Jackson Dominante In X-Mod Finale, Wolff Wires Mods In Vado

VADO, N.M. — In Shocker Hitch X-Mod competition presented by Barnett Harley-Davidson, Kris Jackson charged to the lead on the third lap, and once again dominated the remainder of the 25-lap feature event.

Jackson won his fourth feature event of the 2023 miniseries by a whopping 6.502 seconds over Jimmy Ray with Gabe Hodges, Nate Reinke, and Preston Carr completing the top-five finishes.

On the heel of his four wins, Jackson claimed the Arizona Differential Four-Or-More Challenge Bonus, which was worth $2,500. Additionally, via added money to the purse from Aeroseal, Jackson received $3,000 in lieu of the originally scheduled $1,000 top prize. On top of everything else, the Lebanon, Missouri claimed the X-Mod miniseries championship.

The Mesilla Valley Transportation / Border Tire Modifieds presented by Ranch Milagro main event found Tyler Wolff wiring the field from the outside-front-row starting spot. While he led all 25 laps, Wolff had to survive a late-race charge from Dan Ebert to claim the $2,000 victory by 0.055 seconds.

Following the lead duo across the line was Tanner Mullens, Darron Fuqua, and Dereck Ramirez.

With his fifth-place finish Ramirez clinched the Modified miniseries championship.
