Thank you to Jack McNalley at X1R CARS Pro Cup for letting the Allison Legacy Series be part of your programs. Thanks to GOD for having a safe year! This year was a tough one with a low car count due to not only the economy but the fact that tracks and other series have lowered their driver minimum age. We are working to get more drivers racing in 2015. It is the perfect place for someone to come to learn how to drive and how to go racing or just to have fun. A Driver Development program at Allison Brothers Race Cars, Inc. will be in place next season for anyone wanting to drive a Legacy race car. Come join the Allison Legacy Series. Other Champions and Winners did!

DEVIN O'CONNELL 2014 ALLISON LEGACY SERIES CHAMPION

Devin O'Connell has won the 2014 Allison Legacy Series Championship. He won ten races and finished in the top five in all of the sixteen races run this year. His final points were 1619 points, 264 over second place. This was his third year in the Touring Series and before that he ran in the New England region of Legacy racing. In 2012 O'Connell had an average finish of fifth place and finished fifth in points. For 2013 he finished second in points and his best finishes were second place four times. He won his first race, the Allison Legacy Challenge, at the last race at Florence Speedway in 2013. That was a race for all non-winners where he took the checkers and continued his wins in 2014. At the 2013 series Devin won the "Most Improved Driver" and his team got the "Sportsmanship" award. Now a graduate of the Allison Legacy Series, he is ready to move on in his career. O'Connell lives in Madison, Connecticut. It was a pleasure to have him in this series, he is a respectful young man and has become a fierce race car driver who will make any sponsor proud................

HUNTER MOODY RETURNS TO TAKE FLORENCE WIN

Hunter Moody returned to the series to race at Florence Motor Speedway and won the race after leading all but two laps of the fifty lapper. The race was started by points as the weather was to blame for canceling out on Saturday night as scheduled. The race was moved to Sunday along with all of the Florence Fall Classic divisions. Devin O'Connell led the first lap of the race and then the thirty eighth lap after caution was brought for a spin by Jantzen Stirewalt. Stirewalt ran second for much of the race until Justin Allison took over that spot. There was a mandatory stop on lap thirty five and then a fifteen lap shootout after that. There was a lot of hard racing going on in this final race of the season. Allison, the Hard Charger of the Race, finished in second place and O'Connell was third. Stirewalt took the fourth spot and Robbie Allison was fifth. Rookie of the Race Colby White who did a good job of running her first race at Florence finished in sixth place............
