MIRA LOMA, California -- 19 year old Scott Dodd in his # 25 Chevy Super Late Model posted another top five this weekend at Irwindale Speedway. This rookie sensation has had 6 top tens, 5 top fives and 1 win in his first seven SLM races at Irwindale Speedway in their elite series of NASCAR Super Late Models. Dodd was fastest during practice on Saturday and even though his car was a bit tight during qualifying he was able to qualify third fastest out of the 23 car field.

Dodd who started third in the main had to try and find a line the car liked as it was too loose at the start of the race and then became tight during the final laps of the 75 lap main event. He was able to hold on to fourth and maintain his third place position in the points series only 20 points behind points leader Travis Thirkettle.

Dodd who is surrounded in the points series by past Irwindale Champions, Rip Michels, Andrew Phipps and Travis Thirkettle, who are all really tight in the points series with only 20 points separating them.

Dodd has impressed all with the best series start for a teenager in the highly competitive Super Late Model class in his Jackson SLM race car, powered by a Watkins engine with setup help from Short Track Racecars.
