A battle for the win turned into controversy in the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) Super Late Model St. Patrick’s 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway.
With two laps to go in the 150-lap event, Cole Butcher and Mike Hopkins made contact battling for the lead and the win. Hopkins spun into the inside wall, collecting Garrett Hall in the process, before driving his car towards Butcher under caution to express his displeasure.
