CONCORD, NC — A thrilling finish on Monday night’s World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series iRacing Invitational from virtual Knoxville Raceway on DIRTVision presented by Drydene saw Logan Seavey grabbing the lead with two to go and holding off Kaeden Cornell and Mike McKinney for the victory, his first win for Rocket Chassis.
When the virtual dust settled, the drivers took to Twitter to talk about the exciting event and turn their focus to Tuesday’s World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink iRacing Invitational at 7 pm ET on DIRTVision, and Wednesday night’s World of Outlaws Invitational at 8 pm ET on FOX Sports’ FS1 network:
What a deal. Stayed close and capitalized when they got racing. Glad to put the @Rocket1_Racing in victory lane where it’s used to being! Thanks @Rocket_Chassis and @WoOLateModels. Hopefully we can do it again Wednesday on @FOXSports. https://t.co/3esFZUVTWZ

Hope we put on a good show for everyone on @dirtvision. Our @NosEnergyDrink, @bilsteinUS machine just needed a little more at the end…will fine tune and be back with the @WoOLateModels on @FOXSports Wednesday night!

Felt good to be in the hunt at the end in something out of my comfort zone. Might have made it interesting if I didn’t catch the fence with 3 to go… https://t.co/g6EUcNsdo5

What I learned on @iRacing tonight with the @WoOLateModels 1-I need a better computer to see the groove. 2-I need to pay someone to setup the car. 3-That @Mike_McKinney dudes pretty good. 4-I can beat @Bloomquist_0 virtually in a C main!
