Trever Feathers has done everything a super late model driver can do to find victory lane this season but has yet to reap that reward. It has been a season of very solid performances combined with heartbreaks.
Saturday night he unloaded at Hagerstown Speedway where he looked like a sure winner just a few weeks earlier, only to have a broken driveshaft end his quest a few laps short.

PUSHING FORWARD
Feathers got the night started by spinning off the 6th quickest lap in qualifying to earn a front-row starting spot in his heat race.
By bringing home a runner-up finish in the heat race, Feathers earned a spot in the Dash. He moved forward once again in that event, advancing from 6th to 4th in the six-lap race.
Feathers started 4th in the 41-lap finale and quickly grabbed the 3rd spot on the opening lap, trailing only leader Gregg Satterlee and polesitter Justin Weaver. On lap 25, he finally worked his way around Weaver to claim the runner-up spot and set his sights on Satterlee who had built a substantial lead.
Although he was able to cut about 1.5 seconds off Satterlee’s cushion, it was too much to overcome in the non-stop race. Virginia’s Feathers took the 2nd place finish 8 seconds behind Pennsylvania’s Satterlee at the well-known Maryland oval.
The solid run came just ten days after he logged a top-five finish at Georgetown Speedway’s Camp Barnes Benefit Race in Delaware. Feathers has three top-five finishes in his last four races, with the lone exception being the night he dominated Hagerstown, leading until the driveshaft failure occurred. He now owns five podium and nine top-five finishes in his 19 super late model races this season.
“Gregg (Satterlee) put an old-fashioned ass whooping on us tonight.”, Feathers said.
“We needed a caution to help us close the gap to have a shot. He (Satterlee) was better than us tonight though, so I don’t know that it would have made a difference. I was decent throughout the race and when my tires came in I got a little better but I never felt great. I’m happy to get 2nd because I didn’t feel like we were that good.”
“I wasn’t leading tonight, so of course, there were no cautions”, Feathers laughed, referring to having to endure a series of cautions every time he led a race this year.
“Last year after we got back in our car it seemed like we could do no wrong; everything fell our way. This year that hasn’t been the case. The breaks have worked against us. I have led three races but couldn’t close the deal. Started on the front row of another and blew up coming to the green. That’s how our year has gone.”
“That’s racing though. We know that. We’re going to keep showing up, keep working hard, and the wins will come again.”
UP NEXT
Upon returning to the shop Saturday night, Feathers discovered an issue with the oil pump on his Team Zero Race Cars, Fox Racing Shox, Leggett Engine Research, North River Farm, McFarland Custom Painting & Wall Coverings, George’s Used Cars, Martin’s Pumping, Feathers & Son’s Roofing, Coffelt Graphics, Shane McDowell Racing No.20. Resolving that issue will be first on the agenda this week, then the team will begin preparations for the Lucas Oil Late Models Rumble by the River event at Port Royal Speedway on August 23rd and 24th.
