One of Virginia’s most cherished short-track traditions, the Virginia Late Model Triple Crown, makes its return this weekend at South Boston Speedway with the Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200.
Since 2012, the Virginia Triple Crown has tested Late Model Stock competitors across three of the state’s iconic tracks. The three-race stretch starts at South Boston each year, proceeding into Langley Speedway’s Hampton Heat before culminating with the prestigious ValleyStar Credit Union 300 at Martinsville Speedway.
C.E. Falk III’s victory at South Boston in 2012 played a crucial role in his securing the inaugural Virginia Triple Crown title. Among those who have joined Falk as a Virginia Triple Crown champion are Lee Pulliam, Timothy Peters and Peyton Sellers, the latter of whom has the most titles with five in total.
With average finish dictating who brings home the Virginia Triple Crown at Martinsville in September, a strong performance in the Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 is a necessity to be a title contender. South Boston is expected to produce plenty of on-track fireworks as drivers battle to claim the Virginia Triple Crown’s opening leg.

Entry list
Nearly 40 drivers are expected to participate in Saturday’s Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200.
Headlining the entry list is defending NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series champion Connor Hall, who is also the most recent Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 winner. Hall will pursue his first Virginia Triple Crown title behind the wheel of JR Motorsports’ No. 88 Chevrolet after competing for Nelson Motorsports in 2024.
Replacing Hall in Nelson’s No. 22 Toyota is Carson Loftin, a standout in Modified competition who is embarking on a full season of Late Model Stocks with the program. Loftin is looking to join Bobby McCarty and Timothy Peters as a Virginia Triple Crown champion for Nelson with a strong three-race stretch starting this weekend.
McCarty is also heading to South Boston this weekend, this time behind the wheel of his own No. 6 Late Model Stock. One of the most successful Late Model Stock competitors over the past decade, McCarty will look to kickstart another successful Virginia Triple Crown campaign with his third Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 victory Saturday.
Everyone contesting the entire Virginia Triple Crown will have to deal with Peyton Sellers, who is the reigning series champion. Boasting an impressive record at South Boston that includes seven track championships, Sellers is also a two-time Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 winner like McCarty, having visited Victory Lane in 2018 and 2019.
Other names set to compete in the Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 are Trevor Ward, Deac McCaskill, Doug Barnes Jr., Landon Huffman, Landon Pembelton, Ronnie Bassett Jr. and Tate Fogleman.

Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 history, winners
Connor Hall’s triumph in the 2024 Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 formally brought the winner’s trophy back the state of Virginia.
During the event’s first decade, it was primarily dominated by drivers born outside of Virginia. Lee Pulliam was the most efficient of the outside invaders, as he put together a commanding run that saw him claim six consecutive Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200’s from 2011-16.
After Pulliam’s dominance ended, Virginia-born competitors have since continued battling interlopers for victories in the Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200. The Virginia natives seek to start their own winning streak in the event after Hall ended a three-year drought for them with a spirited drive from the rear of the field in 2024.
Hall is one of four former winners on the 2025 Thunder Road Harley-Davidson 200 entry list and one of two from Virginia. He is joined by fellow Virginia resident Peyton Sellers along with Bobby McCarty and Deac McCaskill, with the latter two hailing from North Carolina.
