SLM Heavyweights Trade
Paint and Verbal Jabs
ROWE & HOGAN TANGLE AT
CHECKERS-ROUND TWO AT OC?
In the world of present-day Super Late Model
racing, names don’t get much bigger than Jason
Hogan and Ben Rowe. Hogan has won at plenty of
tracks throughout the Southeast, taking the
trophies in some of the most prestigious races
in the country. Rowe’s done the same thing up
North and has been competitive every time he’s
headed South, too.
Fittingly, the two SLM giants put on a memorable
battle at the conclusion of the “South Carolina
Clash” event at Anderson Motor Speedway on
Sunday. Racing for third and fourth behind Ryan
Lawler, Gary Greenwood and Johnny Brazier, the
duo of Hogan and Rowe banged fenders countless
times as the white flag flew. Then even as the
checkered flag was in the air, the two weren’t
about to stop their battle.
Hogan and Rowe came together off the fourth
corner as they came to the checkered flag.
Hogan’s car took a hard right across Rowe’s
front bumper into the outside wall, pinning
Rowe’s car against the wall as well. Hogan was
credited with fourth and Rowe fifth, but the
top-five runs were no solace for either drivers.
As their teams traded verbal jabs on pit road
after the wreck, then the drivers got into the
war of words over the entire incident, as well.
