Dowling won his very first SK Light Modified start last season and he nearly won the championship as a rookie, finishing second by only 4 points. Dowling made the move into the premier SK Modified® division at Stafford this season, and it only took him four races to put his #57 S+S Asphalt Paving / Dunleavy Truck & Trailer Repair Chevy into NAPA Victory Lane.
