SOUTH BOSTON, VA (August 13) \u2013 Veteran Jeff Fultz outlasted a strong field of Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South Super Late Models Saturday<\/span> night at South Boston Speedway to take his long awaited first career victory in the series.\u00a0 The win by Fultz was made even more meaningful by the fact that he becomes the 50th<\/sup> different winner in the series dating back to its beginnings in 2006.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just love South Boston and I don\u2019t get to race much anymore, plus the guys worked all day in 100 degree heat to get this car right,\u201d said Fultz of his milestone win.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019ve never won a PASS race, three white flags and we\u2019re leading and the caution comes out and we end up losing.\u00a0 It\u2019s a tough series and they race everywhere.\u00a0 I\u2019ve finally got something to put on my resume that I have been waiting a long time to get.\u201d<\/p>\n
