Dedicates Win to Fallen Uncle on Veterans Day
Memphis, TN – November 11, 2014…Rob Warren held off Myles Maxon to win the Veterans Day Special for the Supermodified Ultimate Pavement Racing Series at Memphis International Raceway after leading all 75 laps. Myles Maxon was the only driver within striking distance at the end of the long race, but had to settle for second, while Bob Gangwer joined the top two on the podium with a finish of third place.
Rob Warren led all the laps at the Veterans Day Special to take his third SUPRS win of the season.
“I’d like to thank Myles for the amazing race, that certainly would not have been a win had it not been for ‘Mighty’ Myles Maxon being extremely patient,” said Warren driver of the First to Finish Docks & Hoists roadster.

Maxon came up just 0.083 of a second shy of keeping Warren out of Veterans Day victory lane.
