Rod
Conley Starts Season with Podium Effort in Spring 50; CMI Invades
Atomic on Sunday
(March
27, 2026) Rod Conley and his #71R team kicked
off their version of the 2026 racing season on Saturday night,
March 21 at Florence Speedway in Union, Kentucky. The Northern
Allstars Late Model Series presided over the 50th edition of the
‘Spring 50’ at the Florence-area facility and a $10,000
winner's check was up for grabs.
Rod started off his evening by laying down the sixth quickest
lap in Group A during time trials before advancing to finish
second in his heat race behind only Josh Rice. In the 50-lapper,
"Hot Rod" helped put on a great show for the huge
grandstand crowd by picking off four competitors to land on
the podium in third behind only victor Justin Rattliff and runner-up
Mike Marlar! Full results from Saturday’s season opener

Next up for Conley Motorsports, Inc. (CMI) will be a visit
to Atomic Speedway in Alma, Ohio on Sunday, March 29. The Lucas
Oil Late Model Dirt Series will roar into the Chillicothe-area
venue and a $15,000 payday will be on the line in the annual
running of the ‘Buckeye Spring 50.’ Brothers Rod
and R.J. Conley will both be in competition on Sunday evening
against the national touring stars. Additional information can
