Dylan Fetcho cleaned house in the Saturday of Speed Twin 73s at Montgomery Motor Speedway, sweeping the pair of Show Me the Money Series features.

Fetcho won both Pro Late Model contests on Saturday night, scoring a pair of much-needed victories for himself and his team at the Alabama half-mile.

"As a group, we needed this," said Fetcho in victory lane after the second win. "We've had a pretty rough past few months. Tonight, we hit on something and it worked all night long. I can't thank everybody enough that helps us out."

While times have been tough for Fetcho, his speed in practice on Saturday offered a boost of confidence going into the pair of features. The Tennessee native led all but eight laps between the two races in a dominant performance.

"I was pretty confident all weekend," Fetcho said. "We found something that works earlier in the day. We just stuck with it. After that first race, I knew for sure we had something."

While Fetcho celebrated, a frustrated Jake Finch settled for second in both features. Finch entered the evening with a perfect three-for-three record in the Show Me the Money Series in 2026, but finished second to Finch in the opening race.

"Not good enough," said Finch after the first race. "We always have a good race car. I get to let these guys tune on it a bit here. Didn't practice at all today, thought we had a decent car. Just missed it a little bit."

Finch earned the runner-up finish in the second race after a late-race battle with Augie Grill, completing a pass on the final lap

In the first Twin 73, Garrett Gumm took home the third-place finish. After four podium finishes in the Show Me the Money Series last year, this was his best finish in the series in 2026.

"Pretty good for a car that was in pieces on Tuesday," said Gumm. "We were rolling that outside. I think I burned it up too much. The right-rear kind of burned off towards the end, so we fell back pretty good. It was a really good car."

Grill settled for the third-place finish in the second race after the late-race duel with Finch. The veteran racer was pleased with the gains made between features, but also disappointed to lose a spot on the final lap of both features.

"That race was a lot better than the first one," Grill explained. "We just went way too loose there early. That's why we came in and made a few little adjustments there at the first caution in teh first race. It was a lot better there, just needed a little more.

"These guys have been racing a lot more than I have in the past year. It feels good to come out of here with a third and a fifth. Not really what we wanted, and to give up a spot on the last lap of both races makes me feel like a dweeb, but it happens, and I had fun tonight. It was fun racing with these guys. I got to race side-by-side with a lot of the cars in the field, which was fun. Looking forward to the next one."

Nicholas Naugle finished fourth in race one, with Grill rounding out the top five. In the second race, Weston Marthaler and Gumm rounded out the top five.

The next race for the Show Me the Money Series is the Fall Brawl 100 at Montgomery on Saturday, September 19.
