The Allen Turner Pro Late Models compete four times during the regular season at Five Flags Speedway. The races build up to the Allen Turner Hyundai Snowflake 125 on Saturday, December 5 during the week of the 59th Annual Snowball Derby.

The four-race slate begins with Friday's 100-lap contest. The series also competes on May 15 and August 28 before Night of Champions #2 alongside the Blizzard Series on September 26.

Jake Finch won last year's Allen Turner Pro Late Model championship, while Keelan Harvick made history as the youngest winner of the Snowflake. Finch will be part of Friday's field, looking to add to a collection of victories this year that already includes the Alabama 200 and the Baby Rattler.

Other drivers expected for Friday's Allen Turner Pro Late Model opener include Show Me the Money Series champions Christopher Tullis and Jim Wall and Mobile International Speedway track champion Dustin Smith.

The Pro Late Models will be joined on track this Friday by the Lloyd's Glass Pure Stocks, Gulf Real Estate Pro Trucks, Story & Bleich Crown Stocks and Dock of Pensacola Beach Street Stocks. Grandstand gates open at 5 p.m. CT, with Pro Late Model qualifying at 7 p.m. CT and racing at 8 p.m. Ct.
