(June 12, 2022) The lucrative 'Eldora Million' and 'Dirt Late Model Dream' were next on the racing calendar for John Henderson, as the #2X team trekked to the famed Eldora Speedway from June 8-11. Following a washout at the Rossburg, Ohio facility on Wednesday night, the entire 'Eldora Million' program was contested on Thursday. During the daytime $12,000 to win preliminary event, John ran eighth in his heat race and twelfth in his B-Main. In the nightcap, which boasted a whopping $1,002,022 top prize, John placed eleventh in his loaded heat race and twentieth in his B-Main.

When the weekend rolled around in the Buckeye State, the attention turned to the annual running of the 'Dirt Late Model Dream.' In the $12,000 to win preliminary show on Friday evening, John finished tenth in his heat race and twelfth in his B-Main. In Saturday's annual 'Dirt Late Model Dream,' which shelled out a $128,000 winner's check, John wound up eleventh in his heat race and twentieth in his B-Main. Although the North Augusta, South Carolina ace was unable to transfer into any of the four main events, he was able to get some valuable laps and experience around the 1/2-mile, high-banked oval.

Rear End Woes Hamper Henderson Over Weekend

(May 30, 2022) John Henderson and his #2X team spent their Memorial Day holiday weekend at both Lake View Motor Speedway in Lake View, South Carolina and Cherokee Speedway in Gaffney, South Carolina on May 28-29. At Lake View on Saturday evening, a $5,000 top prize was up for grabs with the Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series. John started seventeenth on the feature grid in the 40-lap affair, but rear end woes early in the contest dropped him to a nineteenth place effort.

On Sunday at Gaffney, a $7,500 winner's check was on the line in the annual running of the 'Mike Butler Memorial,' which was sanctioned by the Ultimate Super Late Model Series. John stopped the clock twelfth fastest overall during the qualifying session and later rolled off from the outside of the sixth row in the 40-lapper. Unfortunately, more rear end issues relegated the North Augusta, South Carolina ace to a disappointing sixteenth place showing.
