What were you doing at the ripe old age of 4? Mason Massey was winning races. And we’re not talking about on a PlayStation or Xbox. Real life, wheel-towheel action in a quarter midget. Barely free from a onesie, Massey captured his first checkered flag in just his fifth race. “It was awesome for me,” Massey said. “I’ve always loved racing. I just focused hard at it.” How’s your self-esteem now, folks? The 15 year old brings his steelyeyed determination the Allen Turner Pro Late Model Series race tonight. In the first PLM race in March, Massey ran up front for most of the race before finishing eighth. “It was awesome, for sure; an awesome racetrack,” said Massey, who was unable to compete in the second PLM race after it was postponed because of rain. “It was a lotta fun. The caution flag came out late and we got hung out. I don’t know what happened, but I loved it down there for sure.” And the legions of Five Flags fans are sure to grow to love Massey, as well. Not just because of his limitless potential,. They’ll love him for the car he drives, the familiar No. 9 for Bill Elliott Racing.
