Fyffe, AL — For Kyle Courtney and crew, their Limited Late Model feature win at Fort Payne Motor Speedway on Saturday held a touch more meaning and significance.

The victory came in the 38-lap long Legendary Marvin Ford Classic, an event held in honor of the late Marvin Ford. Ford was the former owner of Fort Payne Motor Speedway, with his family now operating the facility and putting on the special event in his memory.

Courtney dominated the night at Fort Payne, qualifying up front and staying there for the entirety of the Limited Late Model contest. At the end of the night, it would be Courtney taking home the victory, with Oliver Gentry and Kasey Hall rounding out the podium in second and third places respectively.
