The following night at Lancaster Speedway (Lancaster, S.C.), Bailes laid down the fastest lap overall in time trials before picking up an 8-lap heat race victory. Starting the $10,000-to-win A-Main in fourth, Ross clawed forward one spot in the 50-lapper to place third behind Brandon Overton and Ricky Weiss with Brandon Sheppard and Dennis Erb Jr. completing the Top-5 finishers.

On Sunday, Bailes stopped at Cherokee Speedway (Gaffney, S.C.) for the Hall of Fame 50. With 22 Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series entries on hand, Ross recorded the fifth fastest time in qualifying, which positioned him on the third row for the $7,500-to-win A-Main. Jumping up two spots in the 50-lap affair, Bailes posted a third place finish behind Austin Kirkpatrick and Brandon Overton with John Henderson Jr. and Chris Madden rounding out the Top-5.
