PENSACOLA, Fla. – He didn’t have the fastest car at the beginning of Sunday’s Snowball Derby, but when it counted most, there was no stopping Ty Majeski at Five Flags Speedway. He’s such a great race car driver and that battle was really clean at the finish there. But Majeski, making his seventh straight Derby start, had plenty to say. Finally, with 24 to go, Majeski caught Thorn and made his bid for the top spot in turn three. Cleanup ensued before a final sprint to the finish, which required five laps of green flag racing under Snowball Derby rules and pitted Majeski and Thorn alongside one another on the front row. But Majeski had the short way around and, in his mind, the better race car at the end. He was credited with a 34th-place finish of the 36 cars that started the race.
