After muscling past Stephen Nasse with 51 laps to go, Michael Hinde led the rest of the way to win the World Crown 300 at Cordele Motor Speedway.

Hinde collected the $35,000 winner's prize in the return of the crown jewel Super Late Model event after a hiatus of more than a decade for the race following Gresham Motorsports Park's closing in 2014.

Seth Christensen qualified on the pole for the World Crown 300 at Cordele Motor Speedway, with a time of 16.262 seconds. He was joined by Gavan Boschele on the front row in the Wilson Motorsports No. 24.

The rest of the starting lineup was determined based on combined scores between the qualifying session and three 25-lap heat races. In the first heat race, Jett Noland took the win ahead of Jake Finch and Michael Goddard.

In the second heat race, Derek Thorn took the win in his first race laps at Cordele, holding off Matt Craig in the opening laps and maintaining the top spot. Craig finished second, with Stephen Nasse third. Johnny Sauter led from green flag to checkered flag in the final heat race, securing the third starting spot in the lineup.

Matt Craig started fourth, with Michael Atwell lining up fifth.
