MARTINSVILLE, Va. – The field is set for the 25th annual ValleyStar Credit Union 300 at Martinsville Speedway.

Mike Looney and Jonathan Findley split a pair of last chance qualifying races on Saturday ahead of the silver anniversary of the late model stock car special, leading the transfers into the main event.

Looney, the 2016 ValleyStar Credit Union 300 winner, made a late pass of race-long leader Matt Leicht with four to go in regulation and then hung on in a double overtime finish to win the first 50-lapper.

Leicht finished second ahead of Jacob Heafner, who ran up from 13th to third, Kres VanDyke and Kyle Dudley.

Mike Darne, Colin Garrett, Justin Hicks, Jimmy Wallace and Zack Clifton also transferred in out of the first last chance qualifier.

Including the two green-white-checkered attempts, the first 50-lap sprint was slowed by caution eight times, including two red flags – one with three to go to remove the damaged car of Bruce Anderson from turn one and a second after the first overtime try for fluid from the Owen Smith machine.

The second last chance qualifier, which started off appearing that it would be far tamer than its earlier counterpart, ended up just as crazy as the first and extended to 71 laps due to four overtime tries.

However, the battle for the lead was relatively tame. Findley took command from polesitter Brennan Poole on lap eight and led the rest of the way, beating Sammy Smith to the checkered flag in a marathon event.

The first overtime was set up by a hard crash off turn four between Chase Dixon and Brandon Pierce, which led to Dixon nearly getting airborne and sparked one of three red flags in the second last chance qualifier. Both Dixon and Pierce were checked and released from the infield care center with no injuries.

After that, a pair of multi-car crashes – between multiple drivers racing for the final transfer spots – and then a spin by Amber Lynn moved the needle all the way to a fourth overtime before the second qualifier finally reached the checkered flag under green.

Behind Findley and Smith, , Davin Scites, Derrick Lancaster and Stacy Puryear crossed third through fifth, respectively. Eric Winslow was sixth, while Tyler Matthews finished seventh with no right-side sheet metal on his No. 63t.

Grayson Cullather, Poole and Austin Thaxton completed the top 10, with Poole rallying back after being involved in a restart incident on the second overtime and going a lap down due to a flat left-rear tire.

The green flag for the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, with live coverage through FansChoice.tv and the Motor Racing Network.
