2024 Sunoco Drive For The Cup Late Model Champion: Luke Lebrun

Luke Lebrun is now a three-time Seekonk Speedway track champion. Winning titles in the Seekonk Youth Racing Association Mini Cups, Legends Cars and now the Late Models, Lebrun joins an extensive list of drivers who are three-time champions. That list includes names like Dave Humphrey, Don Dionne, Wayne Dion, George Murray, Dick Houlihan and more. This year, he made it into the Final Four in the Late Models and had the car to beat in the finale of the Sunoco Drive For The Cup. Lebrun charged through the pack to get ahead of all playoff contenders and then drove all the way to the lead, winning the race and the championship all in one.


Lebrun was joined in the Final Four by Charlie Rose, Jacob Burns and Chase Belcher. Rose and Burns dominated the division for a portion of the season. Burns won five times, while Rose was there twice himself. Belcher never won, but put himself in position to chase the crown in the Final Four. In the end, it was Lebrun who came out on top of them all.


Burns finished second in the final points standings, while Rose was third, Belcher fourth and Richie Murray, who won two events, in fifth. Rookie of the Year driver Andrew Gomes wasn’t far behind in sixth, jumping ahead of the other playoff contender this year, Mark Jenison, who finished in seventh. 


In the Late Models this season, Burns led all with five wins, while Lebrun had three, and Rose and Murray had two checkered flags.
