On Friday night Donald McIntosh opened the 2017 season at Talladega Short Track (Eastaboga, Alabama) for the rescheduled 26th Annual Ice Bowl. Drawing 50 Super Late Models for the two-day event, McIntosh followed up the 4th fastest time overall in qualifying with a heat race victory. Earning the 3rd-starting position for the $6,000-to-win A-Main on Saturday, Donald held on to a podium finish in the 50-lap main event. Jumping into the 2nd position near the beginning the A-Main, McIntosh closed in race-leader Michael Page on lap-12 due to lap traffic. Unable to make the pass for the lead early in the race, Donald McIntosh made a last lap dash for the top spot but came up short when the checkered flag flew registering a 2nd place finish behind Page with Jason Hiett, Brian Smith, and Jason Welshan rounding out the Top 5.
