As the race went green Bagley shot to the lead before Moyer Jr. took over the lead a couple of laps later. Morgan would storm back to the lead on the tenth lap and would hold the spot until lap 19 when Billy Moyer raced past for the top spot. Bagley would maintain the second spot until mechanical issues ended Moyer's run on lap 30, allowing Morgan to re-inherit the lead. He would never give up the lead again as he led the final ten laps to claim the richest payday of his career. Morgan was followed across the finish line by Tim McCreadie, John Anderson, Billy Moyer Jr., and Jimmy Mars. Full results are available at www.USARaceway.net.
As a result, he started deep in a b-main, and his luck would not be any better as he was collected in a lap one melee, which damaged the rearend of the car ending his day. Full results are available at www.USARaceway.net.
For Friday's program Bagley started sixth in the first heat and advanced to a fourth place finish, which left him one spot short of a transfer to the feature. As a result, he started on the pole of a b-main, which he won to earn the 19th starting spot for the 50 lap, $10,000-to-win feature. Unfortunately he would retire early in the feature with mechanical issues to a 25th place finish. Despite not getting the finish he wanted Bagley was elated to just make the main event against a field of 66 of the nation's best drivers. On Saturday night with national television cameras filming live, the team entered the second $10,000-to-win, 50 lap event of the weekend. Via qualifications he started third in his heat race, and early in the event raced to as high as the second position before slipping back to a third place finish, which still earned him the 16th starting spot for the finale. In the main event he would be credited with a 21st place finish in the final rundown. Full weekend results are available at www.WoOLMS.com.

October 1st, 2011 - Morgan officially concluded the 2011 O'Reilly SUPR Super Late Model season on Saturday night at 171 Speedway (Leesville, Louisiana). With 16 cars entered, Morgan started seventh in his heat race on a track where passing was difficult. He would register an 8th place finish in the heat, which left him starting 16th in the main event. For the feature, better track conditions would greet the competitors early in the race as Bagley would work his way forward to the sixth position before seeing the track take rubber. Over the remainder of the event he would ride in line to a sixth place finish behind race winner, Rob Litton, Timothy Culp, Ronny Adams, Chris Holley, and Allen Tippen. Via his performance, Bagley earned the Hard Charger Award. Once again he is the 2011 O'Reilly SUPR Super Late Model Champion and series' Rookie of the Year.

In the b-main, he would quickly battle his way forward to contest the final transfer spot with Timothy Culp. The pair would have a heated battle for the final transfer position before seeing Bagley come up just short of claiming it. Luckily a last chance qualifier was held, and Bagley would win the race from the front row to earn the 25th starting spot for the 100 lap, $20,011-to-win feature. Early in the feature, Morgan would dodge several cautions as he began racing his way forward. By the race's midway point he was up to the fifth position, and over the next several laps he would reach as high as the second spot before his groove began to go away. He would still manage to record a very strong fifth place finish behind race winner, Billy Moyer, Bub McCool, Eric Cooley, and Brian Rickman!. Full results are available at www.ColumbusSpeedway.net. September 20th, 2011 - By Wayne Harris, Team 14 PR Manager For the first time in 15 years a Texan has won the SUPR Series Championship. With only one race remaining and a point lead of 171 points, Morgan Bagley has been named the 2011 O'Reilly SUPR Super Late Model Series Champion. There was a possibility that there would be one additional race scheduled, but O'Reilly SUPR posted on their Facebook page this morning that the race would not be scheduled. Since the maximum points available in any event is only 130 points, Morgan and Team 14 have clinched the title. Team 14 would like to thank the following sponsors: P & W Sales, DDC, Southern Transport, P & W Iron Works, 360 Motorsports, MSI, Hyperco, Club 29, Mr. Frank Motorsports, D & T Racing, Outerwears, J & J Motorsports, and Sunoco Race Fuels. The team will compete in the last SUPR race at Leesville, LA on October 1st as well as several other open shows over the next two months. Thank you to all the fans and team members, as without them this would not have been possible.
Despite not having the outing that the team had hoped, Morgan holds a 171 point lead in the O'Reilly SUPR Super Late Model standings heading into the season finale at 171 Speedway (Leesville, Louisiana) in two weeks. Full results and the latest standings are available at www.SUPRRacing.com.
With just a couple of O'Reilly SUPR Super Late Model events remaining, Bagley continues to lead the standings by over 200 points over Culp. Full results and the latest standings are available at www.SUPRRacing.com.
As a result the lone event entered for the weekend was held on Friday night at USA Speedway (Sterlington, Louisiana) as 28 cars entered the $2,000-to-win event. It would prove to be a rough night for Bagley as contact in the feature relegated him to a 13th place finish at the checkered flag at the 1/4 mile oval. Full results and the latest standings are available at www.SUPRRacing.com.
Early in the event he would slip as far back as the seventh spot due to a chain reaction, brake-check. He would quickly rebound into the top five as he began to battle with Ray Moore for position. Bad luck would find Bagley on lap 14 as the front runner made contact with a lap car, causing the lap car to spin, which also caused Morgan to spin. As a result he had to go to the tail of the field in the 18th position. Despite being at the tail of the field he would quickly begin working his way forward, and by the halfway point he was back into the top five and working his way forward. However, his bad luck would be far from over as the caution flag flew with eight laps remaining, and on the ensuing restart the leaders would stack up. Bagley would go to the highside to avoid contact, but Ronny Adams would make contact with him resulting in a flat tire and a bent wheel. Once again he ducked into the pits and rejoined the tail of the field before finally ending the night in the 10th position. Morgan holds a 181 point advantage over Timothy Culp in the latest series' standings. Full results and the latest standings are available at www.SUPRRacing.com. August 19th, 2011 - The team traveled to the 19th Annual COMP Cams Topless 100 as they took part in an Open Practice Session on Thursday night before entering the first leg of the event on Friday night. With 74 Super Late Models entered, it would be prove to be a frustrating outing for the team as Morgan struggled in time trials causing him to start last in his heat race. He would earn a few spots in the heat, but still finished deep in the heat race. As a result, the team has made the decision to bypass the finale for the event and travel to Jones Motor Speedway (Chatham, Louisiana) on Saturday night for a $2,500-to-win, O'Reilly SUPR Super Late Model event. The Apparel section has been updated with the brand new Morgan Bagley shirts. August 13th, 2011 - After practicing on Friday night at Greenville Speedway (Greenville, Mississippi) in preparation for the $4,000-to-win, O'Reilly SUPR Vs. PRO Dirt Car Series event that was slated for Saturday night, Morgan saw his weekend end before it started as rain forced the postponement of the event until September 3rd. August 6th, 2011 - The team entered a single event over the weekend as they traveled to 171 Speedway (Leesville, Louisiana) on Saturday night with a $2,500-to-win, O'Reilly SUPR event. With 22 cars on hand, Bagley started seventh in the first heat race, and worked his way to a second place finish to earn the second starting spot for the feature. In the feature, Bagley would battle loose conditions early in the race as he fell back as far as the seventh position by the race's midway point. However, as the 50 lap affair progressed Morgan would recover to race his way through the pack to a third place finish as he predominantly utilized the high groove. He would cross the finish line behind race winner, Timothy Culp, and Ronny Adams. Morgan now has a 223 point advantage over Culp in the series' standings.
