GRAHAM, Washington -- Late Model Challenge Series driver Troy Conrad did what he did the last time the series was at Wenatchee Valley Super Oval , won! This one did come as easy as the first. With a green white checkered finish ready to restart race leader Wes Rhoads had to exit just before the green with a flat tire. Conrad second at the time inherited the lead and the win.
Conrad a bit subdued in victory circle said “I was looking forward to racing Wes in the last two laps. I was sorry to see him have to leave. Sometimes luck comes your way, I have been on the other end that luck.” Conrad maintains the lead in the chase to the championship after the fourth of the ten race series.
Finishing second Christian Roeder led early but a tangle with a slower lapped car forced him to fall back. Kevin Richard finished third ahead of Billy Coats who has found a home in the LMCS.
Next Up for the LMCS will be Saturday July at Kalispell Raceway Park in Kalispell, MT and staying in Montana race the next night Sunday July 2 at Mission Valley Speedway in Ronan.
