FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Richards helmed the Eric and Kelly Brock, Best Performance Motorsports, Rocket at the event - leading all 60 laps for the win. Tim McCreadie; in the Sweeteners Plus, Pro Power Racing Engines, Longhorn; made a late-race charge on Richards and closed to within two car lengths, but fell just short in the end. Gregg Satterlee finished third in the Satterlee Petroleum, Durham Racing Engines, Rocket Chassis. Clint Bowyer Racing teammates, Darrell Lanigan and Don O'Neal completed the top five finishers. Richards made a clean sweep of the racing activities as he set the overall Miller Welders fast time, and won his heat to earn the PFC Brakes Pole Award for the feature race. "We haven't done a whole lot of racing lately. We only had one Lucas Oil race in June, but we have a busy schedule for July so it's a good way to kick off the month. We have been working extremely hard on this car over the last month. I can't thank everyone enough at Best Performance Motorsports for this opportunity. It's been awesome and a lot of fun," said the 29-year-old Richards. "I want to thank Randall and Tyler and everyone back at the shop. I want to thank my wife for her support and I think we have hit on somethings that is going to help us moving forward." said the driver of the Sunoco, Integra, Hoosier Tires, Riggs Motorsports, Valvoline, Corey Frazier-State Farm, and Alexander Lawn and Landscaping sponsored car. "I thought the track would become bottom dominant, but hats off to the track crew for making it racy, it was a really good night. Now we're off to Mansfield tomorrow night." McCreadie withstood a battle with Satterlee over the last 15 laps of the race to garner a second-place finish and close the gap on Scott Bloomquist in the Championship standings. Bloomquist failed to finish the event and was credited with an 18th place finish. "I didn't need to those three guys running in front of Josh near the end," said McCreadie. "We were gaining on him, but we just couldn't get close enough to make a strong run for the lead. Josh deserved the win and we're happy with second. We gained a bunch of points tonight, and we had a good car tonight. The top was good early on, then some crumbs started to develop up there and the traction started going away. Gregg [Satterlee] and I had a good battle for second for a long time as well." Satterlee continued his season-long improvement by coming home in third. "We got off to a good start in the feature. We went up in that loose dirt and the car felt good and we gained some spots quickly. Timmy [McCreadie] and I went at for second. We raced each other clean and that's the way it should be. Congrats to Josh on the win." Completing the top ten were Jimmy Owens, R.J. Conley, Steve Francis, Eddie Carrier Jr., and Brandon Fouts. Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series
