Richards Wins Battle, Lanigan Claims War!

 World of Outlaws Late Model Series

Josh Richards was on an emotional high after capturing Saturday night’s 50-lap VAULT World Finals dirt Late Model A-Main at The Dirt Track @ Lowe’s Motor Speedway.

“This is definitely my biggest win ever,” said the normally reserved Richards. “To win a race like this, on live T.V. and in front of all these people, is just awesome.

With a packed house of over 14,000 fans and a national television audience on the SPEED cable network looking on, the 20-year-old star from Shinnston , W.Va. , charged forward from the eighth starting spot to overtake Earl Pearson Jr. of Jacksonville , Fla. , for the lead on lap 36. He held off Pearson’s late bid to emerge triumphant.
