Logan Roberson led all 50 laps en route to the FASTRAK Racing Series victory on Saturday night at Kentucky’s Richmond Raceway.
The Waynesboro, Virginia racer pocketed a $5,000 payday for his win at the 3/8-mile clay oval in a race that marked the series return to action after almost a month and a half long hiatus. It is Roberson’s third career series victory.
Despite dominating the event, the win wasn’t as easy as it may sound, as Roberson had to navigate lapped traffic that easily could have cost him the victory, not to mention having to hold off second place Todd Coffman near the end.
“When we got to a couple laps to go, my dad started signaling me that he was on me and them lapped cars, oh my God, they didn’t know where they was going and I was stuck in a pickle and I heard him on the outside and he was beating the wall down,” Roberson said. “My dad was just telling me to take up the whole racetrack and hopefully it would pay off for us and luckily enough, I’m blessed enough and it held off and we got lucky.”
Matt Long finished third, officially and clinching the 2020 FASTRAK Racing Series championship over Latton Sullivan by one point.
Derek Fisher came home in fourth, with Trevor Sise in fifth.
Henry Hornsby III, Branden Dillinger, Josh Dietz, Kyle Murray and A.J. Hicks rounded out the top 10.
The FASTRAK Racing Series is next slated to travel to Georgia’s Toccoa Raceway for the FASTRAK World Challenge on October 2-3, paying $5000 to win. For more information, visit FASTRAKRacing.com.
