Sheppard returns to LOLMDS Victory Lane at East Bay

By Series PR

TAMPA, Fla. - Brandon Sheppard returned to victory lane at East Bay Raceway Park Tampa, Florida on Tuesday night during the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series-sanctioned, Wrisco Industries Winternationals.

It marks Sheppard’s fourth career East Bay victory, and he becomes the third different winner in three series events so far in 2020.

Evans, Georgia’s Brandon Overton charged from his 13th starting spot to finish second, his second podium finish in three series races this season. Tim McCreadie gained seven positions to claim third at the finish. Tim Dohm started on the pole and finished in fourth, while defending series champion, Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Georgia, came home in fifth.

Dohm and Sheppard started on the front row and had a spirited race for the lead in the early going. Sheppard led the first circuit before Dohm assumed the point a lap later. Sheppard regained the lead as he had to hold off a brief challenge from Overton to secure his 16th career series victory.

Sheppard was in contention for the win on Monday night until he and Kyle Bronson got together, he was not going to be denied victory lane in the second race of the week at East Bay.

“I was surprised that he (Overton) was there,” Sheppard said. “There are a lot of tough cars here and especially when I messed up down in that one corner. I started doing something different and I knew the top was going to go away as the race wore on. I probably squeezed Brandon off a little bit going into one there.

“My guys have been doing a great job on the car, but I have been slacking off and it feels good to get back to victory lane with the house car. It is a relief for me for sure because I was beginning to wonder what I was doing out there.”

Mike Marlar, Josh Richards, Jeff Mathews, Devin Moran and Billy Moyer rounded out the top ten.
