JAMAICA, Va. – Justin Williams collected his second-straight victory in the Victory Lap Pro Late Model division Saturday evening at Virginia Motor Speedway.
This week though it wasn’t as easy as Williams had to work through lapped traffic to catch Jared Powell to even have a chance to battle for the lead.
On lap 20 of the 35 lap feature Powell would drift up in turn two, giving Williams the chance to get by for the lead. Once out front Williams would hold a three car length cushion over Powell to the checkers.
“If not for that heavy traffic I am not sure I could have gotten by Powell and Almond, my car could just drive through traffic a little easier,” said Williams in victory lane.
Jared Powell, Corey Almond, Matt Glanden and Davis Lipscombe rounded out the top-five.
In other action, Tim Shelton took the lead from Joe Weiss on lap 18 and then went on to scored his first Truckin Thunder Sportsman of the season. Hunter McClendon took the lead on lap 19 of the Budweiser Modified feature and never looked back to score his first win of the year. In the Collision One Limited Stock Car 25-lap feature, James Givens grabbed the lead at the start from his fourth place starting spot and went on to score his second win of the season.
