Chad Stapleton Scores First Win of 2012

Edinburgh, Indiana (04/03/12) – Chad Stapleton claimed his first win of the 2012 season on Friday night as he topped the action at Moler Raceway Park in his #32 Rightway Construction/Skeletor Core/Rocket/Jay Dickens Racing Engine Super Late Model.

On Friday night Chad had a great outing as he claimed his first feature win of the 2012 season at Moler Raceway Park (Williamsburg, Ohio) in his #32 Rightway Construction/Rocket/Jay Dickens Racing Engine Super Late Model. He started his night by claiming the win in his heat race to lock into the pole-starting-position for the feature, alongside Wayne Chinn. As the feature went green Chinn would jump to the lead before Stapleton quickly worked his way to the lead, and once there he would never look back on his way to the win, which came over Barry Doss, Duane Chamberlin, John Whitney, and Wayne Chinn. Full results are available at www.MolerRacewayPark.com .

Saturday night found the team at Florence Speedway (Union, Kentucky) for a Weekly Racing Series Event. Thirty Super Late Models entered the event, and after finishing fifth in his heat race Stapleton transferred to the feature event. Early in the feature he would quickly race his way forward to as high as the fourth position before a broken right-front shock forced him pit side with just five laps remaining to a 19th place finish in the final rundown on the 1/2 mile oval. Full results are available at www.FlorenceSpeedway.com .

On his weekend performances, Stapleton noted, “It felt great to get the first win out of the way on Friday at Moler. To be honest though I was just as excited to be so competitive at Florence on Saturday night before the shock broke. That was a solid field of cars, and a track that I haven’t always had the best of luck at so that was a big deal for me.”

This weekend, April 6th-7th, Stapleton will again return to Moler Raceway Park (Williamsbrug, Ohio) and Florence Speedway (Union, Kentucky) for a pair of Weekly Racing Series Events. For more information on the programs, please visit www.MolerRacewayPark.com and www.FlorenceSpeedway.com .
