Youngster Doesn’t Let Mother Nature Or PASS Points Leader Stop Him
CONCORD, NC (June 9, 2007) – Corey Williams outlasted Mother Nature and PASS South points leader Ryan Lawler to earn his first-career PASS South win on Saturday night, winning the several-hour rain-delayed Orange Blossom Special at Orange County Speedway.
Williams was the dominant car all day long at Orange County, winning the pole and leading the most laps. However, it was Preston Peltier that looked like he was going to be the man to beat, grabbing the lead with just over 35 laps to go and pulling away from the field. However, a cut tire and a meeting with the outside wall cut short Peltier’s night and handed the lead back to Williams.
Lawler, who won the first two PASS South races of the season, made a hard charge through the field after cutting a tire late in the race and used timely caution flags to finish second and battle for the lead late in the race.
Dean Clattenburg, Grant Enfinger and Tim Nooner rounded out the top-five finishers.
The PASS South series will return to action on July 3rd at Peach State Speedway in Jefferson, GA.
