Lancaster Speedway's Victory Lane is Sweet for Hometown Late Model Racer
- Jul 10, 2009
Lancaster Speedway in Lancaster, South Carolina is one of the few big half-mile dirt tracks that remain in the South East. For racer Chris Steele, it is his hometown track and a place to take his Crate Late Model, yellow bodied green GRT chassis with its 350 cubic inch engine and tear into the dirt.
Chris Steele dominated his hometown track of Lancaster Speedway and took first place by an entire straight-away on the half-mile dirt oval
On race day, Steele recorded good lap times during practice and his Chicago Pneumatic Tool Company race team did not think it was necessary to adjust the car.
Steele drew the pole position for his heat race and went on to win the race. “Once again, we decided not to change anything on the car,” said the Late Model Racer. “We were faster than the other race teams there.”
The green flag came out for the feature and it was all about Steele and his yellow No. 2. The race slowed down for one caution on lap 5, but after that, Steele was unstoppable. He was a straight-away ahead of the pack when the race ended.
“The racecar performed flawlessly at Lancaster Speedway during this race,” said Steele. “I really think the K&N products have been a huge advantage in our race program. We have the dyno numbers and on track performance to prove K&N really works. You will never see our race car unload without being equipped with K&N.”
Steele said it was awesome to win at his hometown track. His next event will be a Fastrak Touring event in Hartwell, Georgia.
