Richards Goes Back-To-Back, Scores Sixth World of Outlaws Late Model Series Victory Of 2015 At Potomac Speedway

West Virginia Driver in Position to Sweep National Tour’s Three-Race Mid-Atlantic Trip during Saturday’s Visit to Winchester Speedway

By Joshua Joiner, WoO LMS PR

BUDDS CREEK, Md. – Aug. 14, 2015 – Josh Richards is making the most of the World of Outlaws Late Model Series’ visit to the Mid-Atlantic region.

Richards, the three-time WoO LMS champion from Shinnston, W.Va., raced to his second victory in as many nights Friday evening at Potomac Speedway, leading all but the opening lap of the Gunter’s Honey 50 to earn $10,700 in the second leg of the national tour’s three-race Mid-Atlantic weekend.

Starting from the sixth position, Richards, 27, survived contact in an opening-lap scramble before charging ahead of outside polesitter Morgan Bagley of Longview, Texas, to take the lead on lap two. After holding off a mid-race challenge from Rick Eckert of York, Pa., Richards pulled away for much of the second half of the race before again turning Eckert back amid traffic during the final five circuits.

Richards crossed the finish line with an advantage of 0.879 seconds in earning his sixth WoO LMS victory of the season and the 55th of his career.
