Josh Richards Sweeps Illini 100 Weekend
Becomes the first driver to win both feature races during the Illini 100 weekend
FARMER CITY, Ill. – April 3, 2016 – Josh Richards completed the weekend sweep of the Douglas Dodge Ram Trucks Illini 100 at Farmer City Raceway on Sunday night as he scored his fourth World of Outlaws Craftsman® Late Model Series victory of the season. The Shinnston, W.V. -native is the first driver to sweep the race weekend since the Illini 100 became a full-weekend event in 2014.
“The track was a little greasy early, and we didn’t know how hard we should run,” said Richards, who took home a $15,000 prize tonight for his No. 1 Valvoline Rocket Chassis team. “It’s been an incredible year. This year is just getting started.”
