WAUSEON, Ohio – July 16, 2016 – Saturday’s DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals feature at Oakshade Speedway was again the Brian Ruhlman and Nick Hoffman show – and again, it was Nick Hoffman who came out on top.
Ruhlman started on the front row and quickly pulled to the lead. It took Hoffman slightly more time to clear for second, but once he did, the two leaders pulled away from the field.
A mid-race restart gave Hoffman the shot he needed – when the green flag flew Hoffman took the highline and battled around Ruhlman. Hoffman maneuvered through traffic late and held off Ruhlman through a restart to sweep the weekend double-header at Oakshade Raceway.
The win is sixth of the season for Hoffman who leads the series points going into the final events.
The DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals returns to action on July 29 and 30 at the Fairbury American Legion Speedway as the tour kicks off a double-header with the World of Outlaws Craftsman® Late Model Series.
