PRESS RELEASE – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Jason Rochelle Takes First Ever Keystone Legends Tour Win at
Bridgeport
(June 19, 2009 – Bridgeport, NJ) Jason Rochelle won the first
ever Keystone Legends Tour race at Bridgeport Speedway on Friday
night and used his victory to claim the point lead in the 2009
Tour standings. Rochelle started eighth, took the lead from early
pacesetter Paul McCollum, and held off a late race charge from
last week’s Linda’s Speedway winner, Justin Grim, to post his
second “A” main event win of the season. Although Rochelle drove
a solid race, he also had a bit of luck on his side when a
suspension failure at the checkers put his Cooper Motorsports #148
into the frontstretch wall just after the stripe.
Justin Grim turned in another strong performance to finish in the
runner-up spot, ahead of Paul McCollum, Clinton Penkauskas, and
John Gray. Todd McCollum, Howard Hunter, Jim Black, Drew Weisser,
and Ron Poley completed the top ten.
Rochelle and Tim Henry won heat races for the 18-car field.
The Keystone Legends Tour returns to the Linda’s Speedway dirt on
Friday, July 17th.
