“Autumn Woods Still on Top”
Team AMSOIL nabs podium, remains top two teams
Bloomsburg, Penn. ~ Despite the six-week postponement, the AMSOIL sponsored Autumn Woods Racing was looking forward to their battle in Bloomsburg, Penn. on August 19-20. The team, which holds three world championships in short course, off-road racing, headed into the eastern Pennsylvania town with both of its drivers on top of the standings.
Series leader Jeff Dedick headed into Sunday’s final with the top qualifying time, despite heavy rains that soaked the off-road track. Meanwhile, AWR teammate Ricky Brantley, who sits second in the series points race, was right behind Dedick with the second fastest qualifying time. Dedick would sail through the first two rounds, easily taking wins in both races. Brantley, meanwhile, was disqualified after hitting a boundary marker.
Dedick, with the ESPN on-board camera mounted on his truck, moved into the semi-final round and was leading the race when he broke his rear suspension, leaving him with only three wheels to finish the race. Dedick placed third overall on the weekend and gained enough points to stay in first place in the 4-Wheel Jamboree point’s race. Brantley is currently tied for second.
Autumn Woods Racing will travel to Indianapolis September 22-24 for the final race of the year. ESPN will again be on hand to record the event for a future airing.
