Spring Valley, Minn. ~ Team AMSOIL late model driver Brady Smith out of Solon Springs, Wis. pushed the heat aside last Friday for a record setting night of racing at the Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn.

Smith took part in a pair of World of Outlaws (WoO) Late Model Series races at the 3/8-mile oval.  “The Deuce” started the weekend off on a blistering pace Friday.  He set a new track record at Deer Creek in the preliminary time trials by touring the oval in 14.27 seconds.  Smith then ran fourth in his heat race and finished eighth in the 50-lap final.

On Saturday night, Smith continued his torrid pace at Deer Creek.  The AMSOIL sponsored driver was fourth fastest in qualifying.  He went on to win his heat race and finished fourth in the night’s “Dash” to earn an outside, second row starting spot for the A-Main.  In front of the SPEED Channel cameras, Smith went on to a third place finish in the $10,000 to win feature.

Smith will continue his 2006 summer tour this week at the Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wis.  The young late model driver will take part in a World Dirt Racing League event on Thursday, August 3, followed by the track’s two nights of racing, USA Nationals and $50,000 to win.  Smith will return home on Monday night and take part in a WDRL race at the Superior Speedway.
