Billy Moyer Jr. Streaks to $10,000 Summer Nationals Win at Oakshadeby Ben Shelton
Batesville, Arkansas (July 14) – Billy Moyer Jr. wired the field on Saturday evening in the DIRTCar Summer Nationals finale at Oakshade Raceway to claim the $10,000 top prize in his Crop Production Services #21jr Longhorn/Pro Power Racing Engine Super Late Model.
Wrapping up the rain-shortened DIRTcar Summernationals Hell Tour, the followers headed to Oakshade Raceway (Wauseon, Ohio) for the track’s annual Birthday Race. Scoring another 2nd quick time of out a total field fifty Super Late Models, Billy landed a heat race victory setting him up for the $10,000-to-win feature event. With a 4th place starting spot, Billy Moyer Jr. took the lead on the first circuit and never looked back. Ousting Casey Noonan, Jason Feger, Dona Marcoullier, and Bobby Pierce, Moyer Jr. led all 60 laps to record his 3rd victory of the season.
A night earlier at Farmer City Raceway (Farmer City, Illinois) Billy finished 5th in the $10,000-to-win, DIRTCar Summer Nationals finale behind race winner, Dennis Erb Jr., Jason Feger, and Brandon Sheppard, while Mason Zeigler rounding out the top five.
Despite his best efforts to overtake Bobby Pierce for the tour championship, Billy came up a little short with a second place finish in the final standings.
“It was awesome to get the $10,000 win there at Oakshade,” commented Moyer Jr. “We obviously wanted to win the championship, but Bobby (Pierce) did a great job, and I congratulate him on the title.”
