It was an elbows-up evening in the Buckeye State for the Tezos All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Mobil 1, as round four of Ohio Sprint Speedweek presented by Cometic Gasket took “America’s Series” to a heavily-saturated Wayne County Speedway in Orrville, Ohio. Despite receiving an inch of overnight rain, the show went on as scheduled with “Sunshine” Tyler Courtney earning the $10,000 Duffy Smith Memorial prize. The Speedweek triumph was Courtney’s first of the year, simultaneously bumping his season victory tally to five, as well as 21 for his career.

Courtney, ace of the Clauson Marshall Racing/NOS Energy Drink No. 7BC, started third on the 25-lap Duffy Smith grid, using traffic to power beyond Cole Macedo for second on lap eight, all before pouncing on race leader, Cap Henry, on lap nine. Choppy track conditions as the result of heavy rain left much of the racing surface not for the faint of heart, but Courtney powered through, utilizing the very bottom of the speedway for much of his campaign while avoiding rougher patches.

Winning Quote From Tyler Courtney

“We just tried to stay as free as we could. I think we were a little too free, but I’m not sure you could be ‘too free’ on a surface like this, Just hats off to everyone here at Wayne County Speedway, and a special thanks to all of the fans for coming out and sticking through this. A lot of guys were unsure about tonight, but someone had to leave here with $10,000…it may as well be us.”
