LOVES PARK, Ill. — ASA Late Model driver Trent Snyder’s tough-luck season took a turn toward victory lane Saturday at Rockford Speedway.
Snyder, a year removed from winning the ASA LMS Northern Division championship, had been plagued this season by untimely accidents and just plain bad luck — until Saturday night’s King of Rockford 100.
Early leader Brett Moffitt was forced to pit after he made contact with cars involved in a crash in front of him. Moffitt’s flat tire handed the lead to Snyder, who kept it for the duration of the event over Bobby Wilberg in second and Nate Haseleu in third.
Dave Gentile, Jr. and Troy Hintzsche completed the top five.
“The car was great tonight, and I sure hope that this turns our luck around,” Snyder said.
The finish:
Trent Snyder, Bobby Wilberg, Nate Haseleu, Dave Gentile, Jr., Troy Hintzsche, Eddie Hoffman, Chris Eggleston, Jesse Saunders, Rebecca Kasten, Alec Carll, Jason Tyler, J. Herbst, Wes Griffith, Jr., Nick Bussell, Jeremy Miller, Brett Moffitt, Griffin McGrath, Josh Lane, Steven Brooks, Joey King, Michael Bilderback, Michael Pickens, Josh Nelms, Jerick Johnson, Brent Brevak, Jamie Dorsey.
