Park Drives Back To Victory Lane

BEAVER FALLS, N.Y. – Veteran Steve Park showed he hasn’t forgotten his way to Victory Lane, leading the final five laps Saturday evening at Adirondack International Speedway en route to the win in The Edge Hotel 150 presented by Casella Waste Systems.



It was Park’s first NASCAR Camping World Series East victory in 13 years. He won twice in 1996, with the latter coming at the now closed Nazareth (Penn.) Speedway on July 1. Since, he has collected wins in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, NASCAR Nationwide Series and NASCAR Camping World Series Truck Series. He has also won on the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour.



Park appeared on the verge of the win in the NASCAR Camping World Series previous race, July 11 at Thompson (Conn.) International Speedway, only to lose the lead late to teenage rookie Ryan Truex.
 
I went to this, it is an interesting track. It was a good race and it went by really quick and they made sure it started on time. Started at 6:30, i stayed and watched the burnout and was on the road by 7:30. I've been very impressed by Jody Lavendar this year, 3rd at Adirondack and the other one I went to(Greenville) he had a top 3 at. The one I went to last year his team did not run well.

How much are tickets? An hour race is not really worth my time. Was there anymore racing going on?

Tickets were $30 in advance $35 day of show. There were hardly any cautions so that is why it went by so quick, the racing was really good the whole race. Leaders and farther back were battling all the time. There were some other races after it, mini cup cars and late models, but it was a 7 hour drive so I wanted to get back home after the Camping world race. I like tracks that actually make sure they get the main race in at the scheduled time, Tyler County(WV) is very good about that too.
 
Good for Steve, I did not know he was still driving. I hated his Cup career was shortened by head injury.
