Lance Dewease Races to Second at Port Royal

Lance Dewease Races to Second at Port Royal After Weather Forces  
Change in Plans
FAYETTEVILLE, PA. –Lance Dewease drove the No. 30c Catoctin  
Motorsports to a strong second-place finish in the Sprint feature at  
Port Royal Speedway after the team decided not to go to Eldora for the  
World of Outlaws races at the Ohio track.

With the weather across the middle of the country looking decidedly  
doubtful, Dewease and his team “looked at it [the weather map] on  
Thursday morning and the percentage for rain was about the same at  
Eldora or at home. We decided instead of driving nine hours and  
getting rained on, we’d stay home and get rained on,” he commented.  
That outcome is almost exactly what happened, with the Friday night  
races at Williams Grove Speedway getting rained out.

Port Royal Speedway on Saturday night was a different story however,  
as “things went pretty good Saturday night,” he said. “We started  
twelfth [in the feature] and ended up second.” Dewease obviously knows  
Port Royal’s track well: he has 91 feature wins and holds the 25 and  
30-lap records at the track. “We had a pretty decent car,” he  
continued. “I got the wing too far back and picked up a push on the  
last caution. Once we got going, we got pretty good though.

Dewease says that his next races are planned for Williams Grove on  
Friday night and either Lincoln Speedway or Port Royal again on  
Saturday. If history repeats, he’ll be one to bet on at both tracks.
