Story By: RYAN DELPH / CONLEY MOTORSPORTS – WHEELERSBURG, OH – The Conley Motorsports, Inc. (CMI) teams stayed in the Buckeye State on September 29-30, as the World of Outlaws CASE Construction Late Model Series sanctioned a pair of events up the road at Atomic Speedway in Alma, Ohio.
In the $10,000 to win weekend opener last Friday night, Rod Conley received a track provisional to advance into the 40-lap feature and later blasted past twelve competitors to salvage a thirteenth place showing. R.J. Conley unfortunately missed out on the A-Main after finishing seventh in his loaded heat race and fourth in his consolation event.
At Atomic on Saturday evening, a $15,000 paycheck was up for grabs in the weekend finale. R.J. grabbed the second transfer spot through his heat race and later redrew the fifth starting spot for the 50-lap headliner. At the end of the contest, the Wheelersburg, Ohio standout was paid for a thirteenth place performance against the national touring stars. Rod finished sixth in his heat race, second in his B-Main, and nineteenth in the main event to close out his weekend.
“Hot Rod” and his #71R team will jump right back into competition tonight, October 6 at the legendary Brownstown Speedway in Brownstown, Indiana. The 40th edition of the ‘Hoosier Dirt Classic’ will be held at the 1/4-mile, semi-banked oval and a $10,000 payday will be on the line in the storied event, which will be co-sanctioned by the World of Outlaws CASE Construction Late Model Series and the Valvoline Iron-Man Late Model Series. On Saturday, October 7, R.J. Conley will join his brother Rod at Mudlick Valley Raceway in Wallingford, Kentucky for the inaugural ‘Fall 40’ that also pays $10,000 to the winner.
