Steve Shaver wins first WoO victory at Attica Raceway Park

Friday, July 24, 2009 – The World of Outlaws completed their first Ohio Late Model Speedweek night of racing after raining out the night before at Muskingum Speedway. 54 cars would take the clock for qualifying with Cross Lanes, WV's Tim Dohm running a 14.514 in Tracy Seymour's 17T to set fast time. Outside of the Ohio area late model regulars, and visiting series Outlaws, was Iowa's Jill George, and several Pennsylvania racers, including Boom Briggs, Mike Knight, Gregg Satterlee and Rob Blair. Attica Raceway Park would host there weekly 410 winged sprints along with the visiting tin tops for an action packed night at the 3/8's mile Ohio track. Heat race winners would include Satterlee, Darrell Lanigan, Steve Shaver and Michigan racer Jeep Van Wormer. B-mains would be taken by Brady Smith and the Million Dollar Man Donnie Moran from Dresden Ohio.
Although Steve Shaver would take the #30 Drywall Systems sponsored Rocket to victory lane from the outside pole, that doesn't mean it was easy. Tim Dohm would drop out a few laps in with mechanical issue, and there would be two cautions for Brent Robinson and Donnie Moran. Brent would be a single car spin, and Moran's spin would include contact with Shane Clanton. Darrell Lanigan, Josh Richards and Steve Francis try there hardest to catch Shaver. With a few laps to go Francis would pass Lanigan for 2nd but run out of time. This was Shaver's first World of Outlaws victory, and he go to celebrate it on his son's eighth birthday.
