Jeep Van Wormer Returns to Competition in Summer Nationals Double Dip at Oakshade

(PINCONNING, MICHIGAN) Jeep Van Wormer and the Iron Motorsports team returned to racing action on July 15-16 at Oakshade Raceway in Wauseon, Ohio in the final two UMP DIRTcar Summer Nationals events of the 2016 season. On Friday night in the $5,000 to win weekend opener, Jeep timed in thirteenth fastest in Group B during qualifying and later grabbed the third transfer spot through his heat race. After starting the 40-lap main event from the inside of the sixth row, Jeep was able to move up inside of the top ten to eventually earn a solid tenth place performance.

Saturday's "Hell Tour" finale at Oakshade marked the track's annual 'Birthday Race' and boasted a $10,000 payday. Jeep clicked off the eighth quickest lap in Group A during time trials prior to placing fifth in his stacked heat race. After grabbing the second and final transfer spot through the B-Main, the Pinconning, Michigan ace was an early retiree in the 60-lapper. Jeep pulled off the one-groove racing surface and settled for a nineteenth place effort. Full results from both weekend events can be accessed online at www.thehelltour.com.

The #55 team has elected to take the upcoming July 22-23 weekend off from competition, but will scour area track and series schedules for upcoming race dates. Keep visiting www.JeepVanWormer.com for the latest news and schedule information concerning the Iron Motorsports team.
