Dustin Strand Gains Momentum with River Cities Romp
Kings of Dirt and NLRA Action Awaits

Grand Forks, North Dakota (06/18/19) – Dustin Strand built on his recent momentum over the weekend. The driver of the Q&Z Plumbing & Heating No. 71 Keewatin Truck Service/ Walhalla Builders/ Millenium Chassis Late Model raced to the feature win on Friday night at River Cities Speedway.

The victory was his third of the year.

“We battled some issues on Thursday night at Red River, but on Friday night everything went perfectly,” Strand commented. “We had a great car from the drop of the green, and I was able to drive it to the lead. I have no doubt that we’ve got a really good piece this year, we just need a little more luck to fall our way.”

Thursday night found Dustin Strand in action at Red River Co-op Speedway (Winnipeg, Manitoba), where he was competing in a Weekly Racing Series Event. After mechanical issues sidelined him in his 8-lap heat race, Strand passed five cars in the feature to register a sixth-place finish.

The following night at River Cities Speedway (Grand Forks, North Dakota), Dustin secured his spot into the A-Main with a heat race victory. Starting the feature in the fourth position, Strand blasted past Mike Balcaen on the high-side and went on to capture his third win of the season. Balcaen, Brad Seng, Joey Pederson, and Shane Edginton completed the Top-5 finishers.

Saturday’s Northern Late Model Racing Association (NLRA) sanctioned event at Devil’s Lake Speedway (Doyon, North Dakota) fell victim to Mother Nature.
