Two-Night, Two-Division Action on Tap for Strand this Weekend
Grand Forks, North Dakota (08/07/18) – Dustin Strand doubled down in Victory Lane over the weekend in his Keewatin Truck Service #71 RHR Brew/ Millenium Chassis Late Model.

“It was a really busy weekend, but it was a great one,†Strand said with a big smile. “To race four times and get two wins and two runner-up finishes feels pretty awesome. There’s a ton of talent in this region, and every time you hit the track you’ve got to be on your toes. I want to thank my team for all of their hard work. It’s pretty awesome to get to drive this car every week.â€
