Conley Motorsports, Inc. Finally Opens Season; R.J. Conley Lands Brownstown Top Five
(WHEELERSBURG, OHIO) Three of the Conley Motorsports, Inc. (CMI) drivers finally lifted the lid to their 2020 racing season on Saturday evening, June 6 at Brownstown Speedway in Brownstown, Indiana. A solid 30 car field converged at the 1/4-mile, fairgrounds oval to do battle for the $2,200 top prize. R.J. Conley turned in the fastest lap in his group during the qualifying session prior to picking up a heat race triumph. After starting the 30-lapper from the outside of the front row, R.J. slipped back a few spots early in the race and eventually crossed the finish line in the fifth position behind only race winner Devin Gilpin, Greg Johnson, Shelby Miles, and Jared Bailey.
His brother Rod Conley clicked off the second quickest time in his group during qualifying before finishing fourth in his heat race. The Wheelersburg, Ohio ace unfortunately suffered a flat tire and eventually wound up being paid for a seventeenth place performance in the unsanctioned headliner. J.T. Conley also made his first-ever visit to Brownstown Speedway and ran fifth in his heat race and sixteenth in the A-Main due to a fifth coil issue. Full results from the season opener for three of the #71 teams can be accessed online at www.brownstownspeedway.com.
The same three CMI pilots will return to action over the upcoming June 12-13 weekend. Rod Conley will kick off his weekend on Friday night at Ohio Valley Speedway in Washington, West Virginia, as a $1,500 winner’s check will be on the line. Rod will then join R.J. and J.T. Conley on Saturday evening at Moler Raceway Park in Williamsburg, Ohio. An unsanctioned program will be held at MRP to close out the weekend and each of the three drivers will vie for the $5,000 paycheck.

The respective #71 teams would like to thank the following companies for their support this season: Conley Trucking, Conley River Terminal, XR1 Rocket Chassis, Valvoline Oil, Poske’s Performance Parts, Shain Custom Decals, Draime Racing Engines, Impact Race Gear, FOX Shocks, Integra Racing Shocks, Mason Racin’, Bazell Race Fuels, Beyea Headers, Performance Rod & Custom (PRC), UniFirst Uniforms, Sunoco Race Fuels, Allstar Performance, Delph Communications, Accu-Force Shock Dynos, Quarter Master, Out-Pace Racing Products, Design 500, Jones Racing Products, Hoosier Racing Tires, and Wiles Driveshafts.
