Column: Sheppard, McCreadie Were In The Mix For Port Royal Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Win Sunday

Column By: LUCAS OIL LATE MODEL DIRT SERIES – PORT ROYAL, PA – Brandon Sheppard finished in second in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series race Sunday at Port Royal Speedway with 2021 Champion Tim McCreadie rounding out the podium in third.

Sheppard, a four-time Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series winner this season, came home in second to Satterlee.

“It was a good track and a good race going on there for a while. I was hanging on as good as I could, I don’t know if I could have passed any of those guys. It was unfortunate was happened to those guys (Larson and Pearson). Gregg got out there and he had a really good run. We are working really hard to get this thing up front and it’s paying off. We are very excited for the rest of the year.”

McCreadie, who ran second to Erb at Hagerstown on Saturday night came back with another podium finish on Sunday evening at Port Royal.

“Hats off to my guys, they work so hard to try and get me feeling competitive again. We took big steps this weekend. I hate it for Earl and Kyle they were up front in Longhorn cars, and they were doing really well. We were there, the longer we ran the better we got. I had a little issue running off of four and I couldn’t run the outside like I wanted to.”
