22nd to 2nd at Fairbury DIRTcar Summer Nationals

Bobby put on a show for the Fairbury fans Saturday night as he charged from his 22nd starting position to grab a runner-up finish in the 50-lap DIRTcar Summer Nationals feature. Battling electrical issues throughout the night, he had to take a points provisional to race in the main event. He was on the hunt for the front from the start as he jumped to the top of the track and moved up to 13th when the first caution came out on the ninth lap. By lap 23, he was running fifth and looking for more. With nine laps to go, Bobby had made it up to second. The track started taking rubber late, and he was unable to advance one more position to complete the comeback. It was another great run at Fairbury this season for Bobby as he hopes to continue the momentum into next month’s Prairie Dirt Classic and finally capture his first PDC win.
