2015 EDT Racing Round #4 - Shelbyville, IN Shelby County Fairgrounds June 20, 2015

Earnhardt Racing / TRE Engines / Hoosier Tire’s Michael Houghton was very consistent throughout both starts coming out of the holeshot initially in fifth place. After the restart, Houghton found himself in fourth place behind Garret Keister, but was hot on his heels early on and was able to make the pass into third place. Houghton stayed on the throttle and caught up to Wolff and was closing in, but he didn’t have the drive needed to make a run for the second place position and settled for the third spot on the podium.

#92 Michael Houghton

The Pro-Am Unlimited class and the Pro-Am were run together for this round as there were only two racers in the Pro-Am class, Chuckie Creech and Brad Riley. Riley was able to stay ahead of Creech throughout the entire fifteen lap race to come away with his third Pro-Am win of the season, while Creech earned an easy second place finish for himself as well.

Walsh / Custom Axis / Maul-Tech ATV’s Nathan Wolff had a great showing in the Pro-Am Unlimited class as well coming away with the win but it wasn’t as easy as just getting out front off the start. Wolff had to battle his way to the front after getting off to a mid-pack start and was into third place by the end of the first lap.

Daniel Chepkauskas was out front with the holeshot but quickly came under attach by Houghton in second place and Wolff in third who were both pushing for the front of the pack.

Once around Chepkauskas, Wolff still had to deal with Houghton who was now the leader. Setting his sights on the top step of the podium, Wolff pushed himself to get around Houghton before the fifteen laps had come to a close and secured the win. This win propelled him into the lead for the points chase as well for 2015 EDT Racing Pro-Am Unlimited Class Championship.
