JAMES McFADDEN WINS SECOND RACE OF US WEST COAST SWING AT DOUGLAS COUNTY

It’s safe to say that Roseburg, Oregon’s Douglas County Dirtrack’s debut with Kubota High Limit Racing was a major hit on Monday night.

A jam-packed crowd came out to the 3/10-mile oval to witness Australian James McFadden collect his third win of the year with the series, and second on this west coast swing.

Starting from the outside of row two, J-Mac quickly took the Roth Motorsports #83 to the second spot on the initial start and started hounding early leader Justin Sanders. After chasing the #2X for the opening nine laps, J-Mac attacked on the second restart of the race and assumed the lead when he was able to power around the outside of Sanders through turns one and two.

From there, it was about surviving an intense bout of lap traffic while Sanders kept the pressure on through the closing stages.

The Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia native was able to survive and advance to Whiskey Myers Victory Lane – his fourth overall win of the year with Dennis and Teresa Ro

Whiskey Myers Victory Lane – his fourth overall win of the year with Dennis and Teresa Roth’s race team.

Aromas, CA native Justin Sanders finished second for the third-straight race at Douglas County Dirtrack. He’s now finished runner-up twice this swing with Kubota High Limit Racing, both to McFadden wins. He’ll have four more opportunities this week to get that first-career Kubota High Limit Racing victory he’s been so close to.

Rounding out the podium was the fan favorite, Tanner Holmes. Hailing from down the road in Jacksonville, Oregon, nobody all night long received more cheers or a bigger ovation than the home state hero. He capped off a career-night close to home by driving from fifth-to-third in his #18T, earning his first-ever podium finish with Kubota High Limit Racing.

Rounding out the top-10 at Douglas County Dirtrack was Justin Peck, Corey Day, Cory Eliason, Spencer Bayston, Brad Sweet, Rico Abreu, and Brent Marks.
