Brandon Sheppard races into Dirt Track World Championship at Eldora

In his final start of the season at Eldora Speedway (Rossburg, OH), Brandon Sheppard joined 60 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) entries at the “Big E” on Friday evening for the 44th annual General Tire Dirt Track World Championship presented by ARP.

With prelims set for Friday evening, Sheppard logged a sixth-place finish in his heat race, relegating him to a consolation race on Saturday afternoon.

After missing a transfer spot by one car in his B-Main on Saturday, Brandon drove to the Jim Dunn non-qualifier victory, allowing him to tag the tail of the field for the main event or pocket the $3,000 victory.

Electing to start the $100,000-to-win General Tire Dirt Track World Championship in 29th, Sheppard was running in ninth when he lost a motor on the last lap, dropping him to 15th in the final rundown.
