Chuckie Creech Takes
Second in EDT Racing Pro Class
::Continued::
CCR Swaybars / WISECO / Houser Racing’s Chuckie
Creech got himself off to a great start as well.
Creech launched off the line and trailed Riley
instantly into the holeshot corner in second place.
At this point, Creech knew he had not only Riley
to beat to the podium plateau, but had to also
defend his position from the onset of the other
racers behind him. Creech did was he does best
however, and rode very clean laps, remaining mistake
free for all twenty laps to lock up a second place
ride for himself for the first round of the season.

Creech claimed a 2nd place finish in the
Pro Class

“I had a great start to that race and Eric from
Close Encounter Whitetails came down and grooved
about twelve tires for me in this hot heat and
if it wasn’t for that I might not of been able
to hang on for those twenty laps so I gotta thank
him. The WISECO brakes kept me coming into the
tight corners nice and smooth and these new Elka
shocks really were great over the rough stuff
on the track. They are brand new and I’m getting
used to them and dialing them in. I’m happy with
the way this got started off and I think we can
continue to run right up front for the rest of
the season,” said Creech on the podium.
Tru-Way Racing / Walsh Racecraft / PEP’s Brian
Ace also got off to a good start after coming
out of the holeshot with a ton of a speed and
sliding around the first bend alongside of Michael
Houghton. Ace was able to quickly move into third
place by the completion of lap number one and
then began to work his way toward Creech who was
in second place. Ace kept a clear mind for the
remaining nineteen laps and pushed his bike to
the limits without fail to end up in third place
on the podium at the opening round.

Ace claimed the final spot on the Pro
Podium

“All I had to change from the Pro-Am race to
the Pro was just a set of new Hoosier tires. The
bike was running excellent and it was dialed in
for the track perfectly. I need to work on my
endurance a bit and my training but other than
that I’m really excited about being up here. The
Frailey family, my Dad, and everyone who comes
to these races with us, including out sponsors,
I can’t thank enough. It’s a huge team effort
and we made it up on the box so I’m super pumped
with that,” said Ace excitedly on the podium.
Earnhardt Racing’s Michael Houghton got off to
a great start in third place out of the holeshot
but slid back to fourth place where he and B&B
Racing’s Aaron Medlin battled for the remainder
of the race. Houghton kept his composure however
and came away with fourth place leaving Medlin
to round out the top five.
