“Lathroum Scores Late Model Victory Monday at Potomac”

“Troutman Flawless in E-Mod Romp”

By Doug Watson

  Budds Creek MD, (7/3/23)-  Veteran pilot Jamie Lathroum utilized a front row starting spot and key tire management to score his first win of the season in last Monday nights 30 lap Late Model feature at Potomac speedway. The win for Lathroum, worth $3000, came steering his familiar Longhorn no.6 and would be his 19th career Late Model win at the track.
  Lathroum and David Williams brought the field to green with Lathrom sliding into the lead as a field exited turn number two. As Lathroum lead, Tyler Bare and defending track champion Kyle Hardy battled hard for the runner-up spot. Bare finally secured second on lap 23 and would get close to Lathroum on more than one occasion, but Lathroum was up to the challenge and sped off to his overall 68th career Potomac feature win. “We’ve been junk everywhere we’ve been this season and it feels pretty good to win again, especially here at home.” Lathroum stated in victory lane. “Today is my wife Sharon’s birthday and it’s about time I finally got her a win in this race.” Kyle Hardy rode home third with David Williams and Trevor Collins rounding out the top five. Heats went to Lathroum and Hardy.
  Hyndman Pa’s Drake Troutman drove to a convincing win in the 20-lap Mid Atlantic Modified main. Troutman wrestled the lead from Ray Kable on the second lap and drove off uncontested to score his second career Potomac Modified win and first for car owner Jerry Foster, who was Potomac’s 1997 Late Model champion. “Jerry Foster has given me a great opportunity this season to drive his car and it’s nice to get him win here at his home track.” Kable took second with Glen Elliott, Doug Penny and Ryan Toole trailing at the finish. Heats went to Penny and Troutman.
   In support class action, Mikey Latham drove to his second win of the season and career 25th in the 15 lap Hobby Stock feature, Wyatt Hanson wired the field for his second win of the season in the 20 Lap Street Stock main with Richard Inscoe claiming his second win of 2023 in the 15 lap U Car contest.
