MINERAL WELLS, WV – May 30, 2010 – Steve Shaver turned West Virginia Motor Speedway's 'RaceFest World Championships' into the 'ShaverFest.'
The veteran driver from Vienna, W.Va., put together an unforgettable weekend at his reopened home track, completing a sweep of the 'RaceFest' doubleheader with a convincing victory in Sunday night's 40-lap World of Outlaws Late Model Series A-Main.
Shaver, 46, dominated on the eve of Memorial Day, charging off the outside-pole starting spot to lead the entire distance in the K&L Rumley Motorsports Rocket No. 6. He raced virtually unchallenged to the $10,125 victory, which gave him a two-night earnings total of $18,200.
"Coming here this weekend I was kind of hoping for a couple of top fives, maybe a win if everything went right," said Shaver, who had one career WoO LMS triumph before going two-for-two at the sprawling five-eighths-mile oval that sits just 10 miles from his home. "To get a win in both of them, set fast time (on Sunday night) and win two heats – I can't quit smiling."....READ MORE
