July 19th, 2016 by Chris Wolfson
Round Two of 2016 Season Three for the Lawrence Towing Outlaw Modified Series took place on Saturday night at Oxford Plains Speedway in Oxford, Maine. Brian Neff carried the points lead into the second race after his wire-to-wire victory at Martinsville in Round One, while Lowell Jewell sat second in the points.
John Holcomb (#69) jumped out to the early lead from his pole starting position. Holcomb kept his car clean and on cruise-control at the front of the field to become a wire-to-wire winner for the second week in a row. Tim Knott and Donny Moore followed Holcomb to victory, finishing second and third respectively. Points leader Brian Neff brought the Winn-Dixie SK Modified home in the fourth position.
“The Lawrence Towing SK Modified sure ran great tonight” said Holcomb in victory lane. “I was trying so hard to save tires. Tim and Donny ran a great race.”
“John, but he had a little bit more for me than I had for him.” – Tim Knott
“A few times there I tried to make a run at John, but he had a little bit more for me than I had for him,” said Tim Knott after the race.”
