Shay Brand TQ’s and wins at the Run For The Riches

ROCCK Racing located in Knoxville, TN hosted their Run for the Riches “Part Deux” event. With a $2,400 purse and many regional fast guys, the racing was going to be close. Their covered facility at Chilhowee Park in east Knoxville allows them guaranteed racing rain or shine. With some rain on Saturday morning, the moisture in the air had an effect on the track and made it pretty slick for round 1. Shay Brand ended up 2nd in Pro Buggy and 8th in E-Buggy after a really rough qualifier. In the Pro Buggy class Shay Brand took the TQ in round 2 and in E-Buggy, he was able to put in a decent run and was now sitting 2nd. With the weather drying up and the track coming around, Shay put in another great run in both his classes to take the overall TQ in both. Shay then went on to lead the 10 minute E-Buggy Main, wire to wire as well as the 30 minute Pro Buggy Main to take the victory in both his classes.
