LEBANON, Ore. -- On Saturday, Sept. 15, defending Grays Harbor Raceway USRA Modified champion Joe German from Wishkah made the trip down to Willamette Speedway to take the paycheck back to the Evergreen State.

Inheriting the lead after two drivers spun while pacing the field German covered the field once racing recommenced.

German is now the seventh different points victor in USRA Modified action at the Lebanon facility, and broke a four-race win streak that Kyle Yeack of Crawfordsville had established.
