Troutman earns Modified podium at Spoon River Speedway during Illinois Speedweek
Navigating through wet weather all week, Drake Troutman kicked off Illinois Speedweek in the Jerry Foster Modified on Wednesday evening at Spoon River Speedway (Canton, Ill.) after losing the opener at LaSalle (Ill.) Speedway.
Charging from fourth-to-second in his heat, Troutman started fifth in the 25-lap[ feature and ran third behind Trevor Neville and Michael Ledford. The Thursday night show at Lincoln (Ill.) Speedway was washed out after rain showers hit the facility during heat races.
Troutman was back in the Late Model Fairbury (Ill.) Speedway on Saturday for the Spring Shootout after the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series weekend opener at Farmer City (Ill.) Raceway was also lost to Mother Nature. Troutman did not make the Lucas Dirt, but ran fourth in the Modified feature event.
