Mopar and Valvoline driver follows up with 2nd place finish at West Liberty Speedway
(Ashland, KY) World of Outlaw Late Model Series Dirty Dozen member, Steve Francis and Moring Motorsports combined dirt late model talents this past weekend to produce 2 top-10 and 1 top-5 finishes in two events rounding out the Memorial Day weekend race festivities.
Francis and Moring Motorsports started the weekend at the 12th annual $38,000 to win Show Me 100 at West Plains (MO) Speedway where Francis rocketed his Mopar powered Gary Stanton engine to post the second fastest qualifying. Francis successfully transferred into the 100 lap show and brought the #15 Mopar and Valvoline sponsored Freeport Recycling Centers Dodge Intrepid across the checkered flags in 7th place.
Following the Show Me 100 (May 30), Francis and Moring Motorsports traveled to Dubuque (IA) Speedway for an unsanctioned $6,000 to win event, which was canceled to do inclement weather.
