Tyler Erb Finishes Third in Dirt Track World Championship
Claims LOLMDS Rookie of the Year Title


St. Marys, Ohio (10/21/19) – Tyler Erb put a wrap on the 2019 Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) campaign over the weekend with a trip to Ohio's Portsmouth Raceway Park for the 39th Annual Dirt Track World Championship.

It proved to be a great weekend for the driver of the Industrial Resourcing Group No. 1 Best Performance Motorsports/ XR1 Rocket Chassis/ Durham Racing Engine Super Late Model.

With 64 competitors entered, Tyler backed up a solid-qualifying effort on Friday evening with a second-place finish in his heat race. Via accumulated points he locked into the ninth-starting spot for Saturday night's $100,000-to-win feature.

In the 100-lap, crown jewel finale, Erb clawed his way to a third-place finish behind Brandon Sheppard and Mike Marlar.

Erb claimed the 2019 Eibach Rookie of the Year by entering the weekend's event and ended the year with six series wins.

"I was a little behind where I wanted to be early in the race, because I started ninth. Those other guys put themselves in a better starting position. I am very happy with the finish tonight and this year. I broke Randall's [crew chief Randall Edwards] streak of three wins in a row tonight, but it has been an awesome year for us at Best Performance," Erb said. "To come out of this season with the Rookie-of-the-Year Championship is fantastic, and I can't wait for our team to build on that next year.

"I definitely want to thank Best Performance Motorsports, our sponsors, our fans and family for giving us great support the entire year."
