Sheppard stands on Lucas Oil podium at Port Royal

Rocket1 Racing was back on the road on Saturday afternoon as they invaded Hagerstown Speedway (Hagerstown, Md.) to kick off the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) doubleheader weekend. Drawing 42 entries for the Red Nininger Tribute, Sheppard faded one spot in his heat race to finish seventh. Failing to place third or better in his B-Main, Brandon was granted a provisional into the $15,000-to-win A-Main. Coming one spot shy of a Top-10, finish, Sheppard marched through the field 12 spots in the 50-lapper to place 11th.

On Sunday afternoon at Port Royal Speedway (Port Royal, Pa.) for the River Valley 40, Brandon clocked in fastest overall in his time trial group before picking up an eight-lap heat race victory. With $10,000 on the line in the feature, Sheppard dropped one spot to finish third, trailing Jonathan Davenport and Shane Clanton to the checkers. Chris Ferguson and Stormy Scott completed the Top-5 finishers in the 40-lap affair.
