Abbottstown, PA (June 18, 2022)ย โ After engine troubles last week forced him to sit out most of the night, Chase Dietz rebounded with a win on Saturday at the Freedom Off-Road Speedweek Tune-up, โYou have more bad nights than good nights, but these last couple of races, weโll enjoy these and hopefully pull off a few more.โ
Dietz lined up 10th for the 30-lap feature behind the redraw cars in the Speedweek format, โI got a good start and put myself in a decent position.โ Chase was up to third early in the race and got by Chad Trout for second twice, both times with the caution coming out before the lap was complete, negating the pass. Dietz officially made the pass for second on lap 9. He then went to work reeling in Troy Wagaman for the lead. Dietz took the top spot on lap 24. It was Dietzโs second win of the weekend after winning at Williams Grove on Friday night. Dietz also won at the Grove last Friday, โItโs pretty damn cool to be able to pull off three here in the last two weeks heading into Speedweek.โ
