This freed up Wallace to maneuver through traffic at his own pace, as Conoyer was more than four seconds behind at that point. With the laps winding down and thin traffic in front of him, Wallace cruised to the checkers for his first win with the tour since June Piloting a new Elite Chassis, Wallace has been spending lots of time in the seat getting used to driving it.
The car was fabricated by three-time and defending Summit Modified champion Nick Hoffman, who opted to race in Indiana on Saturday, ending his eight-race win streak with the tour. However, Wallace was able to pick up the win and at least keep the streak going for the Elite brand. Feature 30 Laps 1. JTreb Jacoby[2]; 3.

If I had lottery money, I'd start a dream team and fund it out of my pocket with no sponsorship money, no wrapped car, no logos.
Just racers with heart. Not only would you be taking home the trophies, but the new kids could see how its really done. We need to keep these guys in the sport.
The rookies are better for having them out there. And its just a better product. Good Luck Herm. I'll play the 'ol lucky numbers for ya! This guy is a class act Kenny works his ass off.. Let's face the facts. Kenny is a marginal racer at best. To secure sponsors you must win races. I'm suprised he has lasted this long. Hopefully this ride can be filled by someone who can win races. Hang in there Herm, another opportunity will come.
When you destroy on average 2 cars per weekend for a few years,it would kinda skinny down the ol' piggy bank,and thus, RWR is no more and everything is up for sale! I can see it now Robby Benton team owner is not overly keen on how Kenny is portraying the situation.
It's a darn shame that we discard drivers like yesterday's newspapers all for the latest flavor of the week. Kenny has worked his butt off, earned the respect of everyone in the garage, and can sell anything to anybody.
Who could say no to his personality? It really eats at me that we put year old drivers in Cup cars way before they've even earned their ride in a Nationwide car.
I realize that owners have to go where the money is, and many teams wouldn't be racing without it hello, Paul Menard. Just a shame that the sponsors get to dictate to the owners who they put in the car. Makes me wish that I was a marketing director right now. For less than the price of one Super Bowl 30 second commercial, I could have Kenny Wallace for the whole year, face plastered all over merchandise, numerous personal appearances, wearing my logo every time he's on SPEED, and a hospitality tent every week to boot.
I realize we're still talking a bit of cash, even in these tough times, but it seems that we have slightly misplaced our values. Kenny, if you see this, I've been a fan since way before the Square D days. No one is more deserving. Best of luck to you. What a damn shame if Kenny has to leave the ride. He seems to be a genuine nice guy compared to some of these folks. I'll keep buying lottery tickets and keep my fingers crossed that some company steps up.
