R.J. Conley celebrates a flag-to-flag Iron-Man victory at Moler.
What won the race: Second-starting R.J. Conley of Wheelersburg, Ohio, fended off a late-race surge from Jason Jameson for a flag-to-flag victory in Friday's Impact Race Gear 30 feature at Moler Raceway Park. Conley beat Jameson by 0.479 of a second for the $5,000 payday, his third career Valvoline American Late Model Iron-Man Series victory and first win of the season.
Key notes: Conley collected his first Iron-Man win since last May 31 at Muskingum County Speedway in Zanesville, Ohio. ... It's his first win of any kind since last July 26 in weekly action at Mudlick Valley Raceway in Wallingford, Ky. ... Sixth-starting Jason Jameson moved into second on a lap-22 restart but couldn't cut Conley's lead any closer than four-tenths of a second. ... Polesitter Steve Peeden trailed Conley the opening 21 laps before giving way to Jameson. ... Fast qualifier Billy Green held fourth all 30 laps. ... The race was slowed by yellow flags twice, the first eliminated Avery Taylor and Travis Carr on the opening lap. ... Ninth-running Seth Daniels appeared to be eliminated during the second and final stoppage on lap 22. ... Michael LeFevers retired under the lap-22 caution. ... Rusty Schlenk pulled off while running 13th on the 10th lap. ... The feature lasted shy of 16 minutes with 15 starters completing 30 laps. ... Tyler Collins scratched after nosing into an infield tire during heat action. ... Devin Gilpin scratched after breaking an oil pump belt in hot laps. ... Moler is slated to host the Iron-Man Series two more times this season with an $8,000-to-win stop July 17 and another $5,000-to-win program Aug. 21.
