Twice last weekend at Port Royal, Dewease was spectacular. On Friday, he outran Kyle Larson with a …

Newsmaker of the Week // Shane Cottle

The Bill Holland Classic for USAC Silver Crown Cars Sunday night at Selinsgrove Speedway was looking for all the world like a green-to-checkered romp for fast time trialer CJ Leary. But lurking in the wings was Shane Cottle. Cottle had time trialed second slowest with a misfire. He blew a tire at the 45-lap mark of the 74-lap feature, pitted, got back …
