FARMER CITY, IL – April 4, 2009 – Shane Clanton kept trying and trying to overtake Brian Birkhofer for the lead in Saturday night’s second annual ‘Illini 100’ at Farmer City Raceway.
Finally, on lap 94, Clanton’s persistence paid off – to the tune of a $20,600 paycheck for winning the blockbuster World of Outlaws Late Model Series event in front of a standing-room-only crowd.
