WEST BURLINGTON, Iowa — Brian Shirley put together a night of perfection on Friday night at 34 Raceway to top a field of 41 Lucas Oil MLRA Late Models. He followed that up with a heat race win that positioned him on the pole alongside of Billy Moyer Sr. At the drop of the green Shirley quickly positioned himself into the top spot over Moyer and Ryan Gustin. On the ensuing restart it was more of the same, with Shirley pulling away from Moyer and a charging Bobby Pierce. Gustin would follow Pierce’s lead as the duo wagged a fierce back and forth battle on the top line in the closing laps. With the green back in the air for the final five laps, Shirley cruised to a 1.361-second victory over Pierce and Moyer.
