FOREST, Ohio (October 10, 2022) – Despite having to make a last minute destination change, as their initial plan to join the Xtreme Outlaw Sprint Car Series in an Atomic Speedway doubleheader was ultimately canceled due to poor weather conditions, Matt Westfall and Ray Marshall Motorsports turned the compass and adjusted in a hurry, aiming their focus on Western Pennsylvania for a Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Series (BOSS) double at Latrobe Speedway and Pittsburgh’s Pennsylvania Motor Speedway.
Although short of acquiring another BOSS triumph, Westfall was consistent, powering Ray Marshall’s Buckeye Machine Fabricators Inc/Hempy Water/DPI Ink/No. 33M sprint car to a pair of top-ten outcomes including a top-five in the weekend opener at Latrobe Speedway. The Pleasant Hill, Ohio, native finished third in his top-five run, pulling even for second at one point in the main event before settling for the last step on the podium. The following evening at Pittsburgh’s Pennsylvania Motor Speedway, Westfall finished eighth, maintaining his place inside the top-ten after starting fifth on the feature grid.
Westfall is a former BOSS Series winner at Dirt’s Monster Half Mile, securing a victory on July 24, 2021.
“I think we were good enough to win at Latrobe, just kinda ran out of time I think,” Westfall explained. “We wanted to get another win for Ray before this season comes to a close. We have a few more chances to make that plan a reality. We’ll do whatever we can to make that happen.”
ON DECK:
Matt Westfall and Ray Marshall Motorsports will continue their 2022 campaign with Gas City I-69 Speedway’s fourth annual Fall Festival of Speed on Friday and Saturday, October 21-22.
