Ryan Unzicker
Fourth-place finish with WoO at Tri-City; Wins at FALS
After a few near misses to start the year, Ryan Unzicker raced to his first victory of the 2022 season on Saturday night at Fairbury (Ill.) Speedway.
His first trip to Victory Lane of the 2022 season rewarded him with a $2,500 payday aboard his RJR Transportation / Brucker Farms No. 24 Mosquito Hero / MB Customs / Pro Power Racing Engine Super Late Model.
“We had a great weekend top to bottom. We set quick time in our group with the World of Outlaws on Friday night at Tri-City Speedway, won our heat, and then finished fourth in the feature,” Unzicker said. “Then at Fairbury (Speedway) we put the whole night together and got the win. They don’t come easy, so it feels good to get the first of the year. Thanks to my family, crew, and sponsors. I couldn’t do it without them all.”
Ryan Unzicker trekked to Tri-City Speedway (Granite City, Ill.) on Friday afternoon to enter his RJR Transportation No. 24 Late Model into battle with the World of Outlaws (WoO) Case Late Model Series.
After topping his 19-car time trial group, Unzicker secured his spot into the redraw with a heat race victory. Receiving the second-starting position for the $10,000-to-win A-Main, Ryan raced in the Top 5 throughout the 50-lap affair before registering a fourth-place finish.
He followed Bobby Pierce, Kyle Bronson, and Ryan Gustin across the line with Kyle Hammer coming in fifth.
On Saturday evening at Fairbury Speedway (Fairbury, Ill.), Unzicker advanced one spot in his heat race to finish second. Outrunning World of Outlaw regular Shane Clanton in the feature, Ryan raced to his first win of the season over Clanton, Tommy Sheppard Jr., Max Blair, and Kevin Weaver. He earned $2,500 for his winning performance.
