Westfield,
IN June 4, 2011
After
starting 14th, 16th, 20th and 19th
Robert Ballou has picked up a 5th, 3rd, 8th
and 2nd place finish respectively in the USAC Eastern Storm tour
giving him the number two points position in the USAC Easter Storm points
championship.
Living
up to the name “The Madman” Ballou has passed a combined total of 52 cars in
four feature events. Ballou has proven to be a dominant force to be reckoned
with even when starting in a less than desirable position. Ballou says, “obviously
we never like to start in the back of a feature event, however, this week we have
managed to find the best groove at each track allowing me to move forward and
finish up front.” These consistent finishes in the USAC Eastern Storm tour have
pushed Ballou to the second place points position in the Eastern Storm points
chase and also launches him to a fifth place points position in the USAC Amsoil
National Sprint Car points.
Ballou
will compete in the final night of the USAC Eastern Storm tour at the historic Port
Royal Speedway in Port Royal, PA on Saturday, June 4, 2011. Ballou says “from what we’ve heard Port Royal
is a big fast track which happens to be where we are usually the most competitive.
If you look at where I’ve done the best it’s been Eldora and Terre Haute which
are big, fast half mile tracks. If Port Royal lives up to the rumors I’m
expecting to put on a great show for the fans. I’m hoping to finish out the
week with a win and points title. It helps that the final night is a new track
for all of us which should level the playing field”
