Hoffman starts week two of Modified Nationals with another victory

After a three-day break in Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals action, Nick Hoffman took his No. 2 Elite Chassis back into battle on Wednesday night at La Salle Speedway (La Salle, Ill.). With 16 entries on hand Hoffman successfully executed yet another perfect night at the track to score his sixth-straight series victory, which was worth $1,500.

“Hot rod’s just been really good. Nothing’s really gone wrong, it’s just all going our way right now. I come out here and do the same thing every single night,” Hoffman said. “Me and Shawn [crew guy] worked our butts off today, had a couple of issues earlier, but we smoothed it all out,” Hoffman said in Victory Lane.

Hoffman’s 44th-career tour win also marked his 17th-overall victory of the 2021 campaign. He was followed across the finish line by Mike McKinney, Allen Weisser, Ray Bollinger, and Tommy Sheppard Jr.

On Thursday night Mother Nature nixed the scheduled program at Spoon River Speedway. As a result, Hoffman enjoyed a night off before racing to his seventh-straight victory on Friday night with a flag-to-flag performance Sycamore Speedway (Maple Park, Ill.). Nick’s 18th win of the year came over Mike McKinney, Kelly Kovski, Hunt Gossum, and Tim Hamburg.

“Racecar’s so balanced, I can pretty much go anywhere and it’s really fun to drive right now,” Hoffman said.

Both Saturday and Sunday’s Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals events Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 and Jacksonville Speedway were washed away.
