By Mike Spieker

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (July 20, 2018) – Joey Pederson raced to his second Performance Auto Late Model feature win of the season. Pederson moved by Brandon Fuller for the lead on the lap seven restart. Pederson was challenged by Bill Mooney until another restart brought RCS point leader, Dustin Strand, into the fray. 

Strand applied heavy pressure on Pederson, but Pederson was a touch better up on the cushion. Pederson took the win over Strand and Brad Seng, who started 14th. Mike Balcaen and Bill Mooney rounded out the top five.
