FREMONT, Ohio (May 26, 2003) - Shane Yoder waited 10 years to taste victory at Fremont Speeday and it was sweet as he claimed the American Late Model Series win Monday.

Yoder took the lead from Rick DeLong on lap 5 of the 30-lap feature and cruised around the high side of the track to the victory. The real battle was for second between DeLong, Kris Patterson, Ryan Markam and Jim Van Wormer who started 18th. Van Wormer, who set a new track record during qualifying, took the runner-up spot at the checkered, with Patterson, DeLong and Markam rounding out the top five.

"I've been coming here for 10 years...it feels so good to finally get a win. The race track was awesome...nice and smooth and you could race anywhere. I wanted to get a win here because it's so close to Toledo where my family and friends live," said Yoder.

In the 305 sprint feature, Bill Kraylek used the low groove to score his first win of the season at "The Track That Action Built. Matt Merrill who started 18th, finished second, with Brian Smith, Caleb Griffith and Ryan Lowe rounding out the top five.

In the dirt truck feature, Fostoria's Rex Wright scored his first career feature win over Danny Roepke, Steve Sabo, Greg Summit and Darrell Brown.
