FREMONT, Ohio — Jeep VanWormer used three cars to finally get to victory lane with the Sunoco American Late Model Series at Fremont Speedway Monday.
VanWormer destroyed a car Friday in Michigan, came back with his backup car Saturday with a third place finish, but put one in the fence Sunday at Eldora. His family, with the help of driver Ky Harper, put together another car and he bested a 55-car field on True Value Hardware of Woodville Night.
