R.J.
Conley Wins Season Finale at Atomic Speedway; Claims Track Championship!
(November
1, 2024) R.J. Conley concluded his 2024 racing
season in winning fashion on Saturday night, October 26 at Atomic
Speedway in Alma, Ohio! Aboard his Longhorn Chassis, R.J. laid
down the second fastest lap overall during qualifying prior to
winning his heat race. After starting the 25-lap main event from
the outside of the front row, R.J. took off at the drop of the
green flag and led every circuit to pocket the $3,000 payday ahead
of runner-up Rod Conley, Robby Hensley, Zach Milbee, and Seth
Daniels. With the triumph, the Wheelersburg, Ohio standout also
secured the Super Late Model Track Championship at the Buckeye
State venue!
The #71R team also had a great night in the season finale at
Atomic Speedway finishing in the runner-up spot. In preliminary
action, Rod qualified third quickest overall during time trials
and later secured a heat race victory. "Hot Rod" was
able to move up one spot during the 25-lapper to trail only
his brother R.J. and the second place effort locked him into
third place in the final track point standings. Complete results

“I hate we only won one feature this year, but at least
we closed out the season on a high note,” quoted R.J.
Conley this week. “We had been fighting an issue ever
since we debuted that Longhorn car back in September and we
finally found out what was going on. Once we got things fixed,
it was on a rail during the feature on Saturday at Atomic. Thanks
to everyone who stuck behind us all year and hopefully we hit
on something that will help us be fast right out of the box
in 2025.”
A busy year that started underneath the bright Florida sunshine
in a final trip to East Bay Raceway Park back in early February
wrapped up Saturday in triumphant fashion at Atomic Speedway!
