“We’ve been crazy busy ever since we got back from racing in Australia. We’ve been chomping at the bit to get back to action, and Sunday night we were finally able to do just that,” Godsey said. “I bided my time during the first half of the feature and was finally able to get past Jeff [Roth] on lap 16. It was great to be in the driver’s seat again, and to get a win is just the icing on the cake. This win is dedicated to all of the great folks who support Roth Motorsports.”
