Inside Line Promotions – HEATH, Texas (Oct. 24, 2018) – Travis Rilat will wrap up his season this weekend with the John Christner Trucking Fall Fling at Creek County Speedway.
The BDS Motorsports driver will invade the bullring in Sapulpa, Okla., on Friday and Saturday for the Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour presented by SawBlade.com season finale.
“We want to end the season on a high note,” Rilat said. “Last year we were able to produce a win during the final weekend of the season so that’s our goal once again.”
Rilat posted a 10th-place finish during his lone start this season at Creek County Speedway, where he hadn’t raced since recording a podium finish in June 2010. His last win at the track came in May 2003.
“Creek County is smaller, elbows-up type of track,” he said. “You have to be aggressive, but also very methodical with your decisions. You can get in trouble in a hurry if you’re in a bad position so hopefully we can draw good in the pill draw and start up front all night.”
Rilat enters the weekend ranked ninth in the ASCS National Tour championship standings. This year was Rilat’s first time chasing points on the ASCS National Tour since 2009. Despite missing multiple races because of work commitments, he is set up to finish in the top 10 in the championship standings for the 10th time in his career.
