Josh Williams Looks to Continue Winning Ways on Short Tracks at the Iowa Speedway

After a well-deserved off weekend for Josh Williams and his family owned team, they turn their attention to the 11th race of the 2016 ARCA season at the 7/8 mile Iowa Speedway located in Newton, Iowa. Williams is set to make his sixth start at the “Fastest Half-Mile on The Planet” Saturday evening in the Casey’s General Store 150.

“Iowa Speedway is truly a unique track for us to race at,” Williams stated. “It’s a racers racetrack. You can race from the bottom all the way to the top.”

“Our short track program has been excellent this season. The off week allowed us to work on somethings for this weekend as well as future races. I can’t thank Danny Johnson and all of my JWM guys for all of their hard work and effort. We have a great chance to earn our third win of the season Saturday evening.”

Through ten races in the 2016 ARCA schedule Williams and his family owned team are the only repeat winner on the circuit. Williams scored his first career win in April at the Fairgrounds Speedway in Nashville and then won on Father’s day at the Madison International Speedway. Williams and his team have thrived on the short tracks in 2016 earning an average finish of 5.4

That success on the short tracks has propelled Williams into the lead in the Short Track Challenge presented by Protect Plus point standings through five races.

The ARCA veteran currently is in the thick of the championship battle sitting second in driver points trailing leader Chase Briscoe by 165 points with ten races remaining.

Practice for the Iowa ARCA 150 is from 11:30 – 1:00 p.m. Saturday with Menards Pole Qualifying presented by Ansell following at 3:15. The Iowa ARCA 150 is live on FS2 at 8 p.m. local Central time. Live Timing and Scoring and live Chat will also be available at arcaracing.com
