HIGHLAND, IL — July 7, 2018 — Running a steady 40 laps on a slippery race track, polesitter Chad Zobrist led flag-to-flag at Highland Speedway to pick up his first career DIRTcar Summer Nationals victory. Zobrist stayed smooth despite the dogged pursuit by four-time series champion Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, IL, who settled for second after running in the runner-up position for 38 laps.
