[Chad Finley Racing]

The fourth race of the 2012 Racing Season in the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by GM Performance Parts showed what the entire Chad Finley Racing Team already knew about their driver, Chad Finley; That the DeWitt, Michigan driver was a bonafide title contender in the Salem, Indiana based series as the 20-year-old would lead the most laps and would cross the start/finish line first at Columbus Motor Speedway in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday, May 26th to win his first career JEGS/CRA race in the CoughlinCars.com 100.

"This is what all of our hard work has led too. We're standing here in victory lane because we never quit and we never give up on our ultimate goals for this team! This is one of those goals." The elated driver remarked to JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour P.A. Announcer, Matt Prieur in victory lane. "Even after we lost the lead, I told the guys, 'we're not out of this.' We just kept digging and some luck came our way and I made sure no mistakes were made the rest of the race. This feels so good and it's been a long time coming. This is for all of our Marketing Partners who never gave up on us and especially for all of our fans who never stopped believing in CFR.” He added.

With the win, Finley has made the early run for the 2012 JEGS/CRA title a dogfight between the top six teams in the season long points chase. In addition, the CFR Team is riding a huge wave of momentum heading into the next event on the JEGS/CRA schedule in a race title sponsorship by Finley’s primary sponsor; The Auto Value Parts Stores & Certified Service Centers 100 Presented by JEGS.com on Friday, June 1st at the fast 4/10s (0.400 mile progressively banked paved oval of Dixie Motor Speedway, located just an hour northeast of the DeWitt, Michigan based CFR Race Shop in Birch Run, Michigan.
