Concord, NC - May 18th, 2007

Justin Lloyd scored his second runner-up finish in INEX Legends Cars Semi-Pro competition at Concord Motorsports Park Friday evening. 

“The car was a little loose all evening,” said the teen racer. “I was able to adjust to it. I avoided a few spins in front of me and brought it home in one piece,” he added. 

After winning the season opener on March 17, Lloyd has raced only four times at Concord’s quarter-mile oval, with a pair of seconds and one sixth-place as the lowest finishing position. 

When not at Concord’s bullring, Lloyd races a second family entry: his Super Truck in races at Caraway, Hickory and other short ovals. Lloyd’s luck has been better in the Legends car than in his A&J Motorsports truck, but he still has top ten finishes to his credit in 2007. 

The next race slated for Lloyd is Thursday night at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, in association with Pole Night activities for the Coca Cola 600. “I hope we go in there and come out with a strong finish that will have them follow me,” he said. “Hopefully some day they’ll call me to come race with them.” Following the pole night races, he will race at Elkin, N.C.’s Friendship Motor Speedway on May 25.
