Josh Richards was hoping that last weekend’s three-state, three-night 360 OTC World of Outlaws Late Model Series ‘March Through Dixie’ would provide him a memorable birthday present.
Alas, things didn’t quite go according to plan for the rising young star known as ‘Kid Rocket, ’ who turned 19 on March 22. But even after scoring just one top-10 finish and losing the tour points lead that he carried into the swing, Josh remained upbeat about the remainder of a season that figures to be the busiest of his career.
“It wasn’t a very good weekend for us, †said Josh, who won the 360 OTC WoO LMS Rookie of the Year award in 2005. “It seemed like my Dad and I really weren’t working together on stuff like we should have been, and it made for a rough weekend.
