J.R. was back into the action on Friday as he made his return to Fayette County Speedway in Brownstown, Illinois. PIR was closed for the night, so it was the perfect time for him to take advantage of his recent out-of-state win.

J.R. picked up a heat win to start the feature on the front row. He got to run a dash before the main event and he won. Monkey would then continue on into the feature to pick up his second win of the week, earning him a new nickname as ‘The Showstopper’.

Mason followed suit the following night by continuing racing in Illinois.  J.R. raced at Clay County Speedway exactly one month ago, but had to settle for the runner-up position. He returned on Saturday to get the job done, which is exactly what he did. Showstopper won his heat from a dead last start and even clenched the feature win, making him three for three this weekend.

With thirteen starts in the Street class this season, J.R. has earned an impressive ten wins and three runner-ups.
