Ramstrom, the defending Super Late Model champion at the track, now has five victories in just 10 starts this year. He started third in the caution-free 30-lap NASCAR Whelen All-American Series event and had the lead by the time the field completed the first lap around the high-banked, .625-mile oval. From there, Ramstrom went unchallenged to the victory and gained ground of division points leaders Mike O&#8217;Sullivan and Larry Gelinas.<\/p>\n<p>WHO: Derek Ramstrom, W.

I just knew if I got out ahead of him and maintained a fast pace, I was hoping that he wasn\u2019t going to catch me.
