Trevor Huddleston Looks to Continue Winning Tradition at Irwindale Speedway
Bakersfield, CA – The winningest driver in Irwindale Speedway history has thrown his hat into the ring for the $10,000-to-win SaltedMetals Architectural Metals Design And Consulting 100 presented by Pinnacle Peak Steakhouse San Dimas”. Last weekend, Trevor Huddleston scored his 68th career feature win at Irwindale Speedway to earn the honor. This weekend he will try to earn his first win in the Spears Srl Southwest Tour Series and extend that number even further, over Irwindale Speedway legend Rip Michels.
Huddleston has been more successful than any other driver in the speedway’s history, but he is still looking for his first SRL triumph. The Agoura Hills, CA driver has four top-five, and five top-10 finishes in nine SRL starts at the facility. That includes a best finish of second in 2017. Overall Huddleston will make his 18th career series start and would love to pick up a $12,500 victory, thanks to Salted Metals and the Motor City Throwdown Challenge.
Huddleston’s list of accomplishments are lengthy, and include five NASCAR Advanced Auto Parts State of California Regional Championships.
