PORTLAND, OR. — Patience proved to be crucial for William Sawalich in Friday’s ARCA Menards Series West race at Portland International Raceway.
After tailing NASCAR Xfinity Series veteran Brandon Jones for the first half of the Portland 112, a dive bomb into the Turn 1 chicane with 31 laps remaining ended up being the race-winning pass that gave Sawalich his first road course victory on the ARCA Menards Series platform.
