A Dubuque Speedway Win on Father’s Day for Wes and Terry Digman

The Dubuque Speedway was busy as usual last weekend.  Basically everyone and their dads were there over the Father’s Day weekend.   However this Father’s Day was extra special for Terry and Wes Digman!   Wes, a service consultant at Runde PreDriven, got his first win in the Sport Mod Class at the Dubuque Speedway Races on Sunday.

“It was pretty huge for my team,” Wes said. “We’ve been so close for so many years and we finally did it.”

His father, Terry, helps the team each week and was proud to see his son’s first win on Father’s Day.

“He was pretty worked up by the time he got down there with me,” Wes said.

Wes has been racing for nine years.

“I love the speed and adrenaline and the time that I get to spend with my dad,” Wes said.

Wes’ car, #42, is an open-wheel modified vehicle powered by a Chevy 350 engine.  The front stub is from a 1969 Chevelle and the rest is a tube chassis.

Terry helps keep the car running each week.

“He’s kind of a nut and bolt and body panel fixing guy,” Wes said.

So, what’s up next for Wes Digman?

“I’m hoping we can carry on the momentum from this Dubuque Speedway showing and pick up a couple more wins,” he said. “There’s an aftermarket nationals race in Farley, Iowa the Independence Day weekend of the and hopefully we can excel and do well in that.”

Congrats, Wes, from all your friends at Runde Auto Group!
