In the June 2018 event it was again Dietrich putting the pressure on eventual race winner, Paul McMahan who was victorious for the first time in a series event in several years. Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions regulars like Aaron Reutzel, Carson Macedo, Dave Blaney, Chad Kemenah and Jac Haudenschild will all be at Outlaw Speedway looking for the winner’s share of $5,000.
