Tilford scores fourth Pure Stock feature win; Simas gets first
Placerville in wingless
Early in the season, Tom Tilford of Citrus Heights didn't really know what the future
held in the way of Pure Stock racing at Placerville Speedway. With a lack of work taking its toll on his financial
situation, his #92 Pure Stock was parked for several weeks early in the season, his brother Jon was busy with a new
baby girl and time for everyone had become limited. Since that time, things have turned around for Tilford and
Saturday night he drove to his fourth victory of the 2008 racing season.
