Richard Staley & Lucky Dog Racing win the 2023 championships as Todd Oliver gets the final win

Richard Staley easily wins the 2023 LROC Series Championship after finishing 4th place in the final week at Phoenix and winning the championship by 25 points over 2nd place. Richard wins his first championship in just his 2nd appearance in the league. His other appearance was way back in the 2012 season when he finished in 12th place. Eleven years later he made the most of his return appearance after winning 2 races, earning 9 top 5’s and 12 top 10’s. Now he won’t have to wait as long for his next chance to run in the series.

For the team championship, it was much tighter race between Lucky Dog Racing and The Fantasy Sport Site. The two teams traded the top of the standings for much of the season. The FSS team went to the top midway through but Lucky Dog Racing took the lead back in the previous race. They were able to hold on to the top spot after getting the win at Phoenix.
Lucky Dog Racing picked up their 6 win of the year which led all teams. They were able to win their 7th championship which breaks the tie they held with P10 Select. They led all teams in wins, top 5’s and top 10’s for the year. The FSS team finished 2nd, P10 select 3rd and MGTNFRL 4th.

It was Todd Oliver who won the final race of the season, he gets the victory at Phoenix which was his first of the year. He was able to move up to 10th place, giving the FSS team 3 drivers in the top 10 while Lucky Dog Racing and P10 Select also had 3 each.

Congrats once again to Richard Staley and to Lucky Dog Racing for ending the season on top. Enjoy the holidays, we will see some of you back here at Daytona in 2024!
