LOVES PARK, ILL. — Byron resident Erik Jones took the lead on the 32nd lap and never looked back in taking the checkered flag in the Champion Racing Association All-Star Tour Stanley Steemer 100 Saturday at Rockford Speedway in Loves Park, Ill.

The 15-year-old became the youngest winner of not only an CRA All-Star Tour race, but the youngest winner of a late-model race at Rockford.

Next up for Jones is an event on Aug. 20 at Winchester Speedway in Winchester, Ind.
