If any students at Bulloch Academy ever need a ride, they’d be lucky to have Joshua Bishop’s number in their phone. Bishop added to his already impressive racing resume, taking the checkered flag at the 16th annual Showdown in Savannah at Oglethorpe Speedway Park on Oct. 11. Running on the dirt track, Bishop qualified fourth of 21 cars, quickly moved to the front of the pack, and never gave up the lead during the 25-lap sprint around Oglethorpe’s half-mile track.
