July 11th Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series at I-90 Speedway

Darren did a great job Saturday night at I-90 Speedway Hartford, South Dakota. There were 52 cars there. He started 9th in his heat race (dead last) and finished 4th!! This gave him passing points and put him in the redraw and allowed him to go to the A Main. He started 4 th in the final race and fell back a few spots. With 12 laps to go he spun around in turn 2 and had to go to the back of the pack. (There were 20 cars in the final race) Within the 12 laps he was able to finish 13th! This great night allowed him to go from 19th in points to 15th place in the Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series points.
