KEVIN THOMAS JR. TOPS AT LINCOLN PARK SPEEDWAY
Putnamville, IN - May 25, 2019. The Memorial Day Weekend Special at
Lincoln Park Speedway attracted 40 sprint car teams. But there could
only be one winner. The winner was Cullman, Alabama, driver Kevin
Thomas Jr. Thomas was at the wheel of his own DRC sprint car
sponsored by Grainger and B & H Contractors..
The 25 lap feature would have just two leaders. Robert Ballou, who
won the Josh Burtom Memorial at Bloomington Speedway the night
before, took the lead at the outset from the pole position. He
finished the first lap ahead of Dave Darland. Carson Short moved
into contention for the lead on lap 2 only to have Thomas overtake
him on lap 8. Thomas was not done. He passed Ballou for the lead on
lap 11 and went on to take the $2,500 victory check.
A yellow flag was displayed on lap 23. Three cars were towed or
retired to the pit area. As a result the race was restarted with
different cars at the front. Dave Darland restarted in second and
that is where he would finish. Darland was driving the Buddy
Cunningham owned sprinter. Veteran Bill Rose finished third moving
up from ninth in the starting field. Defending MSCS Champion Carson
Short was fourth and Shane Cockrum crossed the line fifth.
Mario Clouser, Joe Stornetta Jr., Brady Short, Kyle Cummins, and
Chase Stockon completed the feature race in that order to fill out
the top ten. Donny Brackett received the Wilwood Tuff Brakes Award.
Brackett almost finished in the top ten despite taking a provisional
and starting 21st on the field. The Certified Rentals Hard Charger
of the Race was Chase Stockon
There were five heat races held. The winners were Jordan Kinser,
Carson Short, Dave Darland, Kevin Thomas Jr., and Robert Ballou.
Collin Ambrose picked up a victory in the C Main. Clinton Boyles won
the B Main that followed. Twenty cars started. Aric Gentry would
earn the last feature transfer spot by finishing fifth.
The BRANDEIS Midwest Sprint Car Series returns to Tri-State Speedway
at Haubstadt, IN, on Sunday for the Memorial Weekend Classic. That
race will wrap up three consecutive days of racing.
