Mark Dobmeier – Ready
for Knoxville

April 25, 2013 – Mark
Dobmeier is ready to get to the race track this weekend, especially after a
rough start to the season out in the desert in Las Vegas with the Outlaws.And Mother Nature looks like she is going to
oblige with gorgeous weather forecasted for the season opener at the Knoxville
Raceway.With snow still on the ground
up in Grand Forks, the Lunstra Motorsports #13 will get some laps Friday night
for practice before tackling the famous half mile on Saturday for the first
points race of the year.
“Oh man, we can’t wait to get back on the race track this
weekend,” Dobmeier said. “We’ve been stuck up in this deep freeze here in North
Dakota getting everything ready and finally it’s time to get back on the track
at Knoxville.”
The 2013 season didn’t start out the best out at The Dirt
Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The first heat race of the year resulted
with contact on the start with Steve Kinser and the Senske & Son Transfer
Eagle backed into the front stretch concrete. The night was over and the car
was junked before getting a competitive lap in the books. The team brought the
backup car for the second night, but a tough time in qualifying set them behind
the 8-ball. A change of the mag box after the heat got Dobmeier some speed in
the ‘B’, but left them watching the feature.
“It was unfortunate how Vegas turned out after traveling all
that distance to get in a wreck on the start of the heat,” Dobmeier said. “We
found some speed in the ‘B’ but we just started too far back there to be able
to make the show.”
However, the time out in Vegas was not a complete waste of
time as a ton of family and friends made the trip out to the desert. “It sucks
we didn’t perform the way we wanted to, but it was great to see so many people
that we know out there,” Dobmeier stated. “We really do not get to see so many
people all in the same place during the summer since we’re always racing
somewhere. It was fun to be around so many people that make this #13 car what
it is every year.”
The focus now turns to this weekend’s opener at Knoxville.
And a heavy field is expected to meet the Sioux Falls Ford #13, whether some of
the Outlaw drivers are there or not.
“It sounds like the roster of drivers running for points
down there is going to be stout,” Dobmeier said. “It’s tough to win at Knoxville
any time, but it definitely sounds like this year is going to be even tougher
with the number of guys expecting to run for points. We’re excited to see how
we match up with everyone and see how all this offseason work pays off.”
With River Cities Speedway called off for Friday, you can
catch the Big Trucks by Jimco, Fisher powered #13 on practice night on Friday
at Knoxville, followed by the season opener Saturday.
