Inside Line Promotions – MARION, Ark. (July 28, 2015) – Derek Hagar is slated to return to Riverside International Speedway this Saturday for the first time since winning at the bullring in early June.

Hagar will compete in both sprint car classes this weekend during the Cody Burks Memorial at the quarter-mile track in West Memphis, Ark.

“We have good confidence going into this weekend,” he said. “Saturday is a special event for a local young kid who died a couple of years ago. It’s a special race and I’d love to add that trophy to my others.”

Hagar, whose scheduled race last weekend at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Ark., was rained out, is seeking his sixth feature victory of the season. He lapped up to third place while winning the Hooker Hood Classic at Riverside International Speedway approximately eight weeks ago.

“The last time we were there we had a pretty dominant performance,” he said. “The 305 deal didn’t work out as well as we wanted, but we were good in the 360s.”

Hagar also posted a fifth-place result in the 305 class that night after being involved in an early crash that sent him to the back.

“I’ll be driving for Bobby Jones like I did the last time,” he said. “We just got his car today and we’ll look over some things and see if we can get it a little better than the last time we drove it.”
