Bryan Hulbert – BYRAM, Miss. (August 11, 2018) Reporting to Victory Lane for the second time in 2018 with the ASCS Mid-South Region, Derek Hagar parked his DHR Suspension No. 9jr at Jackson Motor Speedway in the third annual King of the Wings.
Collecting $2,000 in his third career win with the ASCS Mid-South Region, the Arkansas shoe began his run from fourth as Dustin Gates took off with the lead. Keeping pace for the first four rotations, Hagar was there to take over the top spot on Lap 5.
Hunted by Tim Crawley soon after, Hagar kept the three-time Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour Champion at bay with early race leader, Dustin Gates, ending his night third.
Rolling up from 12th, Channin Tankersley raced to fourth with Tennessee’s Morgan Turpen crossing fifth. Terry Gray sixth had Koty Adams in tow. Earning the Stealth Recover Hard Charger Award, Brian Bell ripped through the field from 21st to eighth. Ernie Ainsworth grabbed ninth with Shane Morgan tenth.
The ASCS Mid-South Region goes green again on Saturday, September 15 with the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Red River Region presented by Smiley’s Racing Products at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Ark.
