Blake Hahn Parks It At Park Jefferson Speedway With Lucas Oil ASCS

N. SIOUX CITY, S.D. (July 28, 2016) A bone slick race track and traffic was the way the canvas teams had to work with on Thursday night as Blake Hahn capitalized on a mistake by Josh Baughman in slower traffic to garner his third Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network victory of the month.

Drawing outside of the front row in Thursday's feature event, Hahn would remain runner-up as Josh Baughman took off into the lead.

Slowed one time in 25 laps for Wayne Johnson and Cory Eliason, who tangled in turn-two, the leaders started approaching slower traffic with 12 laps complete. Rolling bottom side on the Park Jefferson Speedway, the pair raced to the back bumper of Justin Jacobsma.

Unable to work under the No. 10j in time, Baughman slipped off the low line, leaving the door wide open for Hahn to capitalize for the lead on the fourteenth lap.Commenting on the pass, Hahn stated, "Baughman we really good early on, and actually, he was good everywhere, but a lapped car got him out of his rhythm just enough for us to capitalize."

Thanking family, crew, sponsors, and the fans, Hahn's win at the Park Jefferson Speedway is his fourth overall with the Lucas Oil ASCS presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network.

Crossing silver, Josh Baughman was pleased, but disappointed with the runner-up performance.

"It's a great finish, but you know it's bad when you run second and you're not happy about it. I felt like we gave that one away in lapped traffic but congrats to Blake," said Baughman. "These guys bust their butts every day to give me a good car and we're rolling pretty good going into the biggest month of the year here so I have to thank them."

Stalking the pair at the front the entire race, Johnny Herrera recorded his third consecutive podium finish. Within striking distance at one point, things never lined up enough for the No. 45x to pounce.

"At one point when Josh was leading there, we were all right there with Blake just waiting for him to make a mistake but we were all really about the same and then I think he made one, but then I made one and then Josh did, but I was just never close enough to really capitalize and once Blake got in to clean air, he was able to just pick his line and he was gone."

Race No. 107 on the season for Bryan Clauson, the Elk Grove Ford No. 17w crossed fourth with Sam Hafertepe, Jr. posting his 18th top five of the season with the National Tour in the Hwy. 79 Collision No. 15h. From ninth, Aaron Reutzel crossed sixth in the B.C. Fundz No. 87 with Jack Dover him trailing from 10th. Ian Madsen's No. 18 was eighth followed by Seth Bergman ninth and Matt Covington tenth.

A pair of Heat Races were contested on Thursday night with Ian Madsen and Bryan Clauson picking up wins. No provisionals were needed.

The Lucas Oil ASCS presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network returns to action on Sunday, July 31 at Badlands Motor Speedway in Brandon, S.D. for a $10,000 to win showdown at the three-eighths mile oval. Tickets can be purchased by Badlands Pawn as well as at the track.
