Eddie Carrier Jr. Wins $10k at East Bay for Second Win of 2015

Salt Rock, West Virginia (02/17/15) - Eddie Carrier Jr. continued his red-hot start to the 2015 season by powering his Grover Motorsports #28 Optima Batteries/Rocket/Grover Racing Engine Super Late Model to the $10,000 win at East Bay Raceway Park (Gibsonton, Florida) on Friday night during the 39th Annual Winternationals with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS). The victory marked his second of the 2015 season.

“I want to thank my car owner, Carl Grover. He gave me the chance several years ago to drive his cars, and it has been the best thing to ever happen to me other than marrying my wife, Jamie,” said Carrier Jr. “I have to thank Engines Inc, Optima Batteries, Sunoco Race Fuels and all of my sponsors, my crew, and especially my dad (Eddie Carrier Sr.) for all he does. He works his tail off every day on this car.”

In preliminary action, Eddie posted the fastest lap in Group B of LOLMDS time trials, earning him the pole position for his heat race. Carrier Jr. would later finish second in his heat race behind Jared Landers, which locked him into the sixth starting spot for the evening's 50 lap main event. Carrier Jr. took the lead from Moran on lap 31, only to see Moran assume the point again one circuit later. Eddie used lapped traffic to his advantage to take control for the final time on lap 44. He led the final six laps to the victory over Moran, Jimmy Owens, Jared Landers and Jonathan Davenport.

Throughout the course of the week at East Bay Raceway Park Carrier Jr. posted three top ten finishes including the victory. The team now turns their attention to March 20th-21st, when LOLMDS competition resumes with events at Atomic Speedway (Chillicothe, Ohio) and Brownstown Speedway (Brownstown, Indiana).

Eddie is currently fifth in the latest LOLMDS standings. Full results from the events as well as the latest standings are available at www.LucasDirt.com .

Team Dillon Racing Reigns Supreme in DIRTCar Nationals at VSP

Welcome, North Carolina (02/17/15) – Team Dillon Racing with Austin Dillon and Ty Dillon at the helm enjoyed an outstanding week of racing at the DIRTCar Nationals at Volusia Speedway Park (Gibsonton, Florida), where the duo collectively claimed four wins, the $5,000 Gator Championship, and the overall UMP Modified DIRTCar Nationals title.

Austin Dillon raced to the victory in the first round on February 10th, and backed it up with wins on February 15th to go with the $5,000 triumph in the Gator Championship on February 16th. Via his outstanding performances he was crowned the 2015 UMP Modified DIRTCar Nationals point champion.
"It was on a rail, it was really fast," said Dillon, driver of the famous black #3 car in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and grandson of legendary car owner, Richard Childress. "I guess Ty got to me in lap traffic, I didn't know he was there. But that was fun, it was a heck of a race. It's awesome for Team Dillon Racing to go one-two, and like I said I've been coming down here for quite a few years now and to finally win a big Gator [trophy] feels awesome.”

In addition to finishing second in the Gator Championship finale, Ty Dillon also found victory on February 13th at the ½ mile oval. The Dillon brothers finished in the top five in all seven events that they entered. Full results from the week are available at www.DIRTCarNationals.com .
