Clanton Cruises To Second World of Outlaws Late Model Series Victory Of 2015 At Volusia's DIRTcar Nationals

 

Georgia Driver Continues Stellar Early-Season Hot Streak With Dominating Performance On Thursday Night

BARBERVILLE, Fla. - Feb. 19, 2015 - Shane Clanton of Zebulon, Ga., continued his tremendous start to the 2015 season with a dominating display in Thursday's DIRTcar Nationals A-Main at Volusia Speedway Park.

Clanton, the 39-year-old World of Outlaws Late Model Series veteran, led every lap of Thursday's 50-lap race to earn his second WoO LMS victory of the season and his second victory during the 2015 version of Volusia's six-day stretch of Super Late Model racing.

"This shows how hard we worked over the winter to get where we're at," said Clanton, whose only opposition came in the form of brief challenges from runner-up Don O'Neal of Martinsville, Ind., and third-place finisher Jonathan Davenport of Blairsville, Ga., following restarts. "This sport is grueling at times and great at others. Right now it's just great to me."

Indeed, 2015 has been more than kind to Clanton thus far. Following a disappointing 2014 campaign, Clanton has been fantastic in his Weldbank Energy-sponsored Capital Race Car this season with top-five finishes in all five WoO LMS events and a DIRTcar-sanctioned victory during Monday's DIRTcar Nationals opener to go along with his two WoO LMS triumphs. The early-season hot streak has landed Clanton firmly atop the WoO LMS standings by 64 points as he chases his first series title.

"It feels great to know what it feels like to win a lot again," said Clanton, who ended a 66-race WoO LMS winless streak with his first victory of the year at Screven Motor Speedway in Sylvania, Ga., on Feb. 7. "It's been a long struggle to get where we're at, but we work hard and never give up."

O'Neal crossed the finish line well behind Clanton in the second spot, with Davenport farther back in third. Kent Robinson of Bloomington, Ind., advanced from his 19th starting spot to finish fourth with 12th-starting Earl Pearson Jr. of Jacksonville, Fla., rounding out the top five in a race slowed by five cautions, all for either slowing cars or single-car spins.

O'Neal gave Clanton his biggest challenge following a lap-29 restart, using the high side to nearly pull even with the leader exiting turn two. But O'Neal's bid came up empty and after a similar challenge following the race's final restart on lap 33, Clanton pulled to more than a five-second advantage in the closing laps.

O'Neal fell short of claiming his first DIRTcar Nationals victory since 2011, but the 50-year-old racer was boosted by the strong performance.

"I couldn't run it any harder than I ran it up there them couple of laps," said O'Neal, who pilots a Peak Antifreeze and Motor Oil-sponsored Barry Wright Race Car for Clint Bowyer Racing. I realized when I couldn't get buy him I was just getting the tires hot, so I had to move back down.

"This is a lot better than we've been doing. We just lacked a little bit there when (the track surface) slicked off. But we've got something to work with now so maybe we can have another good couple of nights."

Davenport ran second for much of the race's first half, but he wasn't able to keep pace with Clanton and eventually allowed O'Neal to slip passed him following a lap-16 restart. With his third-place result, the 31-year-old Davenport recorded the best DIRTcar Nationals finish of his career in his Lee Roy and Kevin Rumley-owned Longhorn Chassis.

"We're finally getting a little better here," said Davenport, whose previous best DIRTcar Nationals finish was a fifth-place result in 2011. "I ain't ever been any good at this place when it comes feature time. I've won a bunch of heat races, but as soon as it gets slick I struggle.

"Kevin's been working on the car and getting it really good and maybe my driving's getting a little better. Maybe tomorrow we'll move up and try to get a win."

Dale McDowell of Chickamauga, Ga., was sixth in Thursday's final rundown after climbing as high as third midway through the race. Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., advanced from his 15th starting spot to finish seventh, while three-time and defending WoO LMS champion Darrell Lanigan of Union, Ky., charged from 24th to eighth.

Jimmy Owens of Newport, Tenn., recovered to finish ninth after having to start from the tail of the field because he switched to a backup car when his primary machine suffered mechanical woes during his heat race victory. He was followed at the finish by 18th-starting Steve Francis of Union, Ky.

A number of drivers charged into contention only to fade late in the race. Three-time WoO LMS champion Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va., quickly advanced from his 10th starting spot into the top five, but faded during the race's middle portions. A pit stop under a lap-26 caution dropped him to a 19th-place finish. Tim McCreadie of Watertown, N.Y., advanced into the top five from his 20th starting spot, but a lap-33 spin relegated the former series champion to a 15th at the checkereds.

The DIRTcar Nationals continue on Friday with another $10,000-to-win World of Outlaws Late Model Series event. Friday's slate features a complete program of time trials, heat races, B-Mains and a 50-lap A-Main. The Super DIRTcar Series Big-Block Modifieds will also contest a complete program.

Friesen Ices Super DIRTcar Series Foes at DIRTcar Nationals

Wins at Volusia Speedway Park for third consecutive year

By Mike Mallett

BARBERVILLE, Fla. - Feb. 19, 2015 - For the third consecutive year, Stewart Friesen captured the second night of Super DIRTcar Big-Block Modified Series action at Volusia Speedway Park's annual DIRTcar Nationals on Thursday night.

Friesen, the defending event champion, swiped the lead from three-time series titlist Matt Sheppard en route to winning the 30-lap feature, marking the sixth time in his career he's won in the Sunshine State.

"We had a great race car," said Friesen, defending Syracuse 200 winner from Sprakers, N.Y. "We worked a lot of bugs out last night and learned a lot of stuff about the speedway. We were able to find that grip there in the middle and just sneak up on there."

Billy Pauch started on the front row alongside Rick Laubach for the Modified main event. Laubach got the jump at the green putting his No. 7 out in front of the field. He led the first few circuits as Matt Sheppard worked forward from the outside of the second row into the runner-up position. Once there he began stalking Laubach for the lead.

Sheppard worked by Laubach on lap four on the inside of turns three and four to take over the top position. Before another lap could be completed, the caution was displayed for Tim Kerr as he spun in the middle of turn setting up a double-file restart. At the green Sheppard remained the leader while Friesen took his car to the middle lane on the speedway, which allowed him to move from the fourth position into second.

Friesen stalked Sheppard for the next three laps before making his move for the lead. As Sheppard attempted to protect the bottom lane on the speedway, Friesen drove right by him in the middle. Sheppard hung with Friesen for a few laps before he was able to open up the gap on the field.

"After that first start we found it (middle groove) when we fell back to fourth," Friesen said. "We got up in the middle and got up on top and it started rolling. Matt was on the bottom and we were just able to find that rubber in the center and check out."

Friesen showed the way at the halfway point as he caught the tail end of the field. He refused to give up the middle lane as he attempted to put cars down a lap. Sheppard, meanwhile, had his hands full with Danny Johnson as well as Tim Fuller right as the caution came out for Wednesday night's runner-up finisher Anthony Perrego, who stopped at the exit of turn two.

The caution bunched the field and gave everyone another shot at Friesen. He wasted little time after the green flag to expand his gap on the field as he kept his Tom and Roxanne Cullen-owned ride in the middle of the track. Sheppard ran a similar line, but wasn't good enough to stay with Friesen.

Friesen again checked out on the field. He ran consistently strong lap times allowing him to pull away from Sheppard. They remained in the top two positions as the laps began to wind down. Friesen again fought traffic on lap 23 before the final caution of the race came one lap later as Jimmy Phelps slowed on the speedway. The caution gave Friesen the opportunity to cool down his Hoosier tires.

"When Jimmy (Phelps) stopped there it actually helped me out," Friesen said. "It let my tires cool off a little bit. We were real good for five or six laps at the beginning of a run before it kind of started to go the other way. It started to push the right front out the longer we went. It really helped us out and let our stuff cool down."

The race resumed with Friesen holding off Sheppard over the final six laps to score his first win of the 2015 season. Sheppard, who struggled on Wednesday night, was happy to finish in the runner-up position aboard his Heinke-Baldwin Racing-owned car.

"We are getting a lot better," said Sheppard, of Waterloo, N.Y. "We took off at the drop of the green. The car felt really good, felt really balanced and thought we had a good line there. Stewie (Friesen) went by me around the top so I decided to try it up there. I didn't realize the track had already started to lock down. Guess if we had moved up there a little sooner we would have had a shot."

Johnson fought his way back by Wednesday night winner Brett Hearn and Fuller to earn the final spot on the podium with his Chris Gennarelli-owned No. 27J Bicknell.

"I really appreciate this hot rod, it is really fast," Johnson said. "I think we could have been a hair bit better. We got stuck there behind Laubach on the restart and he was backing up and we couldn't get going. We are really happy to be here. We'll try it again tomorrow night."

Fuller ended up finishing in the fourth spot after he started from the inside of the third row with his Dave Rauscher-owned No. 19 Bicknell. He was followed to the line by Hearn, who worked from ninth to complete the top-five.

Racing returns Friday night at Volusia Speedway Park for the 11th day of the DIRTcar Nationals. Gates open at 5 p.m. and racing begins at 7:30 p.m.
