Kulhanek Makes Bid for First Career ASCS National Win during Speedweek Finale

Inside Line Promotions - WHEATLAND, Mo. (June 21, 2016) - Ray Allen Kulhanek was close to capping the 24th annual Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour Sizzlin' Summer Speedweek with his first career ASCS National Tour victory last Saturday at Lucas Oil Speedway.

Kulhanek, who tackled the final four Speedweek nights driving for Jeff and J.J. Simmons, won a heat race, advanced to third place in a qualifier and had maneuvered from his eighth starting position into the top three early in the main event.

"When we hit lapped traffic you could have thrown a blanket over me, Brad Loyet and Sam Hafertepe Jr.," he said. "I had a really, really good car. I went to go slide Loyet. I drove straight across the middle. As soon as I started rotating to get to the cushion I couldn't help it from spinning. It stepped out on me. I wasn't expecting the car to jump sideways on me. I got on the gas to spin it around and I got collected by another driver. I'm super disappointed with how it turned out. I feel like I should have had my first national win."

Kulhanek was unable to finish the race and he was credited with a 20th-place result, which was his first outside of the top 15 during the busy week.

"We had a lot of ups and downs," he said. "I felt like we had plenty of speed. I was trying to learn what to do and what not to do. J.J.'s car has a different engine and chassis and shocks than I'm used to. We made strides by the end of the Speedweek."

Last week began on Wednesday at Lawton Speedway in Lawton, Okla., where Kulhanek placed fifth in a heat race before winning a B Main. He then maneuvered from 18th to 13th place in the main event.

"We got the car really good for the B Main and made a small adjustment for the main event," he said. "We were middle of the road there. We'd go forward and then lose a couple of spots. On the restarts it'd take me three or four laps to get going again. Everything I'd gain I'd lose on the restarts."

Creek County Speedway in Sapulpa, Okla., hosted action the ensuing night. Kulhanek finished second in a heat race and seventh in a qualifier to garner the 15th starting position in the main event.

"We made the show and we drove up to about ninth," he said. "About halfway through the race the groove started going away for me with the way the car was. I started searching trying to keep the car going. I was just hanging on at that point."

Kulhanek ended with a 14th-place result.

The team ventured to Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia, Mo., last Friday. Kulhanek scored a third-place result in a heat race to lock himself into the 11th starting position in the feature.

"We ran around the top 10 for the first part of the race," he said. "We started fading early, but the longer we ran the better I was getting. We got a caution and I thought it'd help, but I had a wing slider break on me. That killed my chances there on picking up more spots."

Kulhanek settled for a 13th-place finish.

He is scheduled to take the next month off before returning to action July 22 at Heart O' Texas Speedway in Waco, Texas, and July 23 at Cotton Bowl Speedway in Paige, Texas, with the ASCS Gulf South Region.

Hagar Registers 40th Career USCS Victory with Triumph at East Alabama

Inside Line Promotions - PHENIX CITY, Ala. (June 21, 2016) - Derek Hagar has found a home away from home in the Winner's Circle at East Alabama Motor Speedway.

Hagar, who scored his first career sprint car win at the track in 2007, claimed his fifth career victory at the oval last Saturday during the 27-lap Randy Helton Memorial with the USCS Series.

"It's one of those race tracks that a lot of people don't run the top of," he said. "It suits my style. I like running the top. You have to be patient on a track like that and try not to use your tires up and make the right moves."

Hagar did just that as he advanced from third to second place in the dash and from seventh to second place in a heat race. That made him the high-points driver. Hagar started the main event on the outside of the second row following a four-car inversion.

"I rode in third for the early part of the race and passed Terry Gray for second around Lap 7," he said. "A few laps later I had a good run around the top in turns one and two. The leader kept going to the middle and I drove around him going down the back straightaway. We had good, clean air and finally got the balance of the car right. It was pretty smooth racing after that."

Hagar took the lead on Lap 11 and he cruised to his 40th career USCS victory. It was his ninth win of the year and fourth with the USCS this season. It also keeps Hagar's podium streak alive with the series. He hasn't finished outside the top three during any of his nine USCS races this year.

Friday's opening round at East Alabama Motor Speedway rained out.

Hagar will return to action this Friday at Moulton Speedway in Moulton, Ala., and Saturday at Fort Payne Speedway in Fort Payne, Ala., with the ASCS Southern Outlaw Sprints.

QUICK RESULTS -

June 18 - East Alabama Motor Speedway in Phenix City, Ala. - Dash: 2 (3); Heat race: 2 (7); Feature: 1 (4).

SEASON STATS -

26 races, 9 wins, 21 top fives, 22 top 10s, 23 top 15s, 24 top 20s
