March 25 (Friday)
There were 52 Lucas Oil ASCS Sprints at the 38th Annual Spring Nationals Friday night. This was the first of two nights of racing at the historic 1/2-mile clay Devils Bowl Speedway in Mesquite, TX. In the 25-lap feature, Aaron Reutzel, #87, started on the pole, but a few laps into the race Jeff Swindell, #28, took the lead with Jason Johnson, #41, not too far behind. It looked like Jeff was going to take the win, but with one lap to go, he lost a tire coming out of turn 4, opening the door for Jason Johnson, #41, to get his first Lucas Oil ASCS presented by K&N Filters win of the young season. Coming in second was Sam Hafertepe Jr., #15h, Brady Bacon, #99, was third, Danny Lasoski, #33, was fourth, and Michael Dupuy, #33, was fifth. Jason's win locks him in, as well as Sam Hafertepe Jr., Brady Bacon and Danny Lasoski for tomorrow night's $6,000 to win finale.
