Jason Covert Impressive as 2010 Season Gets Underway

York Haven, PA (April 13, 2010) Barry Klinedinst Motorsports and the three time Mid-Atlantic Championship Series (MACS) Champion Jason Covert have opened up the 2010 season the same way they closed the 2009 season, in victory lane.

Jason has started three events so far in 2010; two at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, PA and one at Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, MD, and Covert has already picked up two wins and a second to start the new season. The first win came at Williams Grove on March 26 after Jason started ninth in the caution-free event but battled his way to the front and past Daryl Hills to capture his first win of the young season.

After taking the next weekend off to test at Virginia Motor Speedway, the BK Motorsports team entered the first two Three State Flyers series events at The Grove and Hagerstown this past weekend. Covert again had to start mid-pack (tenth) at Williams Grove but charged his way to the second spot by the 14th circuit and was gaining on race leader Jamie Lathroum but ran out of laps falling 2.72 seconds short on lap 35 to come home second in the $3,000 to-win event. The following night, Hagerstown hosted its own $3,000 to-win event, one in which Jason dominated. Covert won his heat race, won the dash, and led all 35 laps of the A-Main to capture the checkered flag.” “The credit has to go to the crew, my owner and my wife,” said Covert in victory lane. “I want to dedicate this to my wife. We lost one of her grandma’s while the other grandma was in the hospital last Saturday. “I left here while watching so this is for her. I told her I’d try to not let her down tonight. “It’s been a pretty hard week for everybody in our family.”

Covert also has brand new T-Shirts on sale for the 2010 season. Two different designs by KRS Graphics are available for this year. A white T-Shirt that features the classic yellow #43A and some of the major wins and championships Jason has won in his career and a new black Covert Operation Tour T-Shirt. #43A License Plates and Decals are also available. You can pick up your Jason Covert apparel at the BK Motorsports hauler at any event they attend or online through Jasons wife Jaynelle via e-mail at jaynellecovert@hotmail.com.

This weekend the team plans on heading to the much anticipated $25,000 to-win Commonwealth 100 at Jamaica, VAs Virginia Motor Speedway sanctioned by the World of Outlaws Late Model Series on Friday and Saturday, April 16 and 17. The team will then prepare for a pair of $10,000 to-win Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events at Bedford Speedway in Bedford, PA and Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, MD on Friday and Saturday, April 23 and 24. The team will then help open up the OReilly All Star Late Model Series season with a trip to Lernerville Speedway for the $5,000 to-win Showdown in Sarvertown on Friday, April 30 and KC Raceway in Chillicothe, OH for the Classic paying $10,000 to the winner.
