There was a special “Night Before the June Jam” that was ran that was won by Rick Corbin of Independence, KY. -The “Night Before the June Jam” was the first event the O’Reilly Auto Parts NARA Battle of the Bluegrass Dirt Car Series presented by Arizona Sport Shirts ever sanctioned at Bluegrass Speedway. -All June Jam events have been sanctioned by the O’Reilly Auto Parts Battle of the Bluegrass DirtCar Series presented by Graphic Impressions. -Eddie Carrier, Jr. of Salt Rock, West Virginia was the inaugural June Jam winner in 2002 over Darrell Lanigan, Rick Corbin, Joey Daniel, and James Huff. If Corbin had won both nights, he would have gotten a $1,000 bonus for winning on Friday and Saturday nights. The win by Carrier, Jr. would help the second generation racer claim the inaugural Battle of the Bluegrass Series championship back in 2002. -The 2003 version of the June Jam saw Darrell Lanigan of Union, KY follow up a win in the Eldora Dream the weekend before with an impressive performance in the 2003 June Jam event. Steve Barnett, Steve Landrum, Whitney McQueary, and Bryan Barber completed the top five. -The 2004 edition of the June Jam fell victim to Mother Nature as continuous afternoon rain showers forced promoters David and Anita Ferrell to cancel the event around 4:00 p.m. that afternoon with well over 30 entries already sitting in a rain soaked pit area. -The 2005 June Jam was once again a victim of Mother Nature as rain showers began falling at the ½ mile Nelson County dirt oval around 4:45 on Saturday afternoon after earlier showers had already wet the area. The decision was then made around 5:30 to cancel the event, with 32 Late Models in the pit area at the time of the cancellation and others parked out in the parking lot. -For 2006, the event would go on a beautiful Saturday evening that saw the weather not play a factor in the evening’s activities and Brad Neat of Dunnville, KY would continue a mid-season hot streak of top finishes as he would claim the $3,000 payday in the June Jam over Chris Combs, Aaron Hatton, Jason Keltner, and Mike Jewell. -Mike Jewell of Scottsburg, IN would add his name to the list of winners for the June Jam event in 2007 as the two-time and defending O’Reilly NARA Battle of the Bluegrass DirtCar Series champion would make this event his first “BoB Late Model” win of 2007. Jewell would see the checkered flag first in front of Dustin Neat, Bryan Barber, Tyrel Todd, and Victor Lee. -The 2008 June Jam would see a photo-finish as Eric Wells of Hazard, KY would make a turn four, last lap pass of Jason Keltner to score his first ever O’Reilly Battle of the Bluegrass DirtCar Series victory by about three feet at the finish. The remainder of the top five would be David Webb, Tim Tungate, and Johnny Wheeler. -The 2009 June Jam would see David Webb of Nicholasville, KY top a 36 car field after starting 15th in the June Jam and claim his second career victory at Bluegrass Speedway, worth $3,000. Brad Neat would take runner-up honors in the 30 lap event, with Victor Lee scoring a third place finish. Fourth would fall to Mike Marlar, with Jason Jameson completing the top five in his first ever visit to Bluegrass Speedway. -A total of sixty-eight (68) different drivers have taken the green flag to start the previous June Jam events. -There were six drivers that made their first June Jam in 2009. They were Jason Jameson, Steve Francis, D.J. Wells, Jordan Bland, Brandon Kinzer, and Terry English
