Tazewell Speedway
TAZEWELL, Tenn. (April 12) - The Steel Head Late Model division started off with fours drivers breaking the track qualifying record set last season. Fastest qualifier Travis Fultz, with a lap of 11.841 seconds, started on the front row alongside Jason Trammel. It was Trammel setting pace early with a heavy battle for third between Derrick York, Kip Pearson, and Steve Smith. As Billy Gordon spun on lap number five bringing out the caution, York and Pearson dropped out with engine troubles. On the restart Trammel set his Hatmaker Holdings, Trammel Construction, Tobbler Heating and Air, Fast Lane Signs & Graphics sponsored Warrior Chassis with a Vic Hill Racing engine on cruise control to take the checkers with Fultz finishing second followed by Smith, Steve Carr, and Keith Chapman. In victory lane Trammel said, "the track was the smoothest it had been in several years."
A new racing division debuted at Tazewell Speedway on Saturday night. The FASTRACK sanctioned Crate Late Models use engines that are built by General Motors with drivers not allowed to make any modifications to the motor. Jason Trammel set quick time with a lap of 12.557 seconds. At the start of the feature Clinton, TN driver Mark Leach put his Stone Plus, White's Total Performance, Stealth Carburetor sponsored DWB Chassis Impala SS up front and never looked back to take his first victory at Tazewell Speedway.
