Jason timed in 20th overall and rode his fourth place heat race finish into the 'First State 50'. Covert drove to a solid 13th place finish in the caution free event after starting 16th. 'We weren't as good as we wanted to be but those guys (WoO drivers) are the best in the business,' stated Covert. 'It's never easy to pass those guys and when you're just a little off, it makes it that much more difficult.'

The event is part of the Hagerstown/Winchester Shootout and will go 40 laps in distance.
