Getting the season off the ground this past weekend in Louisiana, Christopher Townsend added his name to the list of winners with the ASCS Hurricane Area Super Sprints at Baton Rouge Raceway. Jan Howard, Jason Breeland, Bandon Blendon, and Blake Carrier are currently among the top five in tour standings.
