Inside Line Promotions – TULSA, Okla. (April 13, 2016) – Josh Baughman has a lot of confidence entering this weekend.
Baughman is coming off back-to-back top-five finishes, including his first career Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour triumph.
“We’ve been running really well lately,” he said. “Confidence is always good and momentum is great. We have both right now. We’re going to try to take that into Knoxville and Sedalia this weekend.”
Baughman will kick off this weekend on Saturday at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, for the track’s season opener. He scored a career-best runner-up result and finished with three top 10s at the famed half-mile oval last season.
“Every chance we can get we’d like to be at Knoxville,” he said. “Last year we were able to make a lot of trips there and we got really good there. This year we’re not as fortunate to get there as often so we’ll have to take advantage of the opportunities when we are there. We’ve been close to winning there two or three times. I feel like our team is good enough to compete for a win.”
The weekend wraps up with an ASCS Warrior Region show on Sunday at Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia, Mo., which is a short drive from one of Baughman’s top sponsors.
“That event is in the backyard for Fischer Body Shop so we’re excited to race in front of them,” he said. “I’ve never been to that track. With it being a day show I would assume the track will go dry and it will be the luck of the draw.”
