Bryan Hulbert \u2013 WHEATLAND, Mo. (September 14, 2023) A last-minute decision to race the Hockett\/McMillin Memorial paid off for Oklahoma\u2019s Ryan Timms as the DriveWFX.com No. 5t stood atop the podium with the American Sprint Car Series presented by RacinDirt.com every time he hit the surface of the Lucas Oil Speedway.<\/p>\n
The 16th different winner on the season and 22nd at Lucas Oil Speedway in 42 appearances, Timms guaranteed his spot in Saturday\u2019s $ 10,000-to-win championship event.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe actually weren\u2019t planning on coming here until Tuesday, but I\u2019m glad we came,\u201d stated Timms.<\/p>\n
\u201cStarting on the pole, we were able to lead every lap. I was running the bottom until I heard Blake [Hahn] and moved up, then it started taking rubber about Lap 15. After that, I could smell it and settled into it, but it\u2019s awesome to win here. Hopefully, we can get the win on Saturday because this really is a bucket list race to win at.\u201d<\/p>\n
Caution coming off the final turn set up a green, white, checkered finish. Protecting his line through the final set of turns, Timms was able to pull away by 1.217-seconds over Blake Hahn. Third went to Jamie Ball, with Derek Hagar rolling tenth to fourth. Picking up two spots, Garet Williamson completed the top five.<\/p>\n
Howard Moore was sixth, followed by Steve Russell, who charged through the field 15 positions to earn the KSE Hard Charger of the Race. Jeremy Campbell, Brandon Anderson, and Joe B. Miller made up the top ten.<\/p>\n
The opening night of the Hockett\/McMillin Memorial saw 41 drivers draw in, and 40 take a competitive green flag lap. Garet Williamson set a new ASCS Track Record at 13.549-seconds. AR Dyno Specialty Heat Race wins went to Howard Moore, Ryan Timms, Chris Martin, Zane DeVault, and Jeremy Campbell. BMRS B-Features went to Landon Britt and Gage Montgomery.<\/p>\n
Friday\u2019s field of 49 drivers is set to qualify on Friday night. Once both prelim nights have concluded, the Top 8 in overall event point will lock into Saturday\u2019s $10,000 to win feature. Friday\u2019s event goes green at 7:05 P.M. (CDT).<\/p>\n
