Bryan Hulbert \u2013 CRANDALL, Texas (May 31, 2018) Gaining momentum week after week, Sam Hafertepe, Jr. came away from a weekend double with the Griffith Truck and Equipment ASCS Gulf South Region with his fourth win of the season.<\/p>\n

Topping action at RPM Speedway on Friday night, Sam used a late race caution to dash around Tennessee\u2019s Terry Gray for the win.<\/p>\n

\u201cI tried to run the top to get by him, but under open green flag laps, it was hard to gauge if that was the place to be. A few guys poked their heads up there and tried, but the bottom was so dominate you just wanted to ride,\u201d explained Hafertepe.<\/p>\n

\u201cI waited all race long for Terry to make a mistake, and he just never did where you could get by him. With the pressure I was feeling, I knew it was time to make something happen, so on the restart, I hit the middle. I figured if there a time it was going to work, that was it, and once I got by him, I dropped to protect the line.\u201d<\/p>\n

Heading to Devil\u2019s Bowl Speedway on Saturday, the Heidbreder Foundation No. 15h rolled to a runner-up finish behind Ray Allen Kulhanek.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a couple runs on Ray. The first time I had him lined up and the caution for Covington saved him then the second time, we got the run with about three to go and got to him, then just got caught in dirty air. As good as the track was, there wasn\u2019t really anything coming off the bottom of turn-two and I just timed it wrong when I got there, but all in all, the last few races, we\u2019ve had some really good cars. I think we\u2019re just as fast, if not faster than we were at this time last year with the changes we\u2019ve been making.\u201d<\/p>\n

With a streak of top-five finishes now five races long, with fourth podium finishes and three wins included, the Hills Racing Team No. 15h is hitting a stride at just the right time as the team prepares for the 2018 ASCS Sizzlin\u2019 Summer Speedweek.<\/p>\n

Taking the time to further test and tune, Hafertepe is slated to be on track this weekend with the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Red River Region presented by Smiley\u2019s Racing Products at Red Dirt Raceway in Meeker, Okla. on Friday, June 1 and Tri-State Speedway in Pocola, Okla. on Saturday, June 2.<\/p>\n
