BEEBE, Ark. (May 9) - Kyle Beard finds the high groove to his liking during Friday nights AMP feature race at Beebe Speedway. Starting 20th position in the pack, Kyle Beard had his work cut out for him, if he wanted to make his presence known. He began his charge to the front by holding his #86 GRT by Frye, Samuels Performance Engine tight on the inside groove of Kenny Morden's ¼ mile dirt oval. The inside groove proved to make him some headway, but when he decided to give the outside cushin a try he found the sweet spot that enabled him to begin picking off his fellow competitors at a steady pace. Grabbing the crowds attention he soared around the topside of the track with lightning speed. As he passed the leader the fans responded with clapping and cheers, and continued to honor the young gun from Trumann AR as he climbed out of his car in victory lane.
Beard wasn't the only driver to have a successful evening. AMP points leader Allen Tippen ran among the top three spots throughout the entire race and finished a close second behind Beard. Jon "Catman" Mitchell brought his GRT by Catman home with a third place finish after running among the top five all evening. Ronnie Adams of Longview Texas earned a respectable fourth place finish. While Russellville's favorite driver Dewaine Hottinger took home the fifth place honors. The well-known driver of the #TEN machine Mike Bowers, of Little Rock placed sixth. Terry Henson of North Little Rock had his career best finish of the season as he crossed the start finish line in the seventh place. "Kid Smooth" Billy Moyer Jr had a good points night to add to his fifth place spot in the AMP points standing by finishing eighth. The #2 Flying C Ranch sponsored car of Charlie Cole ran another consistent race bringing home a 9th place finish, and the 5W machine of Johnny Waters, Harrisburg AR rounded out the top ten.
