Babb Claims Brownstown Summer Nationals ‘Hell Tour’ Win

BROWNSTOWN, Ind. - July 12, 2011 - Shannon Babb is becoming quite the familiar face in Victory Lane starting the final week of DIRTcar Summer Nationals Hell Tour competition after winning Tuesday night at Brownstown Speedway.

Babb started second and ran third behind early leader Jeep Van Wormer before contact between Van Wormer and Dream 100 winner Don O'Neal sent O'Neal pit side and left Van Wormer with an ill handling car. Babb would capitalize with 10 laps remaining, leading the remaining distance to earn the win worth $5,000. Babb's win is his fifth of the tour, winning all three events held in the Hoosier state in 2011. Former DIRTcar Summer Nationals Champion Dennis Erb Jr., of Carpentersville, Ill., would finish second after being involved in a lap one caution, which the winner Babb was also caught in. Dunville, Ky., driver Dustin Neat finished third ahead of fellow Kentuckian Dillan White of Crofton. Jack Sullivan rounded out the top five climbing from his 11th place starting spot.

Babb, who is seeking his third 'Hell Tour' championship, extends his point lead heading into the final four events of the 2011 DIRTcar Summer Nationals to 206 points over Scott James of Lawrenceburg, Ind., and 286 points over Erb.
