Kyle Beard Races to Victory at Timberline Speedway with CCSDS

by Ben Shelton
CORLEY, Texas (May 16) – The COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) presented by Lucas Oil opened a doubleheader at Timberline Speedway on Friday night, and it was defending series champion, Kyle Beard, who raced to the $2,000 victory to become the eighth different winner in eight events in 2014.

Beard earned the Pole Award with Patrik Daniel joining him on the front row for the finale. The Trumann, Arkansas jumped to the lead at the drop of the green flag and paced the field during the first half of the 30 lapper as Daniel stalked him from the second position. Behind the leaders action began to heat up as Jon Mitchell, Timothy Culp, and Rick Hearnsberger diced for position.

Another driver on the move was fourteenth starting Billy Moyer Jr. who quickly worked his way into the top ten and rode just outside the top five by the race’s midway point.

While Beard enjoyed relative easy going during the race’s first half, he came under heavy fire by lap 15 as Daniel moved in to make a bid for the lead. The duo raced side-by-side for the next nine laps before Beard took back sole possession of the lead. He went on to lead the final six laps to claim the tenth series victory of his career. Daniel finished second with Jon Mitchell, Billy Moyer Jr., and Timothy Culp rounding out the top five finishers.

Kyle Beard won Heat Race #1 with Jon Mitchell winning Heat Race #2. Timothy Culp raced to victory in Heat Race #3.

Billy Moyer Jr. claimed the Hard Charger Aware for passing ten cars to finish fourth. The Hard Luck Award went to Brandon Smith, who found himself behind the eight ball for the remainder of the night after a heat race skirmish. 

On Saturday night, May 17th, drivers will go into battle in another $2,000-to-win/$300-to-start event at Timberline Speedway (Corley, Texas). Saturday's program will include Factory Stocks, Novice, and Limited Modifieds. Grandstand admission for adults is $20 with kids (ages 6-12) $5, and kids (ages 5 & under) FREE. Pit Passes are $35. Gates open at 5pm with racing action at 7:30pm. For more information on the event please visit www.TimberlineSpeedway.com .
