Randy Weaver Continues Impressive Year With Southern All Star Talladega Win

SAS PR
EASTABOGA, AL (May 2) - The Southern All Star Dirt Racing Series rolled into Talladega Short Track Saturday night for their annual spring NASCAR Weekend date and once again the series did not disappoint as 36 super late models checked in for the 40 lap $4,000 to win event and the hottest dirt late driver in the country continued his winning ways as Randy Weaver of Crossville, TN., set fast time in White Performance qualifying at 14.652 and then went on to led all 40 laps of the main on his way to his 4th straight Southern All Star victory and 8th overall this season across the country.

Weaver jumped into the lead at the drop of the green flag as he pulled ahead of outside pole sitter Riley Hickman, with Todd Morrow falling into the third spot Brandon Kinzer fourth and Adam Martin fifth.  Weaver then started to pull away from the field early and then began working his way through lapped traffic midway through the race as he would go high or low to get around them and worked lapped traffic to near perfection as attrition was low and the cars were their all night.

Meanwhile behind Weaver as in the past four races, the battle for the second spot has been spectacular as Hickman, Morrow and Ronnie Johnson who worked his way up from his 7th starting spot all battled it out for the second spot lap after lap, then late in the race Adam Martin decided he wanted a piece of the action and he got to mixing it up with the trio for the second spot.

At the drop of the checkered flag Weaver laid claim to his 30th series win, Hickman won the battle for the second spot over Johnson in third, Morrow fourth for a complete Tennessee sweep of the top four, but Talladega’s Adam Martin held up the flag for the Alabama drivers as he claimed the fifth spot.

Brandon Kinzer finished 6th, Grant Pearl driving a Randy Weaver backup car was 7th, Jason Hiett 8t Ivedent Lloyd Jr 9th and Chris Wilson 10th.

The next Southern All Star Dirt Racing Series event will be on Saturday night May 23rd at the Tennessee National Raceway in Hohenwald, TN., a 40 lap $4,000 to win event.

Southern All Star Dirt Racing Series continues to work its schedule out for the 2015 season and if any tracks would like to be a part of the 32nd year of Southern All Star Dirt Series racing please call Lynn Acklin at 256-924-4546 or email at lynn.acklin@sasdirt.com
