BYRAM, Miss. – Taking the lead with 12 laps remaining, Timothy Culp charged to the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series presented by Lucas Oil feature win on Saturday night at Jackson Motor Speedway.
The $3,000 triumph marked his second series’ triumph this year.
“I haven’t been here in a late model in several years. I guess I kinda miss this place,” said Culp. “It kinda fits my driving style. You know, you kinda got to get up on the wheel and be a little aggressive and you can root around there pretty good. The car was good. We could move all over the racetrack. Me and Bub (McCool) had a pretty good run. I was watching him, seeing where he was struggling just a little bit there the longer the race got and we caught him … just tried to figure out a good time to pass him in lapped traffic and stuff and it all worked out.”
While Culp sat on the pole for the feature event, it was fellow, front-row starter Bub McCool, who jumped to the lead as the 35-lap affair went green on Saturday night.
McCool paced the first 22 circuits before Culp shot past the Mississippi racer on lap 23 in lapped traffic to take over the top spot. Once out front the driver of the No. c8 Super Late Model cruised to the $3,000 victory by 1.467 seconds over McCool.
Kyle Beard, Tony Jackson Jr. and B.J. Robinson completed the top-five finishers.
The finish:
Timothy Culp, Bub McCool, Kyle Beard, Tony Jackson Jr., B.J. Robinson, Hunter Rasdon, Michael Arnold, Chad Thrash, Scott Crigler, Morgan Bagley, Brian Rickman, Zach McMillan, Doug Sanchagrin, Chad Mallett, Monte Skinner, Spencer Hughes, David Payne.
