Kevin Swindell and Bayston Capture First Feature Win Together During All Star Show at Attica

Inside Line Promotions - ATTICA, Ohio (April 18, 2017) - It was only a few months ago when Kevin Swindell was scrambling to piece together his winged sprint car program.

A partnership with Spencer Bayston at the end of the 2016 season yielded strong results and the team entered this year with lofty expectations. However, not many people predicted the Swindell Speed Lab backed team would reach Victory Lane in only its 11th race.

That dream was achieved last Saturday when Bayston led the final 27 laps during the HD Supply Spring Nationals at Attica Raceway Park to capture the team's first career win at the Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions event.

"It's definitely a big deal," Swindell said. "It validates the effort and the time and spending the money. To go up there and race with those guys, Ohio is not an easy place to win a race, to do it in the fashion we did was big."

The victory was set up by a strong showing last Friday during the opening night of the doubleheader. Bayston qualified third quickest and placed third in a heat race before he maneuvered from eighth to third in the FAST 410 Series main event.

"As soon as we rolled the car out we were fast," he said. "We were really, really fast in qualifying and in the heat race. In the feature I was able to run where other guys weren't running and made it work. After having that much speed I knew we had a shot to run in the top three again on Saturday."

The team kicked off the All Star portion of the event by timing in fourth quickest overall on Saturday. Bayston, who was third quickest in his group, won a heat race after starting on the outside of the front row. That advanced him into the dash, where he picked up a position to finish fourth.

"We made sure we got the car plenty tight for the feature," Swindell said. "We hit it right and it looked easy. I was amazed at how easy it looked. I was shocked myself that we hit it that good.

"We had two yellows early and then we made a few good laps off the second restart and got to third. We ran down (Cole) Duncan and (Carson) Macedo racing. We got Duncan right before that caution came out. When Macedo broke it opened it up for us."

Bayston, who had climbed into second place by Lap 11, inherited the lead on Lap 14 and he never looked back.

"As soon as we took the green I knew we had a good car," he said. "I was able to get to third pretty quick and maneuver through traffic pretty well. I ran second down and was able to pass him. On the restart I was able to slide Carson for the lead. He got back by me. It would have been fun battling with him, but he dropped out with a blown motor. After that I was trying to be smooth and hit my marks.

"With the program we put together last year, they've worked so hard to get this put together. It's definitely a confidence booster for the rest of this season. Hopefully it's a sign of how the rest of the year will go."

The win marked three straight podiums for the team, which set a new track record before running second on April 7 at Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Ill.

The team will take this weekend off before returning to competition on April 28 at Plymouth Speedway in Plymouth, Ind., and April 29 at Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, Ind., with the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series.

Dover Earns Top 10 at Eagle, Eyeing Fourth Straight Year With Win at Park Jefferson

Inside Line Promotions - EAGLE, Neb. (April 19, 2017) - Jack Dover recorded a top-10 finish during his 305ci winged sprint car season debut last Saturday at Eagle Raceway, where he drove for Chris Roseland during the Ice Breaker Challenge with the IMCA Sprint Series of Nebraska.

"We moved forward and made progress so that's always a good night," Dover said. "The track was really slick in the heat race. Everything was around the bottom. When someone would slide up too far I'd get by them. We got up to fourth and that put us in the feature."

Dover advanced from seventh to fourth place in a heat race, which earned enough points to lock him into the 15th starting position in the main event.

"We were up to 10th in the first five laps," he said. "We got three more positions throughout the remainder of the race. We were fairly good at the beginning and at the end it started to slow down and we didn't pass a lot. Pretty much everyone was running the top and were the same speed."

Dover maneuvered to a seventh-place result, which marked his second top 10 in three races this season.

"I want to thank Chris and his team for the opportunity and I look forward to racing with them again soon," he said. "We won a lot of races together last year and I look for us to do the same throughout 2017."

Dover will return to his 360ci winged sprint car this Saturday at Park Jefferson International Speedway in Jefferson, S.D., with the Carpet Land Nebraska 360 Sprints. He has won all four races - three last year and one in 2015 - with the series at that track.

"The track is in between a 3/8 mile and a half mile," he said. "It's kind of fast. The track is always in great shape and races all over. You can go anywhere."

Dover has a victory at Park Jefferson International Speedway during three straight years. In fact, he has won five of seven races there during that span.

QUICK RESULTS -

April 15 - Eagle Raceway in Eagle, Neb. - Heat race: 4 (7); Feature: 7 (15).

SEASON STATS -

3 races, 0 wins, 1 top five, 2 top 10s, 2 top 15s, 2 top 20s

Big Game Motorsports and Madsen Aim for Victory at Knoxville Opener

Inside Line Promotions - WINDOM, Minn. (April 19, 2017) - With fingers crossed for positive weather, Big Game Motorsports and Kerry Madsen are venturing back to Knoxville Raceway this Saturday for its 64th annual season opener.

The scheduled opener last Saturday at the half-mile oval in Knoxville, Iowa, rained out and left the Muddy sponsored team without an opportunity to compete.

"We were able to get some laps on the track earlier that week and the car felt very fast," Madsen said. "We had some great lap times so we were really looking forward to the race, but Mother Nature intervened and we've had to be patient for another week."

Hopefully the patience pays off for the team, which has claimed the last two owners championships at Knoxville Raceway. Madsen is also a former track champion as he captured the crown in 2005.

"Guy Forbrook, the team and myself have all had a lot of success at Knoxville," he said. "I think we have all the pieces to contend for a win not only this Saturday, but any time we race at Knoxville. It's a great track and I always look forward to racing there."

Madsen has 19 career feature wins at Knoxville Raceway, including two victories last season. He also finished with five top fives and seven top 10s in nine races in 2016 to extend a streak of multiple top fives in each of the last four years.

SEASON STATS -

10 races, 1 win, 2 top fives, 7 top 10s, 9 top 15s, 10 top 20s

UP NEXT -

Saturday at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa
