Jake Bubak Leads All With The American Sprint Car Series At WaKeeney Speedway

Bryan Hulbert – WAKEENEY, Kan. (July 1, 2023) A lifetime of laps growing up racing at WaKeeney Speedway continues to pay off for Jake Bubak, who, for the second year in a row, rolled into Victory Lane with the American Sprint Car Series presented by RacinDirt.com.

“We definitely made up for last night,” stated Bubak, who suffered a DNF Friday. “I have to thank Patrick so much. He and I are gelling right now, and these engines run unbelievably. Very thankful to him and his family for bringing me out here.”

A $5,000 payday for the Colorado shoe, Bubak raced wheel-to-wheel with Blake Hahn through the opening lap. Able to jump ahead of the DriveWFX.com No. 52, the pair were quick into traffic numerous times. Allowing Hahn to close and look for room to advance on the 360 Civil No. 27b, the cautions would keep bringing the leaders back into clean air, but not without a few close calls.

Able to avoid disaster through the back markers, the final restart on Lap 19 saw Bubak dart away by 0.906-seconds. Blake Hahn in second, was followed by Jason Martin, Oklahoma’s Whit Gastineau fourth was followed by Brandon Anderson.

Going after the No. 55b numerous times, Matt Covington would have to settle for sixth, with Zach Blurton seventh. Jordon Mallett, Jeremy Huish, and Howard Moore completed the top ten.

The 25-car field was topped in Driver’s Project Qualifying by Blake Hahn, who topped his track record of 14.700-seconds with a 14.673-second lap. Three AR Dyno Specialty Heat Races were won by Chris Morgan, Brandon Anderson, and Whit Gastineau.

The next event for the American Sprint Car Series presented by RacinDirt.com is the Steve King Memorial at Dodge City Raceway Park in Dodge City, Kan. on Friday, July 7 ($3,000 to win, $400 to start), and Saturday, July 8 ($5,088 to win, $500 to start).

The 2023 season will mark the 32nd year of competition for the American Sprint Car Series. Spearheaded by the American Sprint Car Series National Tour, the ASCS Nation includes Regional Tours that encompass both wing and non-wing competition.

Hahn Rallies For Epic ASCS Score Over Dover At Boone County Raceway

Bryan Hulbert – ALBION, Neb. (June 30, 2023) Making his fourth start of the season with the American Sprint Car Series presented by RacinDirt.com on Friday at Boone County Raceway, Oklahoma’s Blake Hahn held off the charge of Nebraska’s Jack Dover at the line by 0.008-seconds.

“We had a really good car, and Jack was fast there at the end. He gave it all he had in that last corner, but we were able to get by. Going down the front stretch dragging, I put the pedal down as far as she’d go, and I might have floated the valves a little bit, but that was all she had, and actually, I wasn’t even looking straight; I was looking right to see if I got him at the line,” stated Hahn in Victory Lane.

“It doesn’t get much better than that, and I need to thank Jack [Dover] for racing us so clean. He had every opportunity to lean on us a little bit, but that’s what good racing is. To be able to race that hard and never touch.”

Hahn’s 21st career win with the American Sprint Car Series presented by RacinDirt.com, Boone County Raceway is the 14th track that Hahn has earned a win at, and second in the state of Nebraska.

Taking off third in the DriveWFX.com No. 52, the opening laps were commanded by Matt Covington, who led the opening revolution, then Jack Dover, who took over the point on Lap 2 when the field came back to green after a spin by Tim Estenson off the second turn.

Hahn to second on Lap 4 with an inside, out move on Covington, the chase for the lead was on as traffic came into view. Working the cushion at both ends of the three-eighths-mile oval, the pair went three wide in traffic working Lap 8 with Dover holding the point by 0.009-seconds. Hahn to the top in the first and second turns, Dover stuck low, leaving the top open into turn three. Across the track to take the line, three wide again for a moment, Hahn had just enough room to turn under the No. 53 and take the lead.

A scare racing by slower cars on Lap 11 when Hahn went to squeeze between the lapped car and the wall, the No. 52 found right side tires and went air born. Able to keep the car upright and rolling, the leaders got a reprieve from traffic with a caution on Lap 14 for Joey Danley who stopped at the bottom of the second turn.

Blake was able to begin pacing away for a moment on the restart, but the final ten laps again brought the back of the pack into play. Starting to inch up on Hahn, the No. 53 closed for a shot on Lap 23. Sliding Hahn in one and two, Blake was able to work back around to hold the lead.

To the white flag, and Hahn nearly slipped the cushion in turns three and four. Giving Dover one last shot, the No. 53 rolled a diamond off the second turn. Shooting under Blake into three and four, the slide job from Dover was met with a crossover and drag race to the line with Hahn able to secure the top of the podium.

Jack Dover in second was followed by Jason Martin from eighth. Following from ninth, Missouri’s Garrett Williamson wheeled to fourth with Don Droud, Jr. earning the KSE Hard Charger of the Race with a run from 12th to fifth. Matt Covington ended up sixth, with Howard Moore, Zach Blurton, Joey Danley, Kyler Johnson, and Chris Martin completing the top ten.

Friday’s show at Boone County Raceway welcomed a field of 24 drivers. The Driver’s Project Qualifying saw a new track record set by Jake Bubak at 13.575-seconds. AR Dyno Specialty Heat Races were won by Chris Martin, Jordon Mallett, and Jason Martin.

The next event for the American Sprint Car Series presented by RacinDirt.com is WaKeeney Speedway on Saturday, July 1. The $5,000 to win, $500 to start opens at 5:00 P.M., with racing at 7:47 P.M.
