Sammy Swindell Wires ASCS Mid-South At Riverside International Speedway

Bryan Hulbert - WEST MEMPHIS, Ark. (July 21, 2018) Returning to the famed Riverside International Speedway on Saturday night, local racing legend Sammy Swindell led start to finish for the night's $2,000 prize with the ASCS Mid-South Region.

Wheeling the A.G. Rains owned No. 3 to Victory Lane, Swindell's win is his third overall with the ASCS Mid-South Region and fifth triumph on the season.

With as much as a straightaway on the field at times, a caution working the white flag lap still wasn't enough to give anyone a shot at the wily veteran.

Moving to second on Lap 11, Howard Moore would hold onto the silver position despite the repeated attempts by Derek Hagar who would have the settle for the bronze. Dale Howard in fourth was trailed by Ernie Ainsworth to round out the top-five. Ainsworth was also the night's Stealth Recovery Hard Charger.

Tim Crawley grabbed sixth with Justin Webb in seventh. Brandon Hinkle, Kevin Hinkle, and Rick Kahler made the top-ten.

A couple notes from the night, all driver draw fees were paid by Justin Webb and Southern Coatings. Giving back to the community, Ronnie Pitts Motorsports and Tim Crawley originally planned to raffle off two Backpacks with School Supplies at Saturday's race. With support from across the country, a total of 65 Backpacks were given away at Riverside.

The next event for the ASCS Mid-South Region is Saturday, July 28 with the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Red River Region presented by Smiley's Racing Products at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Ark.
