KNOXVILLE, Iowa (July 22, 2024) – It was a big money potential at the World’s Greatest Dirt Track for Cory Eliason and Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR), and although the team was shy of qualifying for the $175,000-to-win Kings Royal on Saturday, July 20, they had plenty of shining moments, all of which highlighted with a ten-spot rally in High Limit Racing’s Joker’s Jackpot on Thursday, July 18.
Eliason, ace of Brian and Lisa Ridge’s Commercial Edge, NDT New Direction Transport LLC, Ridge Development, North Ridge Development, Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, B And L Holdings, No. 8 sprint car, finished 13th in his ten-spot effort, qualifying for the $100,000-to-win main event with a third-place finish in the evening’s B-Main.
In addition, Eliason and RSR finished tenth in the second of two High Limit Racing Double Down Duels on Wednesday, July 16, climbing ahead from the inside of row eight.
A quick turnaround, Eliason and RSR will continue their full-time High Limit Racing campaign with Lernerville Speedway’s Don Martin Memorial Silver Cup on Tuesday, July 23. The Western Pennsylvania staple will award a $25,000 top prize.
“We wanted more out of our week at Eldora, but to put up a big rally in the Joker’s Jackpot is pretty special,” Eliason explained. “Hats off to this entire team. There’s a lot of pressure leading into a week like that, but they hung tough and kept delivering. We’re due for a win and I owe them one. Excited to get to Lernerville and compete for another $25,000.”
