Bryan Hulbert – Mesquite, TX (March 20, 2012) – With four rounds of competition in the books the 2012 season for the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by MavTv turns to the “Lone Star State” for a pair of nights at the famed Devil’s Bowl Speedway.
Having hosted the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by MavTv since 1994 the Devils Bowl Speedway has seen action 67 times. The 2011 event saw Jason Johnson take the preliminary night victory while Sam Hafertepe Jr. took the finale. Gary Wright leads the way in all time wins at the Devil’s Bowl with the Lucas Oil ASCS presented by MavTv having visited victory lane 20 times.
Hosting rounds five and six of the 2012 Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour, the most unique half-mile clay oval in the world will see action on Friday March 23rd and Saturday March 24th with the 39th annual Spring Nationals.
Leading the charge into Mesquite, Texas is Jason Johnson. Showing the way by 31 markers, “The Ragin Cajun” stated the 2012 season off having to overcome engine problems that forced Johnson into a B-Feature. Even so, the AccuDoc/Roush Yates 41 has not finished outside the top 10 in the first four nights of competition with three of those nights in the top 5 to go along with a single win at the Copper Classic.
