Leinen Takes Two

February 23, 2014 Lowell Jewell Leave a comment

Mitch Leinen has once again swept the night at BRL!

The OnPitRoad.com Crooked Still Legends Series kicked off the night at Daytona. Daytona? Yes. The “short road course” configuration. And did it ever seem long… Leinen started on pole and led all of the 30 laps while the rest of us went sight seeing in different areas of the speedway! Christopher Hensley and Dylan Roe finished 2nd and 3rd. The Championship point standings have tightened up this week; Lowell Jewell still holds the top spot but is now tied with Brian Young. Two points back in 3rd is Leinen. Next week the series visits Bristol Motor Speedway, where it’s harder to get lost….

The Whiskey Run Street Stock Series was back to full throttle at South Boston Speedway this week. The finishing order from Concord was inverted to set the grid and Ricky Brinkman started on pole. Five lead changes among 3 drivers and 3 cautions later, Leinen takes the win. Brian Neff and Ricky Brinkman finished 2nd and 3rd. Fifteen points separate the top 4 in the Championship Standings. Lowell Jewell remains in the lead followed by Keith Haney and Brad Spidle. The series heads to Richmond International Raceway next weekend!

Oh, and there was a test race earlier in the evening for the upcoming Mountain Dew National Series. Care to guess who won? Yep, Mitch Leinen…. 🙂

Roe Dominates Double-Header

February 16, 2014 Lowell Jewell Leave a comment

Nineteen racers took the grid at Iowa Speedway for BRL’s first ever double-header. Race 1 was caution free for 30 laps of good, hard racing. Dylan Roe took the pole and led all 30 laps. His win comes in his first race in the series.

The finishing order was inverted to set the grid for race 2. Roe started 19th. Even more great racing in this one with only 2 cautions. Keith Haney and Mitch Leinen started on the front row after having technical problems in race 1. Leinen got a great start and took the point, leading 25 of the 30 laps. Roe worked his way through the field and took the lead from Leinen with 5 to go.

The last 5 laps were some of the most exciting racing this series has seen! When it was all over, Dylan Roe grabbed his 2nd win in his 2nd start in the OnPitRoad.com Crooked Still Legends Series.

Brian Young takes over the championship ponts lead with Lowell Jewell holding onto 2nd. Leinen moves into 3rd while Matt Hoose, who unfortunately has had to retire from the series, falls to 7th place. The series visits its final road course next week; Daytona International Speedway’s Short configuration.
