Bryan Hulbert – ALGER, Wash. (June 21, 2019) A huge turnaround from the opening night of the 48th annual Jim Raper Memorial Dirt Cup presented by the Skagit Casino/Resort, Roger Crockett ended his winless drought with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network.
“Everyone says the highest of highs, the lowest of lows in this sport, it’s just not too often they come back to back, but we’ve worked really hard the last few races and found some issues with the car. Finally had to change and engine, and here we are in Victory Lane. This is where we belong, I feel like. We had a phenomenal car tonight,” commented Crockett whose last win came 48 races ago on March 16, 2018 at the Devil’s Bowl Speedway.
Giving chase from the fifth starting spot the first 13 laps, it was Scott Bogucki who led the way with Tanner Holmes in tow. Finding traffic on Lap 7, Bogucki had to make a couple skip moves around the slower cars to keep the No. 18t at bay. Still keeping some breathing room, the red flag flew on Lap 10 as Garen Linder and Blake Hahn came together battling for 10th, sending the No. 22L flipping half the distance of the back straightaway. Both drivers were okay, with Hahn able to restart at the tail after a visit to the work area.
Taking back off with the lead, Bogucki railed the cushion of the Skagit Speedway. Running hard off the second turn with 13 laps complete, the cushion bit, turning the Sawblade.com No. 28 hard into the wall before sailing Bogucki end over end with Holmes darting down the track into the inside guardrail trying to avoid the No. 28. Both drivers were okay but unable to continue.
Handing the lead by Robbie Price, the No. 21p took the green with Crockett quickly diving to his inside as the pair hit the first turn. Wheel to wheel, it was Price who led Lap 14, but would not be able to hold off the charge of Crockett who grabbed the lead down the backstretch the following lap.
Keeping pace with Crockett, the pair began working toward back-markers before the caution lights displayed on Lap 23 for Brock Lemley who spun battling for fifth. Looking for room to regain the lead, the caution put the stop on Price’s run to the lead with Crockett again able to hold off the No. 21p in the race’s final two-lap dash.
Having to contend with Colton Heath on the final restart, the seventh starting No. 33 worked into second on the closing lap, relegating Robbie Price to a third-place finish. Matt Covington in fourth was trailed by John Carney II who worked through the field from 10th to complete the top five.
Jason Solwold grabbed sixth with Sam Hafertepe, Jr. making a rebound run from 15th to seventh. Devon Borden from 16th grabbed eighth. From the 15th in the night’s second B-Feature to third, California’s Justin Sanders was the night’s Hard Charger; coming from 21st to ninth in the Rutz Racing No. 8r. Defending Dirt Cup Champion, Seth Bergman, completed the top ten.
With two nights of racing in the books, the stage is set for Saturday’s championship event with Oklahoma dominating the front row as Matt Covington earns the Dick Wilskey Pole Award with Blake Hahn starting to his outside in Saturday’s $15,000 to win, 40 lap A-Feature. Looking for his second Dirt Cup Championship, 2015 winner Jason Solwold will grid third with Robbie Price fourth. In his first trip to Skagit Speedway, El Paso’s John Carney II will complete the top five in Saturday’s feature lineup.
A total of 51 drivers took part in the first two nights of the 48th Jim Raper Memorial Dirt Cup presented by the Skagit Casino/Resort with 49 checking in for Friday’s event. Saturday’s championship event kicks off at 1:00 P.M. with Fan Fest and the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Auction. Spectator Gates open at 5:00 P.M. with Opening Ceremonies at 7:00 P.M. (PT).
