Tankersley Aiming for Continued ASCS Gulf South Success During Opener This Weekend

Inside Line Promotions – HIGHLANDS, Texas (March 24, 2015) – Patience is certainly a virtue for Channin Tankersley, whose season opener has been delayed each of the past two weekends because of weather.

“We’ve had a little more time to go through everything so that was a bright spot,” he said. “The weather is looking a little better this weekend so hopefully it will stay dry and we can race.”

Tankersley’s defense of his ASCS Gulf South Region championship will start this weekend – weather permitting. He will race at Golden Triangle Raceway Park in Beaumont, Texas, on Friday and at Battleground Speedway in Highlands, Texas, on Saturday.

Tankersley has earned success at both tracks in recent years, including a string of eight straight top 10s at Golden Triangle Raceway Park.

“That’s a tight bullring where you will always be around other cars,” he said. “Whether you are leading the race or battling in the middle of the pack, you’re always going to have cars around you. That makes it exciting as a driver because you know you have to be up on the wheel from the green flag until the checkered flag.”

Tankersley has been to Victory Lane at Battleground Speedway during each of the last two seasons.

“Battleground is a bigger track that takes speed, good decisions and a little luck to win at,” he said. “Hopefully we can have a smooth night there as well as at Golden Triangle to start the season on the right foot.”
