26th Annual 360 Nationals August 4-6 2016
Jamie Ball Leads It All to Win Night One of the 360 Knoxville
Nationals KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 4, 2016) For the third time in his career at the Knoxville Raceway, Jamie Ball wheeled his J.J. Kane Auctioneers No. 5J around the Marion County half-mile perfectly for 20 laps for victory on night one of the 26th annual Arnold Motor Supply ASCS 360 Knoxville Nationals presented by Great Southern Bank. Timing in 13th, Ball was able to run to the final transfer in the third Heat Race, setting Jamie on the pole of Thursday's preliminary A-Feature. "I'd rather be lucky that good any day," chuckled Jamie when asked about his night and the way everything shook out. "Our qualifying numbers lacked a little bit because of a bad draw, but these guys are the best here. I'd put them up against anyone. We are so prepared, you know, you win races in the shop and our hours of hard work show it, and I know our wives can attest that we've put a lot of work into this." Ball's first Preliminary Night victory in the $15,000 to win Arnold Motor Supply 360 Knoxville Nationals presented by Great Southern Bank, the win is also the Iowa native's first with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network, making Jamie the 134th different winner in National Tour competition. Outdueling Bryan Clauson twice on the start following a red for Kade Higday, the No. 5J was challenged the first couple before starting to pull away only to see a caution on the third round as Nate Van Haaften slowed off the fourth turn. With Clauson in tow on the restart, Ball built his advantage quickly as Clauson worked to hold off the No. 17x of Josh Baughman, who eventually worked to the runner-up spot on Lap 5. Stalking Jamie Ball as the pair approached slower traffic, the gap closed very little as the No. 5J weaved through the back-markers. Shuffling the remainder of the top-five as the race worked past the half-way point, the race on the track brewed for second as Sammy Swindell wheeled the Acme Graphix No. 3s around Baughman on the sixteenth lap. Closing slightly on Jamie, laps would run out as the No. 5j crossed 1.533 seconds ahead of Sammy Swindell. Josh Baughman held on for third with Terry McCarl grabbing the fourth spot. Having to advance out of the B-Feature, Danny Lasoski rocketed from 21st to complete the top-five in the Parker Burch Motorsports No. 1m. Ian Madsen from ninth came to sixth with Tony Shilling seventh. After contending for the lead early, Bryan Clauson slipped to an eighth place run with Justin Henderson and Ryan Giles making up the top-ten. In terms of points following Thursday's opener, Justin Henderson sits atop the points with 481. Sammy Swindell and Tony Shilling sit at 480 each with the nod going to Swindell had a better finish in the A main. Josh Baughman in fourth in standings with 479 points followed by Danny Lasoski with 476 to complete the top-five.

Jamie
Veal Breaks Through on Night Two of the 360
Nationals! by Bryan Hulbert and Bill Wright
KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 5, 2016) He
may have lead start to finish, but it was a thriller of an A-Feature at
the Knoxville Raceway as Australia’s Jamie Veal found Victory Lane for the
first time in his career at the famed half-mile; winning night two of the
26th annual Arnold Motor Supply 360 Knoxville Nationals
presented by Great Southern Bank. Veal’s first Knoxville Raceway
victory also goes down as his first with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car
Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network, making Jamie the
135th overall winner in Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour
competition, and 13th on the season. “All those starts helped me heaps. I
got the jump there three or four times but I got a bit nervous those last
few go-rounds with [Brian] Brown picking up a few, and [Clint] Garner
picking up a few there, so it didn’t leave much buffer,” said Jamie on his
victory at the famed half-mile. “Their experience around here is second to
none, but I can’t thank this Indy Race Parts team enough to give me to me
the opportunity to race here.” Asked about his progression through the
season at the Knoxville Raceway, Veal commented, “We’ve had a good car
here the past three or four times here, and it’s good to finally get a win
at Knoxville, especially during the 360 Nationals, so we’ll just go from
here.” Three times to get the race rolling, Veal
was able to get the jump all three times over the GoMuddy.com No 1H of
Dale Blaney. Moving away from the field, Veal built a comfortable two
second advantage before the caution flew on Lap 12 for Matt Moro. Prior to
the caution, the race on the track was for fourth as Brian Brown, Davey
Heskin, and Clint Garner attached the position. Taking over the show position on the restart
from Brooke Tatnell, the Casey’s General Store/FVP No. 21 of Brian Brown
set sights on Dale Blaney for second. Diving low into the third turn,
Brown broke loose from the bottom, sliding Nerf bar to left rear on
Blaney, with both somehow able to roll away. Caution with 13 laps complete, the cast of
challengers continued their march to the front as the Midwest Excavating
No. 40 of Clint Garner set sights on Brown for the runner-up spot.
With everyone still chasing Jamie Veal, the
bottom side worked to Garner’s favor as the night’s quick timer rolled to
second on the final lap. Running down Jamie Veal into the final two turns,
the driver of the Indy Race Parts No. 71 would not be denied; crossing
0.435 seconds ahead of the current Knoxville Raceway 360 points’ leader.
Brian Brown crossed third after starting
fifth with Dusty Zomer coming home fourth. After challenging for the lead
early, Dale Blaney slipped back to complete the top-five. Brooke Tatnell
finished sixth with Jack Dover coming from 14th to seventh.
Hard Charging from 20th, Johnny Herrera advanced to finish
eighth with Davey Heskin winding up ninth. Tasker Phillips from
21st completed the top-ten. Quick time went to Clint Garner on Friday
night with a time of 16.017 seconds. Five Heat races were topped by Don
Droud, Jr., Calvin Landis, Rager Phillips, Dale Blaney, and Jamie Veal.
C-Feature honors went to John Schulz. The night’s B-Main was topped by
Tasker Phillips. The Friday night program saw 52 drivers
checking in, bringing this year’s total to 93 competitors. With points
tallied through the two preliminary nights, Clint Garner, with 492 points,
has earned the pole in Saturday’s $15,000 to win feature event. He will
share the front row with fellow South Dakota driver, Justin Henderson, who
tallied 481 markers. The finale of the 26th annual
Arnold Motor Supply 360 Knoxville Nationals presented by Great Southern
Bank takes place on Saturday, August 6 with Hot Laps getting underway at
6:45 P.M. (CDT). For continued updates on the Knoxville Raceway, log onto

Sammy Swindell Winst the
26th Annual Knoxville 360
Nationals! by Bryan Hulbert and Bill
Wright
KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 6, 2016) -
For the second time in Knoxville Raceway history, a driver has added the
360cid and 410cid Nationals Championship to their Trophy Case as Sammy
Swindell parked the A.G. Rains / Acme Graphix No. 3s in Victory Lane to
claim the $15,000 top prize in the 26th annual Arnold Motor
Supply ASCS 360 Knoxville Nationals presented by Great Southern Bank.
Joining Danny Lasoski as the only other
driver to win both crown jewel events at the Marion County oval, Swindell
is the fourteenth different winner of the 360 Nationals since 1991. The
win is also the first as a car owner for West Memphis, Arkansas native,
A.G. Rains. “Praise the Lord, I’ve just been so
blessed here lately with things going a lot of different directions,” said
Sammy in Victory Lane after his fifth career 360 win at Knoxville.
“I’m still out here doing this, getting to do what I love to do driving
these cars and they gave me a perfect car tonight. All the things we did
yesterday, they were all right. We hit it on the head and I couldn’t ask
for anything any better.” “When I was on the bottom there, I
thought I was okay there. Then Clint [Garner] got around, and I just
had to wait for my turn to get a shot and see where he was good at, and
where he wasn’t to make my move; but the car just got better and better
throughout the race.” Taking off from the front row, Swindell
took off into the race lead with Clint Garner, quickly taking over the
point on the second lap. Stalked by the Acme Graphix No. 3s, the pair
rolled top and bottom on the Knoxville Raceway with Swindell finally able
to reclaim the lead on Lap nine. The wily veteran began distancing himself
from the current Knoxville 360cid point’s leader as the race through the
top-five heated up, with Lasoski up to third and closing. Taking over the
runner-up spot on the 13th trip around the half-mile, the 1995
winner of the 360cid Nationals came to Swindell’s back bumper as the
caution flew on Lap 16 for Josh Baughman whose engine expired.
On the restart, the mover was Brian
Brown. After fading to ninth early on, the FVP/Casey’s General Store No.
21 was back up to fourth. Stealing away third on Lap 20, the pass for the
runner-up spot on Lap 22 would be Brown’s last pass of the night as the
engine let go under the bonnet of the No. 21. That nearly wadded up
Lasoski who barely got the Mark Burch No. 1m turned down the track.
Setting up a three lap dash to the
finish, Lasoski got close but was never close enough as Swindell finished
1.078 seconds ahead of “The Dude”. Challenged by Dusty Zomer on the final
restart, Clint Garner rebounded to hold onto third with Terry McCarl
coming from eighth to fourth. Ian Madsen from 14th came up to
complete the top-five in the last corner. Challenging for the third spot on the
restart, Dusty Zomer faded to sixth with Jack Dover advancing twelve spots
as the night’s Hard Charger. Friday’s preliminary A-Feature winner, Jamie
Veal crossed eighth, with Brooke Tatnell and Tony Shilling making up the
top ten. Saturday night began with E-Feature
competition. Colby Copeland grabbing that win. The night’s D-Feature
was topped by Billy Butler after race winner, Tim Shaffer, was
disqualified for the Wickerbill being too tall on the No. 49x. Sam
Hafertepe, Jr. was the winner in the C-Feature. In the first three feature
events, Colby Copeland and Logan Forler were able to advance from the E to
the C. Forler was a DNF in the C, with Copeland finishing 15th.
Jack Dover was able to grab the B-Feature. Devin Kline Cops $800 with Ninth
Career 305 Win! Devin Kline put his name on top of the
career 305 sprint car winners’ list at the Knoxville Raceway on Saturday
night. The Knoxville, Iowa driver wrestled the lead away from
Christian Bowman on lap two, and was never seriously challenged in the
15-lap event. The win aboard the White Lightning Motorsports #5J was
worth $800, thanks to $400 in bonuses from Pace Performance
Parts. The event was plagued by several
cautions. Christopher Scank spun while running fifth on lap six,
then suffered a left rear tire flat and got sideways two laps later.
Cody Ambers could not avoid contacting him. Brandon Worthington spun
to bring a yellow on lap eleven and a circuit later, Mike Mayberry spun,
collecting Mitchell Alexander. No one was
injured. Bowman maintained second behind Kline at
the line, while McKenna Haase worked her way up from row four to finish
third, followed by Corey Kautz and Chris Walraven. Chase Wanner,
hard-charger Tyler Thompson, Matthew Stelzer, Jeff Wilke and Brad Comegys
rounded out the top ten. Kline set quick time, while Mayberry and
Wilke notched heat wins. “We were really good on the long runs,
but on that last restart, I tried to give it away and missed the bottom,”
said Kline in Victory Lane. “Nonetheless, we came away with a win,
and I have to thank Pace Performance for the bonus money. That’s
going to go a long way. Don Blackshear and those guys make a great
engine package, and we utilized it tonight. (Starting on the pole)
feels like the whole world is on your shoulders. You’ve got nowhere
to go but back. Fortunately, we just looked ahead and got the
win.” Join us
