Bryan Hulbert – WEST PLAINS, Mo. (June 13, 2020) – After a little bit of a snafu Friday night, Matt Covington was running on all eight cylinders Saturday as the driver of the A-Rock Materials/Lucas Oil No. 95 captured his second ASCS sanctioned victory of the season.
Topping the match-up between the Racinboys.com ASCS Warrior Region presented by Impact Signs, Awnings, and Wraps and the ASCS Mid-South Region at Legit Speedway Park, Covington’s victory marks the first time he’s topped the podium with the Warrior Region, and the second with the Mid-South Region.
Leading all 25 revolutions, the A-Feature went non-stop with Covington stretching his advantage to 3.450 seconds over fellow Glenpool, Okla. driver, Brandon Anderson. Overcoming truck issues to make the trip, Ernie Ainsworth captured the final podium step with Ayrton Gennetten and Chase Randall, making up the top five.
Miles Paulus moved from ninth to sixth with Iowa’s Riley Goodno seventh. Austin O’Neal, Dustin Barks, and Brad Bowden completed the top ten.
The next event for the Racinboys.com ASCS Warrior Region presented by Impact Signs, Awnings, and Wraps is slated for Saturday, July 4, at Lake Ozark Speedway. The ASCS Mid-South Region goes green again Friday, June 26, at Centerville Super Speedway in Dardanelle, Ark.
