2.23.17 ASCS Southern Outlaw Sprints Results

TAMPA, Fla. (February 23, 2017) The 2017 edition of the King of the 360’s and Ronald Laney Memorial saw a familiar face in Victory Lane as Pennsylvania’s Mark Smith rocketed to victory aboard the Mach 1 Chassis No. M1 with the Lucas Oil ASCS Southern Outlaw Sprints at Tampa’s East Bay Raceway Park.

Giving chase from the sixth starting spot, Smith would have to ride as it was the Shoptheboss.com No. 29 of Travis Rilat who led the opening rounds. Working to traffic with eight laps to run, Smith had found his way into the runner-up spot with Rilat in sight. Closing the gap within the lap, the following round ended with a new race leader.

Picking through slower traffic with ease, Smith was never far from Rilat as the pair weaved in and out of lapped traffic. Working back to the rear bumper of the No. M1 with 18 laps complete, Travis set up for the strike only to have the caution take away the opportunity.
Taking off the for the final time, Rilat tired the top, but would see his run fall short as eighth starting, Terry McCarl, brought his No. 24 machine to the runner-up spot. On a breakaway with Smith, the defending race winner would have to settle for silver as Smith claimed the gold. Rilat would end up third with Jason Sides fourth. Ohio’s Phil Gressman crossed fifth.

Ohio’s Danny Smith came from 11th to sixth with Rico Abreu in tow. Danny Martin, Jr. grabbed eighth with Chad Kemenah ninth. From a B-Main, Greg Hodnett clawed from 20th to round out the top-ten.
