The Top Gun Sprints made their third visit of 2011 to Bubba Raceway Park on Saturday September 24, 2011. There were 17 cars at the track to give fans two heat races and a 25 lap feature race.
Danny Martin in the 24 car had the pole with Tim Grubaugh in the 42 on the outside for the start of the SHOCKDYNO heat race. On the start Danny got the lead and the win. The 02 of Gene Lasker had the pole for the BROWN & MILLER heat race, with Sport Allen in the 81 car on the outside. It was the 02 that made the better start and took the second heat win.
The 3A of A J Maddox had the pole for the start of the HOOSIER TIRE feature race event, with the 81 of Sport Allen alongside. After a parade lap, the race went to green and it was Sport Allen in the 81 car that took the lead. Then on lap 11 caution out for the 3A of A J Maddox, car would not stay in gear, also Sport Allen came to infield for broke rear end. On the restart is was the 24 of Danny Martin leading with the 02 of Gene Lasker in 2nd. Lap 20 caution came out for the 42 of Tim Grubaugh for front axle damage. On the restart it was Danny Martin out front and never looked backed and took the checkered flag, followed by Gene Lasker in the 02 car, Robbie Smith in the 6S car, Matt Kurtz in the 92 car and Mark Ruel Jr. in the 83 car rounding out the top 5.
