\"070713_LM_Haubstadt\"HAUBSTADT, Ind. \u2014 July 7, 2013 \u2014 Shannon Babb scored his fourth win of the 2013 \u201cHell Tour\u201d season in dominating fashion\u00a0Sunday\u00a0night, as he lead all 40-laps from his second starting position to capture the checkered flag at Tri-State Speedway.<\/p>\n

Babb, of Moweaqua, Ill., started from the outside of row one with teenager Bobby Pierce grabbing the pole. Babb took advantage of his starting position and pulled out to an early lead as he rode the outside line. Babb led every lap, but Pierce challenged him as the race wore on. Pierce pulled to Babb\u2019s inside multiple times but couldn\u2019t complete a pass. Babb held him off over the final two laps and pulled away to secure the $5,000 checkered flag. With the victory\u00a0Sunday\u00a0night, Shannon Babb is now only two wins shy of Billy Moyer\u2019s record of 82 Summer National career wins.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe track was excellent,\u201d said Babb, a three-time Summer Nationals champion. \u201cI just think I got the right draw \u2014 front row outside was hard to beat tonight. It worked out perfect for me. We\u2019re just happy we\u2019ve won the race. It\u2019s been getting tough. These guys \u2014 little Bobby was right there \u2014 and these guys are making me step up my program a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n
