His $10,500 triumph in the finale of the mid-winter motorsports meet also was the second of the week for a home state driver following the win by Ivedent Lloyd Jr. of Ocala, Fla., in the DIRTcar Racing-sanctioned event on Feb. 17.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is unbelievable,\u201d said Bronson, whose win came in the just the eighth Super Late Model start of his fledgling racing career. \u201cI\u2019ve never doubted myself, but I dang sure didn\u2019t think I was gonna come here and win the race. If you would\u2019ve asked me (about winning a WoO LMS event) a couple days ago, I would\u2019ve told you that you were crazy. We had our goals set (for the DIRTcar Nationals) to try and make all of (the features).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know what to say. I\u2019m so excited I don\u2019t even know how to show it right now.\u201d<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Bronson started from the pole position but was outgunned for the lead at the initial green flag by John Blankenship of Williamson, W.Va. Bronson held strong in second, however, and rallied to grab the top spot from Blankenship on lap 17.<\/p>\n<p>Bronson then survived two caution flags, strong challenges from Blankenship and Dale McDowell of Chickamauga, Ga., and a final-corner stumble to secure the milestone score. He crossed the finish line 0.706 of a second in front of two-time WoO LMS champion and current points leader Darrell Lanigan of Union, Ky., who inherited second when McDowell retired on lap 41 due to a broken right-rear caliper but wasn\u2019t able to seriously threaten Bronson.<\/p>\n<p>Blankenship settled for a third-place finish after leading laps 1-16. Scott Bloomquist of Mooresburg, Tenn., slipped out of the top five midway through the race but came back to finish fourth and clinch the overall DIRTcar Nationals by Summit Late Model points title for the first time in his career. Don O\u2019Neal of Martinsville, Ind., completed the top five after starting 10<sup>th<\/sup>, earning his best finish of the week in his Clint Bowyer Racing mount.<\/p>\n<p>Bloomquist, 50, emerged as the DIRTcar Nationals by Summit champion after never finishing worse than sixth in the week\u2019s five A-Mains. He received a coveted gator-shaped trophy for his accomplishment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re proud to get it,\u201d Bloomquist of the unique hardware that has become a trademark of the DIRTcar Nationals by Summit. \u201cWe\u2019ve never run every race here during the week, but we decided to do it this year and I felt like we ran really good. We had a little problem with the car tonight that I don\u2019t really want to mention, but we still had a decent run and were good all week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bloomquist \u2013 nor anyone else in the talent-laden field \u2013 was able to handle Bronson. Running a Rocket car\/ProPower engine combination owned by his uncle and aunt, Wayne and Shirlene Hammond of Tampa, Fla., Bronson demonstrated ability that belied his limited experience in open-competition Late Model racing.<\/p>\n<p>When Blankenship jumped out to the early lead, Bronson didn\u2019t lose his composure. He simply took the advice of Rocket Chassis co-owner Mark Richards, who provided valuable setup assistance throughout the week, and remained patient.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMark Richards told me at the beginning of the race that Blankenship was gonna drive real hard and he told me not to race him,\u201d said Bronson. \u201cHe told me to ride as long as I could until an opportunity showed up. I tried to ride as long as I could, but when I had my opportunity (to make an outside pass for the lead on lap 17) I didn\u2019t want to follow him no more. I kind of wanted to get myself in clean air.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moments after assuming command, Bronson was taken out of lapped traffic by a lap-20 caution flag for Chub Frank of Bear Lake, Pa., who slowed in turn three. The race\u2019s only other caution flag, on lap 35 when Shane Clanton of Zebulon, Ga., slowed with a crushed nosepiece sustained when he ran into the back of York, Pa. driver Rick Eckert\u2019s car, also kept Bronson free of slower traffic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI usually hate seeing cautions, but I was actually happy to see every caution I seen because it got me back into clean air,\u201d said Bronson, who was under heavy pressure from Blankenship and McDowell when the yellow flag flew on lap 35.<\/p>\n<p>Once McDowell, who passed Blankenship for second place on the lap-35 restart, pulled off on lap 41 \u2013 just a few laps before he said he planned to step up his bid for victory \u2013 Bronson was effectively home free. His only scare was a slip rounding turn four with the checkered flag waving in front of him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI started getting tighter and tighter and kind of jumped the cushion down there, misjudged it,\u201d Bronson said of the final lap. \u201cI was kind of getting ready for a slide job (from a challenger) and actually just missed my corner. Fortunately I was able to gather it back up and hold on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bronson got back in the groove in time to register by far the biggest win of his career, which he launched a mere three years ago. He\u2019s already piled up more than 60 open-wheel Modified victories \u2013 including a DIRTcar Nationals by Summit UMP Modified triumph on Feb. 12 \u2013 and a handful of wins in spec- and crate-engine Late Model events in Florida, but none compare to this success.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just can\u2019t thank all my guys enough, especially (team owners) Wayne and Shirlene (Hammond),\u201d said Bronson, whose two previous WoO LMS A-Main starts resulted in finishes of 24<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0on Aug. 5, 2013, at Independence (Iowa) Motor Speedway and 25<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0on Thursday\u00a0night at Volusia (he failed to qualify for the 2013 USA Nationals at Wisconsin\u2019s Cedar Lake Speedway in his WoO LMS debut). \u201cIf it wasn\u2019t for them I wouldn\u2019t be driving this race car. I\u2019d be back at East Bay (Raceway Park in Gibsonton, Fla.) racing Street Stocks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With his victory, Bronson became the fourth first-time DIRTcar Nationals by Summit winner during this year\u2019s five nights of Late Model competition. He also joined Roberts to become the first back-to-back first-time winners on the WoO LMS since 2012 when Brad Neat (April 27\u00a0at North Alabama Speedway) and Bub McCool (April 28\u00a0at Tennessee\u2019s Tazewell Speedway) logged career-first victories.<\/p>\n<p>Frankie Heckenast Jr. of Orland Park, Ill., finished sixth after running as high as fourth midway through the race. Eckert, meanwhile, quietly worked his way forward from the 16<sup>th<\/sup>starting spot to place seventh; Steve Francis of Ashland, Ky., finished eighth; Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., guided the Rocket Chassis house car to a ninth-place finish after using a provisional to start 23<sup>rd<\/sup>; and Brady Smith of Solon Springs, Wis., capped his strong Florida Speedweeks with a 10<sup>th<\/sup>-place outing.<\/p>\n<p>With 35 cars entered in the evening\u2019s action, Ohlins Shocks Time Trials were split into \u2018A\u2019 and \u2018B\u2019 groups. The first half competed for starting positions in heats one and two and the second half racied against the clock to align heats three and four.<\/p>\n<p>Bloomquist turned a lap of 16.726 seconds in Group \u2018A\u2019 that was the quickest overall of the night. It was his first WoO LMS fast-time honor of 2014 and the 11<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0of his career.<\/p>\n<p>Heat winners were Bloomquist, Lanigan, McDowell and Heckenast. Lloyd and Rick \u2018Boom\u2019 Briggs of Bear Lake, Pa., captured the B-Mains.<\/p>\n<p>The WoO LMS will sit idle for one month before returning to action with a doubleheader onFri., March 28, at Lonestar Speedway in Kilgore, Texas, and Sat., March 29, at I-30 Speedway in Little Rock, Ark.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the WoO LMS, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?e=001Sjzu-rmBh7AkREXt3IPE1V92TaLZkb2os0CsOamApClzTKjd_ZgZwlKS8La2U6FmFTwAGfAN3AkzBxz3OCLpLy7yYEXN4IYLwZaeCHIT1TtDvKoKYUTCZEvJzhhsrYXj\" target=\"_blank\">www.worldofoutlaws.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Fans can also follow the WoO LMS on Twitter at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?llr=ziqiokcab&amp;e=001DJkVTHVYdIgIs_xFSxKZYWCy_5LMgrK410yCEDymUnO_nq88LumfPkvLdb90jhl8GajtTX30h83rM6VeSUiI6M9E99BDQC6MnvKQRurnr5l6VIJFznnDdYFlBCX8RSC0VPCiREQ-WJlXnav7uac6jjNcoNyn1XxUD805U_jYahY75jJZkPFu1J50zmkb7vaf82KEInwYYZ34qYtNExk-Bx3JPNEvxmhogodFXsJ7-KM=\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter.com\/WoOLateModels\u00a0<\/a>and Facebook at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?llr=ziqiokcab&amp;e=001DJkVTHVYdIgIs_xFSxKZYWCy_5LMgrK410yCEDymUnO_nq88LumfPkvLdb90jhl8ebpyl0JwnPGzTtzctYGJIBkojymr3aa4LXzchF-ULK6ZCbbTMTbYayEvdRFTquQEtfg2BJvUuR0ZfCh4h7n4c4BO9JOpKJGj-zsfqWiBH8h4_YgpVy-srMMwCsI5PQHZ-c1Fgg8ikxxb0AC84ZOn6p0S1DhArUUzNqHdXXaMxrENXgA8VmtA-w==\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook.com\/WorldofOutlaws\u00a0<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Results of World of Outlaws Late Model Series DIRTcar Nationals Presented by Summit Racing Equipment Night 2 at Volusia Speedway Park (Finishing Position\/Start\/Driver\/Laps Completed\/Money Won):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>1.
