\"2016news_7-16\"WHEATLAND, MO (July 16, 2016) Jared Landers won his second Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series event of the season on Saturday Night at Lucas Oil Speedway, the site of his first win back in May. Landers was the third different leader of the race. He took the lead on lap 13 and then held off a furious three-lap challenge from several drivers at the end of the race to take the win in the CMH Diamond Nationals. The event was co-sanctioned by the Lucas Oil Midwest Latemodel Racing Association.<\/p>\n

After winning the Show-Me 100 at Lucas Oil Speedway back on Memorial Day Weekend, Jimmy Owens captured another podium finish, ending as the night\u2019s runner-up. Jonathan Davenport came from seventh to finish third. Tim McCreadie was fourth, and Scott Bloomquist came home in fifth.<\/p>\n

Just over 24 hours earlier, Jared Landers had gone end over end in a series of flips at Tri-City Speedway during Time Trials. \u201cScott [Bloomquist] builds an awesome race car, after what happened last night when I flipped, our team brought out the back-up car and had a Top-Ten finish last night. Our team is extremely thankful to back that up here tonight and with this win.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought to myself, just be patient. Stick to the line, and don\u2019t try too hard. I stuck the right rear in one of those holes, and I figured if I needed to just slow down and set a good pace. I am usually the guy trying to blast to the lead. We have had some good runs and had a good chance to win the Show-Me back in May. My crew, Jason, and Jake have put together a great car that can run in the rough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Landers\u2019 Sweet-Bloomquist, Andy Durham Racing Engines-powered entry is sponsored by Crop Production Services, Mark Martin Automotive, ASC Warranty, Bad Boy Mowers, and Penske Shocks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Owens owns several wins at LOS and was happy with his second place finish. \u201cWe had a really good hot rod tonight. Our hats are off to Jared [Landers] and his crew, they did a great job tonight. Coming back to win tonight after what happened to him last night says a lot about them [the Landers Team]. Keeping this E3 Spark Plugs, Cheap Cars, Barry Wright Race Car up front is thanks to my crew. We had a great car tonight, but we came up just a little bit short.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davenport earned his first podium finish since May by claiming the third spot. \u201cThere was probably a little bit of attrition that helped us out tonight. We never gave up; we are still quite a bit off on the car. We are missing something somewhere. It\u2019s been a while since we\u2019ve had a top three finish. Everybody goes through a slump. Kevin [Rumley] and I will put our heads together. We are getting a little better. We have got to build back up. We are now looking forward to I-80 next weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n

Completing the top ten were Brandon Sheppard, Tyler Erb, Earl Pearson Jr., Jake O\u2019Neil, and Jesse Stovall.<\/p>\n

In preliminary action, Robert Baker set the overall Miller Welders Fast Time (Group A) amongst the 41 entrants, with a lap of 15.300 seconds. Clay Daly set the fastest time in Group B with a time of 15.514 seconds. Brandon Sheppard, Tim McCreadie, Jared Landers and Jimmy Owens won their respective heat races. Dave Eckrich and Brandon Overton won their respective B-Mains.<\/p>\n
