Austin Hubbard Claims Second Victory of 2013; Firecracker 100 Next

Seaford, Delaware (06/27/13) - Austin Hubbard enjoyed a great weekend in his #11 Trinity Logistics/Hubbard Motorsports/Mastersbilt by Huey/Cornett Racing Engine Super Late Model as he competed in Maryland and Delaware, and by the time the action was complete he had claimed his second win of the 2013 campaign.

On Friday night he traveled to Hagerstown Speedway (Hagerstown, Maryland) for a $3,000-to-win, unsanctioned event, which drew a field of twenty-eight Super Late Models to the historic, 1/2 mile oval. In the feature Austin battled in the top five throughout the event, and actually took the lead from Jamie Lathroum on lap 25 before settling into a fourth place finish behind race winner, Lathroum, Gregg Satterlee, and Jeremy Miller.

Full results from the event are available at www.HagerstownSpeedway.com .

Saturday night took Austin to his home track, Delaware International Speedway (Delmar, Delaware) for the Fall Nationals Qualifier. Hubbard would score his second win of the year by the time the night was over, but it was far from easy for the 21-year-old driver. He started the night by winning his heat race from the last starting spot to earn the apparent pole for the feature, but with the top ten cars inverted for feature action he started tenth alongside Ricky Elliott, who was riding a seven race winning streak into the event. Hubbard wasted little time working his way forward as he was up to the third spot by lap 3 as he worked the cushion. One lap later he bolted to the top spot and never looked back on his way to the victory, which came over Donald Lingo Jr., David Hill, David Pettyjohn, and Lou Johnson.

This weekend, June 27th-29th, Hubbard will participate in the 7th Annual Firecracker 100 at Lernerville Speedway (Sarver, Pennsylvania), which will be sanctioned by the World of Outlaws (WoO) Super Late Models. The big money weekend starts with complete shows on Thursday and Friday that will be headlined by $6,000-to-win features, and on Saturday night a $30,000-to-win finale will be held. For those not able to attend you can watch all of the action live via pay-per-view at www.DirtOnDirt.com . The Hubbard Motorsports souvenir trailer will also be on hand this weekend with the latest apparel and die-cast cars available. For more information on the event, please visit www.WoOLMS.com .
