Kyle Beard Bests CCSDS Foes at Lone-Star; Bad Boy 98 Next

Trumann, Arkansas (04/03/17) – Kyle Beard found Victory Lane for the first time in 2017 over the weekend by piloting his Gary Beard Trucking #86 Black Diamond/ Kuntz & Co. Racing Engine Super Late Model to the $3,000 win at Lone Star Speedway.

Kyle Beard returned to action on Friday evening at Timberline Speedway (Maud, Texas) as the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series (CCSDS) lifted the lid on the 2017 season. With 24 Super Late Models on hand, Beard locked his spot into the feature with a 3rd-place finish in his heat race. Starting in 7th, Beard improved three positions in the 30-lapper, registering a 4th-place finish behind Jack Sullivan, B.J. Robinson, and Zach McMillan with Tanner Kellick coming in 5th.

On Saturday the CCSDS headed to Lone Star Speedway (Kilgore, Texas) for the $3,000-to-win A-Main. Charging to an 8-lap heat race win from the pole position, Beard rolled off the grid from the pole for the feature event. Leading from flag-to-flag, Kyle Beard wheeled his way to his first victory of the season, which came over Jon Mitchell, Garrett Alberson, Zach McMillan, and Jack Sullivan.

“It was a really great weekend for our team,” said Beard. “We dug ourselves a bit of a hole to start the season in 2017, so we had a goal of hitting the ground running this year, and that’s just what we did. Hopefully we can have a strong showing this coming weekend at Batesville.”

Kyle currently sits atop the CCSDS point standings after the first weekend of action. Full results from these events are available at www.COMPDirt.com .

This weekend, April 7-8, Kyle will enter the annual Bad Boy 98 at Batesville Motor Speedway (Locust Grove, Arkansas). The $20,000-to-win event will be co-sanctioned by the COMP Cams Super Dirt Series and the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series. For more information, please visit www.BatesvilleMotorSpeedway.com .
