Black Diamond Racecars and Earl Pearson Jr. Claim First Team Win
Team Looks Ahead to Bad Boy 98
Shreveport, Louisiana (03/26/18) – Earl Pearson Jr. and the Black Diamond Racecars house car program have had a fast start to the new season. The combo kicked things up a notch on Friday night when Earl Pearson Jr. piloted the Black Diamond Racecar #1 Lucas Oil Products/ Clements Racing Engine Super Late Model to the $12,000 win with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series at Boyd’s Speedway.
Pearson took over the lead on the final lap on his way to the triumph. The big victory marked the first for the new team.
“It means a lot to give Ronnie and Terri Stuckey their first win as a car owner,†Pearson Jr. said. “Everybody has been working so hard, and to be able to stand in Victory Lane with the team around me was really something special. To get the win in such thrilling fashion was just the icing on the cake. Hopefully it’s the first of many wins that we get this year.â€
After losing Thursday’s opener at Volunteer Speedway (Bulls Gap, Tennessee), Earl Pearson Jr. was one of 44 Super Late Models on hand at Boyd’s Speedway (Ringgold, Georgia) on Friday evening for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) sanctioned Shamrock.
Losing one spot in his heat race, Pearson posted a runner-up finish behind Don O’Neal, positioning the Florida driver sixth on the starting grid for the opening night feature.
Making his way to the front in the final 10 circuits, Earl overtook Chris Madden for 2nd on lap-47 and had his eyes set on race-leader Scott Bloomquist in the final three laps. Passing Bloomquist on the final lap, Earl Pearson Jr. streaked to his first win of the season and a $12,000 payday.
The win marked his second straight victory in The Shamrock at the famed 1/3-mile located on the border of Tennessee and Georgia. Bloomquist, Chris Madden, Brandon Overton, and Hudson O’Neal completed the Top-5 finishers in the 50-lap affair.
On Saturday night action shifted to East Alabama Motor Speedway (Phenix City, Alabama) for the Bama Bash. Earl secured his spot into the $12,000-to-win A-Main with a third-place finish in his heat race. Starting the feature in ninth, Pearson Jr. dropped one spot in the 50-lap affair to place 10th.
Earl sits third in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) point standings. For full results from the weekend’s events as well as the latest series standings, please visit www.LucasDirt.com .
