Jason Hughes Races to Top-5 Finish in Modified Masters
Clash at the Creek X on Deck this Week
Westville, Oklahoma (6/20/18) – Jason Hughes advanced seventeen spots on Saturday night to notch a fifth-place finish in the second annual Modified Masters in his Henryetta Ford #12 Murphrey Oil Company/ Red Tail Tackle/ Hughes Chassis/ Mullins Racing Engine Modified.
“We dug ourselves a bit of a hole to start the weekend, but in the feature our car came to life and we came away with a solid finish,†Hughes said. “We haven’t raced as much as a lot of these guys have this year, so we’re still getting a few things lined out, but overall I’m really happy with where our team is at right now. We’ll head to 141 Speedway this week and try to pick up the big check.â€
Jason Hughes was one of 58 Open Wheel Modifieds signed in at Cedar Lake Speedway (New Richmond, Wisconsin) on Thursday evening to kick off the second annual Modified Masters weekend.
Jumping one spot in his 8-lap heat race, Hughes recorded a runner-up finish behind A.J. Diemel, which locked him into the 11th-starting position for the opening night, preliminary feature. He would go on to register a 15th-place finish.
On Friday evening for two rounds of heat races, Hughes jumped up one spot in his first heat to log an eight-place finish. Maintaining his spot in his second heat, Jason recorded a fifth-place finish.

Advancing four spots in his B-Main, Hughes locked his spot into the $40,000-to-win A-Main with a 10th-place finish.
