Dennis Erb, Jr. Nabs Top Ten in Dairyland Showdown Opener; Illinois Speedweek Ahead
(CARPENTERSVILLE, ILLINOIS) The condensed 'Dairyland Showdown' took place on May 2-3 at Mississippi Thunder Speedway in Fountain City, Wisconsin. With Mother Nature taking the victory on Thursday night, a $25,000 top prize was up for grabs on Friday evening to kick off the World of Outlaws Real American Beer Late Model Series doubleheader. Dennis Erb, Jr. advanced to finish third in his heat race and later picked off four more competitors during the 50-lap feature. At the checkers, Dennis found himself a solid eighth in the final finishing order.
In Saturday's grand finale, which boasted a $30,000 paycheck, Dennis started off his night by posting the twelfth fastest time in Group B during qualifying prior to moving up to finish second in his heat race. The Carpentersville, Illinois ace then battled hard for another possible top ten showing in the 50-lapper before winding up thirteenth at the unfurling of the checkered flag. Dennis is currently tied for tenth in the latest version of the WOOLMS point standings exiting the Badger State. Complete results from Mississippi Thunder Speedway can be found online by pointing your web browser to www.woolms.com.
The Dennis Erb Racing team will look to defend their home turf this week in a hectic five day stretch dubbed as “Illinois Speedweek.” The FloRacing Night in America Series lifts the lid to their miniseries with a trio of $20,000 to win shows from May 6-8 in the Land of Lincoln. Up first will be a visit to the newly-reopened LaSalle Speedway in LaSalle, Illinois later tonight before heading to Spoon River Speedway in Banner, Illinois on Wednesday and Lincoln Speedway in Lincoln, Illinois on Thursday.
Over the May 9-10 weekend, the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series roars into Illinois to sanction a pair of marquee events to cap off “Illinois Speedweek.” The annual running of the ‘Farmer City 74’ will take place on Friday night at Farmer City Raceway in Farmer City, Illinois and a $25,000 payday will be on the line. Saturday’s annual ‘FALS Spring Shootout’ will then put an exclamation mark on the busy week, as a hefty $30,000 windfall awaits the victor at Fairbury Speedway in downtown Fairbury, Illinois. All five races this week will be broadcast LIVE to subscribers of FloRacing. More information can be found online at both www.floseries.com and www.lucasdirt.com.
