Dennis Erb, Jr. Pockets $10,000 in Spoon River Stop; Ready for Buckeye State Two-Step!
(CARPENTERSVILLE, ILLINOIS) Dennis Erb Racing was busy on the UMP DIRTcar Summer Nationals grind from June 21-25, as they planned to enter five shows in the states of Illinois and Iowa. With the event at Farley Speedway in Farley, Iowa succumbing to Mother Nature, Dennis Erb, Jr. officially entered four “Hell Tour†programs last week and walked away with a victory and one additional Top Ten effort during the hectic stretch of racing.
On Thursday, June 23, Dennis racked up his third feature triumph of 2016 at Spoon River Speedway in Banner, Illinois! Dennis posted the second quickest lap in Group A during qualifying and later scored the win in his heat race. After drawing the pole position prior to the drop of the green flag in the 50-lap main event, the Carpentersville, Illinois ace led each and every circuit of the "Hell Tour" stop en route to bagging $10,000 worth of loot over Billy Moyer, Bobby Pierce, Mike Marlar, and Kevin Weaver!
His other Top Ten run of the week came in the opener on Tuesday, June 21 at Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Illinois. Dennis knocked down the fourth fastest circuit in his group during qualifying prior to running second in his heat race. After starting the 40-lap feature from the inside of the third row, Dennis slipped back a few spots during the $5,000 to win race and eventually wound up seventh at the checkers. You can read a race-by-race recap from his week on the UMP Summer Nationals trail by logging onto www.denniserb.com.
The #28 team will now set their sights on a pair of Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series battles in the Buckeye State of Ohio on July 2-3. Both Portsmouth Raceway Park in Portsmouth, Ohio and Muskingum County Speedway in Zanesville, Ohio will play host to single day programs this weekend – each of which will boast a $12,000 winner’s check. Dennis comes into the doubleheader seventh in the latest version of the LOLMDS point standings. Additional information concerning both races can be obtained by clicking on www.lucasdirt.com.
