KNOXVILLE, Iowa (Sept. 16) — Overtaking polesitter Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill., on lap 19 of 25, seventh-starting Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va., led the remaining distance in Friday’s preliminary feature to score a $7,000 Lucas Oil Series victory duirng the second night of the Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals at Knoxville Raceway.

Charging from the third starting spot, Jimmy Owens of Newport, Tenn., pulled ahead of the front-row starters to lead the opening lap before Babb shot around the outside to take the point on the second circuit. As the Illinois driver maintained his lead in the early running, Richards began working his way toward the front of the field, moving into third by lap nine.

Using a lap-16 restart to his advantage, Richards challenged Babb and the duo crossed the start-finish line side-by-side on lap 18. Slipping under Babb down the backstretch, Richards assumed command just one circuit later and held on through the final laps to notch his fourth career victory at the famed Iowa oval.

“The car was good off of both ends. I just had to make sure I had it pointed the right way,” Richards said in victory lane after emerging from his father Mark's Rocket Chassis house car. "The longer we got going, we kept getting a little tighter and a little tighter. It took us a few laps to get by (Babb). I tried to move around a little bit, but this place, you don’t ever really feel like you’re in a comfort spot. It was a handful, but it was a lot of fun.”

Sitting atop the weekend’s combined points standings after notching a podium finish in Thursday’s 25-lap feature, Richards clinched the best points night to earn the pole postion for Saturday’s 100-lap, $40,000-to-win main event.

“We had a great points night last night and our car was good on the track,” Richards said. “The track was so different tonight with the rain water (from overnight storms). We’ll see what we’ve got tomorrow, but the car was phenomenal again tonight. I can’t thank the crew enough. We’ve had a fantastic year, but tomorrow’s the one we’re really looking at.”

Owens narrowly edged out Babb by inches to finish in the runner-up spot, with Babb settled for third place. Eighth-starting Dale McDowell advanced four spots to run fourth, with Mike Marlar of Winfield, Tenn., rounding out the top five.

“Tonight we made some more changes than what we did last night,” Owens said. “We went back and looked at our notebook from what we’ve been doing good in the past here and kind of compared notes. We did a little bit of that, qualified good, ran good in the heat race.

“Most of the time we’ve got a good racetrack here. We could run the bottom decent. We had too soft a tire on the right front, so we ran the bottom for a while and was pretty good and then the car got to pushing out across the corner. But R&W Motorsports put me in good equipment and we were able to get a good run tonight.”

Babb, who is still eyeing his first victory of the 2016 season, was happy with a solid finish after leading much of the race.

“We’re tickled to death with that,” Babb said. “We just wanted to see what our car would do up front and it was definitely strong, but it could be a little bit better. I knew (Richards) was going to be there at the end. He’s good at saving it until the last five laps, and that’s what he did. He drove by me pretty clean and it was a lot of fun racing with these guys."

The race was slowed by three cautions, all for cars slowing on the track. Fifth-running Chase Junghans of Manhattan, Kan., drew the first caution on lap three when he fell off the pace in turn two. Subsequent yellow was needed on lap 12 when Billy Moyer of Batesville, Ark., slowed on the bottom of turns one and two and lap 16 when Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., slowed in turn four.

Notes: Richards scored his 11th career Lucas Oil Series triumph and his 26th overall victory on his 2016 campaign. The runaway World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series points leader has five Lucas Oil Series wins in 11 tour starts this season; in the 10 series features he's run, he hasn't finished worse than third. … Junghans slipped from his outside pole starting spot to fifth on the opening lap because he lost the air on his car's nose as Babb slid in front of him. The next circuit a broken torque tube forced him out. ... Moyer, who won Thursday night's feature, retired after his car developed a vibration. ... Sheppard pulled off due to terminal motor trouble; he said he would have to change engines for Saturday's action. ... Scott Bloomquist of Mooresburg, Tenn., who missed Thursday's racing program, started sixth and briefly climbed as high as fourth before settling for an eighth-place finish.

Heat race notes

Chase Junghans pulled off the move of the prelims, charging off the outside off turn four on the final lap of the fourth heat to win by inches over Jonathan Davenport. “I didn’t know if I won,” Junghans said. “I could just see him out of the corner of my eye.” … Tim Lance was a happy winner of the second heat — his first-ever heat race triumph at Knoxville. “I’ve led laps in heats before here but I always got passed right at the end,” said Lance, who is competing as a teammate to good friend Jason Feger. “I’m glad there wasn’t a restart.” … The top two drivers in Thursday’s Nationals points standings — Josh Richards and Chris Simpson — finished one-two in the first heat. Both drivers looked extremely strong running the inside lane around the half-mile oval. … Ryan Gustin’s weekend apparently came to an early end when he rolled to a stop in turn four trailing smoke from his Gressel Racing car halfway through the third heat. He confirmed that it was terminal engine trouble in his older 2015 Rocket car, which he pressed into service after his newer Rocket XR1 mount was sidelined in a Thursday heat by a powerplant that melted down due to a broken fan blade; he doesn’t have another motor in his arsenal. … Dale McDowell finished third in Heat 4 despite racing virtually the entire distance with the left-front corner of his car’s roof pushed up in the air after the roof post broke. … Mitch McGrath scratched for the night after his heat due to a miss in his car’s engine that he hasn’t been able to diagnose. … Billy Moyer drove quickly to his pit stall after his fourth-place finish in Heat 3 so his crew could take off the hood and pour water on his overheating powerplant. … Shane Clanton pulled out of the evening’s action after experiencing engine woes during time trials. He’s in good shape points-wise — he ranked fourth after Thursday’s program — and plans to try fixing his motor by replacing its rocker arms. … Matt Furman brought out a caution flag on lap 10 of the fifth heat when he spun to a stop in turn four. He said he wasn’t sure what twirled him around and his car didn’t sustain much damage, but his crew found that the machine’s radiator had been pushed back toward the fan. … Officials scratched the scheduled D-Main.

Pre-race notes

Heavy rain struck Knoxville Raceway overnight, but no precipitation has fallen today and skies are clearing for the remainder of the weekend. … Lucas Oil Series points leader Scott Bloomquist has his hauler parked on the back row of the pits inside of turns three and four after failing to arrive at the track in time to compete in Thursday night’s racing program. His crewman, Cody Mallory, said he and Bloomquist were behind on preparation for the Nationals upon returning to their shop after Bloomquist ran an open-wheel modified event in Wisconsin last weekend and didn’t complete their work until Thursday morning. They pulled onto the Knoxville property Thursday night while the B-Main was on the track. … Tim McCreadie’s Sweeteners Plus made an engine change after a freak problem during Thursday night’s feature — his MSD box mount broke, causing a chain-reaction that put a hole in an oil line and sprayed oil into the cockpit throughout the race — used up an estimated eight quarts of oil. … Other drivers who made engine swaps after experiencing problems on Thursday included Dale McDowell and Brent Larson. … Ryan Gustin’s Thursday-evening engine woes — the result of a broken fan blade during heat action — prompted him to park the Gressel Racing Rocket XR1 car he ran and pull out his 2015 Rocket for tonight’s program. … Arizona’s Jake O’Neil learned Thursday that the turnaround time for last-chance race transfers to get ready for the next event is fast. His crew chief, Kier ‘Big Snack’ Hoover, said O’Neil had a hole in his car’s radiator when he returned to the pits after transferring through the C-Main, but without enough time to install a new radiator Hoover could only try to make a temporary patch using needle-nose pliers. … Veteran racer and car owner Al Humphrey of Giltner, Neb., entered himself in the weekend competition but decided to withdraw after not qualifying fast enough on Thursday night to make the eight-car invert. “I don’t race all summer and think I can come race here and do something? I’m smart enough to know it’s not gonna happen,” quipped Humphrey, who is sticking around to spectate. He added that he plans to take his No. 6 machine to Legit Speedway Park in West Plains, Mo. (“I’ve always wanted to go to West Plains,” he said) next weekend for a two-day MARS DIRTcar Series show with Brad Looney behind the wheel. … Humphrey is one of four Thursday-night entrants not in Friday’s field, joining Jared Hawkins (motor), Jesse Sobbing (motor) and Donny Schatz (WoO Sprint Car race).

Pre-race setup

The 13th annual Lucas Oil Knoxville Late Model Nationals presented by Casey’s General Stores continues Friday night with the second of two preliminary programs at the famed Knoxville Raceway, a half-mile fairgrounds oval best known for hosting sprint car racing.

Friday’s racing card, which begins with hot laps at 6:45 p.m. CT, is identical to Thursday’s with a complete program of time trials, six heat races, D-Main, C-Main, B-Main and 25-lap A-Main paying $7,000-to-win. Drivers accrue points based on performances each time they hit the track that will help set the lineup for Saturday's action.

Drivers will use their better points night — not combined points — to see where they stand for Saturday’s alphabet soup of features, which are topped by the 100-lap A-Man paying $40,000 to win. The top 24 drivers in the “best night” points rankings after Friday’s action will transfer directly to Saturday night’s headliner.
