Steve Sheppard Jr. gets rolling at Jacksonville Speedway.
What won the race: Steve Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., grabbed the point when fellow Illini driver and race leader Brian Diveley of Springfield, Ill., jumped the cushion exiting turn four just past the race's halfway mark.
Key notes: Sheppard cruised to an uncontested victory over the second half of the feature. ... Hometown driver Adam Mefford led the opening handful of laps before giving way to Diveley. ... Sheppard is now 2-for-2 behind the wheel of his new Rocket Chassis, which he triumphantly debuted last week at Montgomery Motorsports Park in New Florence, Mo. ... Jerrod Hull of Sikeston, Mo., won the Midwest Open Wheel Association Sprint Car feature. ... The UMP DIRTcar-sanctioned Big 10 mini-tour has expanded to four tracks this season, adding Quincy Raceway to the mix including Jacksonville, Macon and Quincy Speedways.
Points chase: The event opened the 2014 season for the miniseries; Sheppard was crowned champ in 2013.
