SALINA, Okla. (Sept. 20) — Jesse Stovall’s 2013 MARS DIRTcar Series campaign may have been a struggle for much of the season, but it ended on major high note Saturday night at Salina Highbanks Speedway.

Stovall, the 2012 MARS champion, claimed a $3,000 victory Saturday to complete a sweep of 3/8-mile oval’s doubleheader weekend that wrapped up the season for both the MARS Series and the National Championship Racing Association. | Slideshow
