WHEATLAND, Mo. (July 19) — Bart Hartman of Zanesville, Ohio, regained the lead from Earl Pearson Jr. on the 40th lap at Lucas Oil Speedway and held on the rest of the way to capture his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series victory of the season. Hartman's 50-lap CMH Late Model Showdown victory paid $10,000 at the home track for the series.
