Lucas Oil Series made it's way into Bulls Gap, TN for their annual Scorcher 50 Thursday night and Southern Nationals touring driver Chris Madden had the car to beat. He held off Knoxville's Billy Ogle Jr. for the $10,000 pay day.
Ashland's own, Steve Francis started 11th and finished 9th in the 50-lap feature. Another top 10 sure doesn't hurt when you're in a field of cars that was as loaded as this one was Thursday night, but Francis still wasn't able to gain any ground on points leader Jimmy Owens. Owens come away with a 8th place finish and still holds on to his points lead.
Francis will be back in action at the unsanctioned $7500 to win, "Friday Night Rumble" at Ponderosa Speedway in Junction City, KY tonight. The next Lucas Oil event will be in Lawrenceburg, IN at Lawrenceburg Speedway Saturday night.
