Oh, boy. The “O” boys of Jimmy Owens of Newport, Tenn., and Don O’Neal of Martinsville, Ind., staked their claims at separate Tennessee special events by setting the fast qualifying times Friday in preliminary action.

Owens was the fast qualifier at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, Tenn., for the 10th annual BB&T-Toyota Tundra Spring Thaw 100, while O’Neal set quick time at StormPay.com Speedway in Clarksville, Tenn., for the fourth annual Tuckassee Toilet Bowl Classic. Both March 21-22 events — Volunteer’s Advance Auto Parts Thunder Series event and Clarksville’s UMP-sanctioned special — pay $10,000 to the winner in the Saturday feature events.

Volunteer’s heat race winners were Owens, Brandon Kinzer of Allen, Ky., last year’s race winner Scott Bloomquist of Mooresburg, Tenn., and Chris Madden of Gray Court, S.C. Clarksville’s heat race winners were O’Neal, Wendell Wallace of Batesville, Ark., reigning UMP champion Dennis Erb Jr. of Carpentersville, Ill., and Wes Steidinger of Fairbury, Ill. — Robert Walden and Chris Tilley
