Jason Jameson and supporters celebrate his second win of the season.
What won the race: Fast qualifier Jason Jameson of Lawrenceburg, Ind., led all the way Friday at Ponderosa Speedway for a $4,000 victory on the first-year Slingin' Dirt Late Model Series. Jameson took the checkers 1.825 seconds ahead of Skylar Marlar in the tour's second event.
Key notes: Jameson lapped all but four competitors for his second victory of the season, adding to a June 12 unsanctioned win at Ponderosa. ... Three cautions slowed the action, the first on the 14th lap for Bill Wagner's flat tire. ... A lap-17 caution appeared for debris. ... On the 21st lap, David Webb, who ran as high as third, had a flat tire. ... The 15-minute feature concluded at 9:58 p.m. ... The track dodged rain during the day and the Late Model feature beat an approaching storm, scrapping heat races. ... The Bobby Carrier Sr. Memorial honored the well-known and respected competitor in the central Kentucky area and mechanic who operated his own garage for many years; Carrier died June 26, 2014, at the age of 73. … The race was originally set to pay $3,000-to-win before receiving a $1,000 bump courtesy of Nan’s Olde Town Grill. … It was the second-ever event for the first-year series founded by D.J. Smallwood. ... Jameson also picked up $209 courtesy of Bobby Carrier Jr. for fast time. ... Ponderosa is scheduled to host the Slingin’ Dirt Series two more times this season with a $3,000-to-win show on Sept. 18 before Oct. 23’s $5,000-to-win program.
On the move: Sam Green of Knoxville, Tenn., started 12th and finished seventh; Dakota Smith of Powell, Tenn., started 13th and finished eighth.
