Tommy Jones gets dialed in at Friendship before his Blue Ridge Outlaws victory Saturday.
What won the race: Winning his first career feature in any division, ninth-starting Tommy Jones of Shepherds Crossroads, N.C., topped David Minton and John Eller for a Blue Ridge Outlaws triumph at Friendship Motor Speedway on Saturday. Jones earned $1,500.
Quotable: “First off I’m gonna thank the good Lord above. I don’t deserve this. He’s done so much for me,” said Jones. “I wanna thanks Matthew Nance, Brian Nance, Sandy, all the Nances. They’ve took me under their wing. After qualifying I called Brian and told him what I had and I told him what I’d done. He said, you’re headed in the right direction, just go with it. And heck, they dropped the green flag and we went up pretty quick. Matthew (Nance) built this car. I just bought it. I so appreciate them.”
Key notes: Weather pushed the race to Saturday from Friday. ... Friendship Motor Speedway hosts the Blue Ridge Outlaws for the third time this season. … The race is a double points event. … Matthew Nance of Ronda, N.C., won the tour’s first two visits this season. … Nance has a series-best eight wins this year. … There is a $200 bonus for the highest finishing Crate Late Model. … Crate sportsman, 602 modifieds, super stock 4, pure stock 4 and extreme front-wheel drivers are also on the card. … The series returns Nov. 22-23.
