Bryan Hulbert – LONGDALE, Okla. (May 20, 2023) A battle to the finish for Jason Martin at Longdale Speedway on Saturday, the Kansas shoe fought with Jake Bubak through the opening half of Saturday’s A-Feature, only to have Seth Bergman drive into the mix in the closing laps, but the No. 23 could not deny Martin his third consecutive National Tour score.

“I'll tell you want, Jake Bubak and Seth Bergman, you can talk all the smack you want, but these guys are the best in the country. These guys are really good, so when we can beat them I feel really proud, and these guys behind me, they make the magic happen. I just get to stand on the loud pedal, and be very fortunate to have such a face racecar. It just kept getting better and better," exclaimed Jason of the win.

Exchanging the lead three times through traffic with Bubak through the first ten laps, the No. 27b was never far behind as traffic brought Martin to and from. Finally getting some breathing room with five laps to go, a wall of traffic brought the race for second to Jason’s doorstep.

Enter Seth Bergman, the Evergreen Coffee, Co. No. 23 shot to the runner-up spot on Lap 23. Chasing Martin down, time would run out as Jason made it to the line 0.335-seconds ahead of the No. 23. Jake Bubak held third, with Matt Covington fourth. Brandon Anderson completed the top five.

Jordon Mallett, in sixth, was followed by Jeremy Campbell. Eighth went to Whit Gastineau, with Landon Crawley ninth. Landon Britt rounded out the top ten.

The opening night of the Walleye Rodeo Roundup drew a 26-car field. Jake Bubak was the overall quick qualifier and established the track record at 14.565-seconds. A.R. Dyno Services Heat Race wins went to Brandon Anderson, Matt Covington, and Seth Bergman. The KSE Hard Charger was Danny Wood, who picked up ten positions in the A-Feature.
