PETERSEN MEDIA- After weeks of weather, and schedule changes, Matt Covington and his Covington Racing team were back in action on Saturday night at the Devils Bowl Speedway, and although he had some bad luck, the Glenpool, OK driver clinched his third consecutive ASCS LoneStar Region Championship.
The night got off to a rough start for Covington as he was involved in a heat race accident that saw damage to the right front corner putting him last in the B main.
Marred in the back of the field, Covington elected to take it easy in the B, with a big race coming up this weekend.
Starting 19th, Covington was able to work his way up to the ninth spot at the line, not transferring to the feature, but clinching his second ASCS Regional title of the year.
“It was a tough night, but at the end of the day it is pretty cool to win another series title,” he said. “We had some bad luck on this night, but we will move on and hopefully run well at the Short Track Nationals.”
Matt and his Covington Racing team would like to thank T&L Foundry, Triple X Chassis, Winters, Brodix, C.G. Martin Company, Factor 1 Racing, All-Star Performance, Outlaw Wings, Pro Shocks, DMI Components, Keizer Wheels, ButlerBuilt, Simpson Race Products, GME Steering, Wesmar Racing Engines, Bob Hurley RV, Eaton Industrial, Maxwell Industries, and Schoenfeld Headers for their support in 2013.
