Meseraull Scores "4-Crown" Sprint Car Upset
The “Fall Nationals” are Saturday at Lawrenceburg (Ind.) Speedway and Robert Ballou continues to hold a slim lead over Chase Stockon and Dave Darland in the AMSOIL USAC National Sprint Car standings.
All three recorded “top-10” finishes in last Saturday’s “4-Crown Nationals” at the Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio and only 35 points separate the trio entering Saturday’s Lawrenceburg race. Ballou stands 25 points ahead of Stockon and 35 ahead of Darland.
Thomas Meseraull of San Jose, Calif. scored an upset victory at Eldora in the Amati Racing Marion Underground Construction/Zeller Construction DRC/Claxton. He was the last of four feature lap leaders, but led the final 15 laps after passing Stockon on lap 16. Previous leaders included Kody Swanson and Bryan Clauson, who finished second and fourth respectively.
Trailing Meseraull at the checkered flag were Swanson, Darland, Clauson and Scotty Weir, while Ballou was eighth.
Logan Jarrett (April) and Brady Bacon (July) earned Lawrenceburg victories earlier this season.
Spectator gates at Lawrenceburg open at 5 pm and practice is scheduled to begin at 6 pm.
