Wayne Johnson Rebounds From Engine Failure For ASCS Gulf South/Lone Star Victory

Bryan Hulbert – MESQUITE, Texas (May 25, 2019) With an engine expiring under the hood of his Outlaw Wings No. 2c during his Heat Race, Wayne Johnson fought out of the B-Feature and proceeded to put on a driving clinic Saturday night in the Griffith Truck and Equipment ASCS Gulf South Region vs. ASCS Lone Star Region showdown at the famed Devil’s Bowl Speedway.

Rolling to second in the B-Feature from 12th, the transfer put Wayne starting 16th in the A-Feature. Picking his way through the running order, the wily veteran took over the point on Lap 10 and never looked back.

Tony Bruce, Jr. made a last-minute appearance after Mother Nature nixed his TBJ Promotions event in Garden City, Kan. and made it worthwhile with a second-place finish. Joe Wood, Jr. came up from 10th to complete the night’s podium. Kevin Ramey from 13th crossed fourth with Jordan Weaver crossing fifth.

Also coming out of the B-Feature, 19th starting Forrest Sutherland crossed sixth. Jake Bubak in seventh has Steven Shebester in tow. Scott Evans and Chad Wilson made up the top ten.

Griffith Truck and Equipment ASCS Gulf South Region will again take on the ASCS Lone Star Region on Sunday, May 26 at Lonestar Speedway in Kilgore, Texas.
