Bryan Hulbert – KNOXVILLE, Iowa (April 22, 2020) With the first round of action in the books for the Lucas Oil ASCS eSport Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network, the next round of iRacing competition will take place on Friday, April 24 at Knoxville Raceway with action kicking off at 5:00 P.M. (CT).
Looking at a potential field of 60 drivers, several Knoxville Raceway regulars are slated to be in action with names like Brian Brown, Jamie Ball, Matthew Johnson, Ryan Leavitt, and Carson McCarl in the mix. The race will be shown live on Racinboys.com as well as the RacinBoys Facebook Page free of charge.
Looking back at last week's race at Williams Grove Speedway, Arizona’s Colton Hardy grabbed the win by holding off the late-race charge of Tony Gualda following a caution with five to go. A two-time champion of the ASCS Southwest Region, Hardy’s record in the iRacing Universe is extensive with 241 wins since 2014 across Oval, Dirt Oval, Road, and Dirt Road categories with 27 of those wins coming since January 1, 2020.
The virtual showdown at Knoxville Raceway is presented by Lucas Oil Products and Great Southern Bank.
