BATESVILLE, Ark. (March 17-18) – The story was similar for both nights of Batesville Motor Speedway’s Arkansas Spring Nationals.
Jeff Taylor raced his way to the lead in both Friday and Saturday IMCA Modified features and led to the finish of each $1,250 to win event.
“The car was good, the track was racy and I could go where I wanted to,” summarized Taylor, who had started third on opening night and sixth on night two.
Taylor was already on the ballot for the upcoming Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational.
Robby Arnold, Drew Armstrong, Wayne Brooks and Clay Norris completed Friday’s top five. Peyton Taylor, Ken Schrader, Mark Norris and Brooks were second through fifth, respectively, on Saturday.
