Feger leads all 40 laps of the MARS/UMP race at Tri City to capture his first series win, and the $3000 top prize!
Not being a big fan of passing points, the team was a little discouraged with a last place starting spot in the heat. But, Jason went to work and charged from the tail to finish a close second, just inches from taking the heat win. His performance in the heat race landed him pole position in the feature.
When the green waved, Jason proceeded to put on a clinic, amassing a 5 second lead over the second place car. Lap traffic was never much of a problem, and while he spent most of the race in his familiar top groove, the car was fast wherever Jason needed it to go.
After the races, Jason commented that "I don't like passing points racing, but maybe they aren't so bad when you get a track like that to race on. The Gundakers did a great job with the racing surface and the heats were long enough to make things happen."
The team has decided to continue on south to Lake of the Ozarks Speedway, in Eldon Missouri, for the second night of MARS/UMP competition.
Comment of the night goes to Jason. After almost winning the heat, he says: "I wish I had my big motor in the car..."
