Bloomquist Best in Jackson 100 for Seventh Time......
Boknecht & Schumpe Feature Winners

BROWNSTOWN SPEEDWAY - 09/23/2017

When Scott Bloomquist first raced at the Brownstown Speedway in the late 1980’s he took an immediate liking to the quarter-mile track and Saturday Night he won for the 13th time in his career at the Southern Indiana oval as he captured a record-extending seventh Jackson 100 event. Bloomquist, who won the event last year as well in leading 97 of 100 laps a year ago led all 100 laps this time to take home the $15,000 victory.

Jason Jameson made a late-race charge to close the gap on Bloomquist, but could never get close enough to challenge Bloomquist in the final laps as the two raced through traffic. Hudson O’Neal, the leading rookie driver on the LOLMDS circuit started on the outside of the front row and finished in third. Completing the top five were Jimmy Owens and Gregg Satterlee.

“I don’t know why they boo me as much here. I guess it’s because they have had so many good drivers from this area. I have to give it up for Hudson (O’Neal) he has really impressed me this year. What can you say about Don (O’Neal) he has always been a great competitor and he has been racing a long time. The have had a lot of good cars from this area as well. We respect everybody out there.”

“After they went out and re-worked the track I wasn’t worried about changing anything. We never considered it. The track had more traction than I thought it would. We bottomed out a few times during the race. The car was perfect. I could keep turning it and throttling it through the corners. There was plenty room to pass. You don’t have eyes in the back of your head, so you just try to do the best you can.”

Jameson put himself in contention to try and steal the win away from Bloomquist because after the last restart of the race Jameson came from fifth to second in a flash. Jameson then slowly closed ground on Bloomquist but he couldn’t get close enough to make a last-lap effort. “I want to thank the fans for coming out. I hope they enjoyed the races this weekend. I want to thank James Rattliff for giving me a chance to drive his car. Thanks to Jeff Gullett and Tim Tungate and everybody else on the crew for their help. “

“He (Bloomquist) was so good on the bottom. When I got to second, I thought I had a shot at him. If we would have had another caution I think we has a good shot at him. The car was firing off well on restarts. I couldn’t steer the car early on because the track was so fast. We weren’t set-up for it early on.”

Hudson O’Neal who made his first Jackson n100 a year ago and finished in tenth. This year he ran second for most the race and came home in third place. “For sure we are happy with this finish after last night. I can’t thank everybody enough on the crew for getting this car up front tonight. The crew spent most of last night going through notes to make the car better for tonight and sure enough they did it.”

Completing the top ten were Tim McCreadie, Darrell Lanigan, Bobby Pierce, Don O’Neal and Earl Pearson, Jr.
