JIMMY MARS TAKES $10K FROM DAVENPORT!
Posted October 6, 2008

Jimmy Mars and his #28 Dirt Late Model team captured their fourteenth checkered flag of the 2008 racing season last weekend at the Davenport Speedway in Davenport, Iowa! The World Dirt Racing League (WDRL) Series held their season finale at Davenport on October 3-4 and a $10,000 top prize was up for grabs. On Friday night, Jimmy laid down the second quickest lap in qualifying and later won his heat race.

The Menomonie, Wisconsin driver then ran third in the dash to earn the inside second row starting spot for the 60-lap main event on Saturday evening. When the dirt-slinging action continued on Saturday, Jimmy moved his #28 entry to the front of the field on lap twenty-seven, as he passed race leader Darren Miller. He then held the point throughout the remainder of the 'Governors Cup' to record the $10,000 triumph over Darren Miller, Brady Smith, Jeff Aikey, and Jason Utter.

The driver of the Deppe Enterprises / Baileigh Industrial / Keyes Chevytown / Pro Power Racing #28 entry accumulated enough points from preliminary action to earn the inside fifth row starting spot for the $40,000 to win, 100-lap 'Knoxville Late Model Nationals' A-Main on Saturday. In front of the SPEED Channel cameras and a huge crowd, Jimmy once again marched to the front of the field.
