Aberdeen, MS (01/25/12) – Even though it’s just January Jay Dickens Racing Engines (JDRE) customers are already making some noise, and last week Don O’Neal registered the first official win of the year for the company with a triumph in Arizona.

With the new year just recently arriving, Jay Dickens Racing Engines customers made the long trip to the desert to open their season during the 6th Annual Wild West Shootout at USA Raceway (Tucson, Arizona). Arguably the hottest driver in the country in 2011, Don O’Neal from Martinsville, Indiana, began 2012 with the same winning ways by claiming the third round of the miniseries on Wednesday, January 18th with a $3,000 win in his #71 Mastersbilt/Jay Dickens Racing Engine Super Late Model.

“This race track was crazy fast tonight, and my Jay Dickens motor gave me all the power I needed to get the job done,” commented O’Neal.

Another JDRE customer, John Anderson from Omaha, Nebraska, also enjoyed a successful outing in the six race series. While he didn’t get a win, he did lead the first seventeen laps of the main event on Sunday, January 15th before settling for a second place finish in his #2 Shop Quick Motorsports/Mastersbilt/JDRE entry. Anderson also recorded a third place finish in the $10,000-to-win finale.

As JDRE continues to prepare for the rapidly-approaching Speedweeks 2012 in Georgia and Florida, the company would like to thank all of their customers for their support throughout the 2011 season and looks forward to an even bigger season in 2012.

Jay Dickens Racing Engines power many of the nation’s top teams with racing engines. In addition, they offer a full range of racing products and components from various vendors. For more information on Jay Dickens Racing Engines and all of their products, please visit http://www.JayDickens.com .
