Clarksville, TN (March 2, 2012) – Tony Jackson Jr. of Lebanon, MO picked up the win at Clarksville Speedway on night one of the 8th Annual Tuckasee Toilet Bowl Classic and also recorded his first MARS DIRTcar Series win.

Jackson started the feature from the pole position but it was outside front row starter RC Whitwell of Tucson, AZ that would dominate the race. Jackson never let Whitwell get more than five car lengths in front but it was lap traffic that would allow Jackson to pull catch Whitwell. Racing was tight on the bull ring and the back half of the field was racing two wide in front of the leaders. Whitwell would try multiple times to get underneath Leroy Johnson of Springfield, MO before trying the topside of the track. With Whitwell trying the outside, Jackson found the opportunity he was looking for and dove his car underneath Whitwell. The pair drove side by side over the next couple of laps as they kept looking for an opening to pass. Jackson was able to get underneath Johnson and moved to the top of the scoreboard with Whitwell in hot pursuit. A wreck in turn one would slow the racing with just two laps remaining. Whitwell, Johnson, Brandon Morton of Broken Arrow, OK and defending MARS Champion Brad Looney of Republic, MO would all be involved in the accident. Jackson would hold off repeated attempts by Greg Johnson of Bedford, IL for the $3,000 payday.

Johnson, Jesse Stovall of Galena, MO; David Turner of Creighton, MO and Kent Robinson of Bloomington, IN rounded out the top five finishers.

Night two will feature a $5,000 top prize and bragging rights of 8th Annual Tuckasee Toilet Bowl Champion.
