Fulton, MS (05/11/10) – Eric Cooley continued his torrid start to the season by picking up his second win of the 2010 season with the NeSmith Late Model Series on Friday night at Central Mississippi Speedway in Winona, Mississippi.
The 2009 NeSmith National Late Model Series Champion, Eric Cooley, enjoyed another great weekend in his #33c Victory Circle M1 Chassis By Moyer in the NeSmith Late Model Series doubleheader at Central Mississippi Speedway in Winona, Mississippi. On Friday night with thirty-one entries on hand, Eric displayed dominance as he set fast time in qualifications to earn the pole position for the feature. He went on to lead the entire feature event to take the $2,000 win, which was his second triumph of the 2010 season!
On Saturday night, Eric qualified tenth fastest in qualifying for the $2,500 to win event, which gave him a front row starting spot for a heat race. He would go on to win his heat race to start 8th in the feature event. Eric would race his way to the front of the pack early in the feature and looked to be on his way to his second win in as many nights, but disaster struck on lap 30 when a lapped car made heavy contact with Cooley. The caution would wave and Eric would retain his position as the leader, but with heavy front end damage, he would fade to a third place finish at the checkered flag behind event winner, Chris Ragan, and Larry Harrod. Full results from the weekend can be found at www.NeSmithRacing.com .
On the heels of his two solid finishes, Eric now holds a 52 point advantage over Mathew Turner for the point's lead in the NeSmith National Late Model standings.
This weekend Eric will make his second trip of the year to Batesville Motor Speedway in Locust Grove, Arkansas for a pair of Crate Late Model events, which are being sponsored by Bad Boy Mowers and Isle of Capri Casino. On Friday, May 14th a $1,500 to win feature will be held, while a $2,000 to win feature will be held on Saturday, May 15th. For more information, please visit www.BatesvilleMotorSpeedway.net .
