Pontoon Beach, IL – July 9, 2010 – Just like in 2009, Jason Feger was the man to beat Friday Night at Tri-City Speedway, the 21st stop of the DIRTcar Summer Nationals Tour.

The Bloomington, Ill., native started early in the evening capturing quick-time honors overall and never relented. Feger, the 2009 DIRTcar Late Model National Champion would then dominate his heat race on his way to leading all 40-laps of the feature where he lapped everyone outside the top five. Feger’s repeat performance of his first ever Hell Tour victory earned him $10,000.

Will Vaught of Crane, Mo., would climb from sixth to second early but never challenge for the lead as Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill., finished third, his second straight third place performance. Current DIRTcar Summer Nationals point leader Dennis Erb Jr. of Carpentersville, Ill., would finish fourth allowing Feger to cut 15 points from his lead heading into the final seven races. Brian Shirley would climb from his 10th place starting spot to round out the top five.

Up next for the DIRTcar Summer Nationals Tour is a visit to Fairbury American Legion Speedway on Saturday July 10, 2010. In total the Hell Tour has traveled over 4,000 miles in the course of 24 nights. The trip from Pontoon Beach, Ill., to Fairbury American Legion Speedway in Fairbury, Ill., will have drivers traveling over 190 miles northeast to the track where all-time Hell Tour wins leader Billy Moyer of Batesville, Ark., won in 2009.
