Bloomington, Indiana (10/16/12) – Saturday night was a great outing for Kent Robinson as he piloted his #7r JB's Salvage/Mastersbilt/Jay Dickens Racing Engine Super Late Model to the $5,000 win in the Fall 50 at Florence Speedway (Union, Kentucky).
Twenty-seven Super Late Models entered the event, and after storming to the win in the fourth heat race Kent earned the fifth starting spot for the main event. As the feature went green Robinson wasted no time working his way forward as he took over the top spot on lap 5 with a three wide pass for the lead. Once out front Kent never looked back as he went on to claim the victory over Eric Wells, Eddie Carrier Jr., Jason Jameson, and Kyle Logue. The triumph was his second of the 2012 campaign and marked the richest win of his young, Dirt Late Model career!
“There’s no doubt it boosts morale and it makes it seem like it’s all worth it,” Robinson said from his shop two days after his victory lane celebration at the well-known half-mile Bluegrass State oval. “When you put in all the time and the effort that we do – when you’re so dedicated to racing and trying to make your life out of it – getting a ‘W’ lets you know why you’re doing it.
“And winning builds my confidence personally. We’ve been good there before so I knew we might eventually get a win, but to do it in the ‘Fall 50,’ a race that has a little bit of prestige and history to it, is a big deal for me and the whole team.”
Full results are available at www.FlorenceSpeedway.com.
Robinson now turns his attention to a race in his home state this weekend with a trip to Kokomo Speedway (Kokomo, Indiana) on Saturday evening. The Kokomo Klash VI will be headlined by a $2,012-to-win, unsanctioned event. For more information on the event, please visit www.KokomoSpeedway.net .
