Ardmore, OK (06/08/11) – Tyler Townsend got an early race reprieval in Round #3 of the COMP Cams SMP Longhorn Speedweek Presented By Racing Head Service at Lake Country Speedway (Ardmore, Oklahoma), and took advantage of it to claim the win in the $1,500 feature.

After setting fast time Tyler Townsend started on the pole with Jason Hughes to his outside for the main event. As the race went green it was Hughes, who bolted to the lead, with Townsend, Randy Timms, Jared Webb, and Peyton Taylor in tow.

As the field completed the second lap Townsend would catch a break as he spun out of turn two, but not before Jay Sale was involved in an accident down the front stretch and was credited with the caution. As a result, Townsend would retain the second position, and as the race went back green he would start to pressure Hughes for the lead.

The front running duo would battle at the front of the pack and as lap 9 was completed Townsend used a strong run on the inside to inch ahead. Through turns one and two the leaders would battle side-by-side before making contact heading into turn three, which sent Hughes off the end of the track to bring out the caution. A displeased Hughes would let it be known to Townsend before joining the back of the pack for a few laps before retiring.

Townsend would go on to run away from the field over the remainder of the event to claim the win over Randy Timms, Peyton Taylor, Jared Webb, and TJ Herndon.

Round #4 of the COMP Cams SMP Longhorn Speedweek will see the tour invade Lone Star Speedway (Kilgore, Texas) with another $1,500 to win/$125 to start event on Thursday, June 9th. For more information, please visit www.SMPSeries.com and www.LoneStarSpeedway.com.
