APRIL 28, 2008 --- Brandon Kinzer and
his #18 team were ultra-busy last weekend, as they entered a trio
of Dirt Late Model events in Alabama. Brandon's busy extended weekend
kicked-off last Thursday, April 24 at the Green Valley Speedway in
Glencoe, Alabama with the $3,000 to win 'Road to Dega 50.' He timed
in second quickest in qualifying, which earned him the outside front
row starting spot for the 50-lap A-Main. After jumping out into the
lead on the initial start of the race, Brandon was penalized during
an early caution period for jumping the start. Disappointed by the
decision, the Allen, Kentucky native kept his cool and wound up a
solid third in the final rundown behind winner Ray Cook and runner-up
Shane Clanton.
The
action then turned to the Talladega Short Track in Eastaboga, Alabama
on Friday and Saturday night for a pair of Dirt Late Model shows.
On Friday night at TST, Brandon was third fastest in qualifying prior
to running sixth in the $2,000 to win A-Main. The O'Reilly Southern
Allstars Series (OSAS) sanctioned Saturday's race at the "Hornet's
Nest," as a $5,000 top prize was up for grabs. Unfortunately
for the #18 team, Brandon drew an early number in qualifying and then
missed transferring into the starting field by one spot in his B-Main.
