(August

2010)
–
Jared
Landers
of
Batesville,
AR
scored
the
first
Late
Model
victory
of
his
career
on
Sunday
Afternoon
as
he
captured
the
$40,000
to
win
18th
Annual
COMP
Cams
Topless
100
at
Batesville
Motor
Speedway.
Landers,
a
veteran
open
wheel
modified
driver,
took
the
lead
from
Earl
Pearson
Jr.
of
Jacksonville,
FL
with
three
laps
to
go
in
the
Lucas
Oil
Late
Model
Dirt
Series
sanctioned
event.
Jimmy
Owens
of
Newport,
TN
edged
out
Pearson
at
the
finish
line
for
second,
followed
by
Pearson,
Terry
Phillips
of
Springfield,
MO
and
Brady
Smith
of
Solon
Springs,
WI.
“I
don’t
know
what
to
say,”
said
the
29-year-old
driver
in
victory
lane,
“This
is
my
first
Late
Model
win,
to
do
it
here
on
my
home-
track
and
in
front
of
my
fans;
it’s
something
I’ll
always
remember,”
said
Landers.
“I
have
to
thank
Shane
McDowell
and
all
of
my
crew;
they
did
a
great
job
all
day
long;
thanks
to
Boater
Sports,
Mark
Martin
KIA,
and
Mark
Martin
Chevrolet
for
all
of
their
help
along
with
Warrior
Race
Cars
and
Earnhardt-Childress
Racing
Engines
…
this
is
unbelievable.”
The
afternoon
heat
and
the
baked
track
surface
forced
every
team
that
finished
the
race
to
pit
at
least
once
for
fresh
rubber.
Don
O’Neal
led
the
first
43
laps
of
the
race
until
yielding
to
polesitter,
Chris
Madden.
Madden
then
held
the
top
spot
until
ninth-starting
Scott
Bloomquist
took
over
the
lead
on
lap
46.
Bloomquist
and
Madden
then
ran
one-two
through
several
caution
flags.
Madden
re-gained
the
point
from
Bloomquist
on
lap
57,
but
Bloomquist
came
back
five
laps
later
to
re-take
the
lead.
Bloomquist
held
the
top
spot
until
a
lap
84-restart
when
Landers
slipped
under
him
on
the
backstretch
to
take
over
the
lead,
much
to
delight
of
the
crowd.
Bloomquist
began
to
fade
as
he
slowed
on
lap
87
to
bring
out
a
caution.
He
darted
into
the
pits
to
change
tires.
Bloomquist
had
been
the
only
car
on
the
track
that
had
not
pitted.
On
the
restart,
Landers
was
challenged
by
both
Pearson
and
Owens.
Pearson
slipped
by
Landers
on
lap
95
for
the
lead,
but
Landers
came
back
with
authority
to
take
over
the
top
spot
for
the
final
three
circuits.
Landers
went
on
to
hold
off
both
Pearson
and
Owens
as
the
three
almost
came
across
the
finish
side-by-side.
Owens,
in
the
Reece
Monument

Race
Cars
entry
nipped
Pearson
at
the
line
for
second,
but
said
afterwards
he
should
have
pitted
a
little
earlier.
“We
came
in
the
pits
a
little
sooner
than
I
anticipated,”
said
Owens.
