Travis Senter Jr. Claims $2k At Clarksville!
May 24th, 2009Osceola, AR– It took two separate trips to Clarksville Speedway inClarksville, Tennessee to complete one event, but Travis Senter Jr. finally sealed the deal on Saturday, May 16th as he picked up the $2,000 feature win!
Senter Motorsports first traveled to Clarksville Speedway back on April 18th for the $2,000 to win, 600cc Mini Sprint event. Travis qualified 2nd in time trials, and went on to win the pole sitter’s dash. Six laps into the feature, Mother Nature decided to take control of things and nixed the balance of the program.
The event was rescheduled for Saturday, May 16th, and once again a much less than favorable forecast was donned for the event. Despite the forecast, Senter Jr. made the long tow to Clarksville Speedway and luckily the rains would stay away. Even though six laps had previously been completed, the race was completely restarted with Senter Jr. on the pole. He grabbed the
lead at the drop of the green flag in his #22 Stallard Chassis/FTZ Racing Engine 600cc Mini Sprint, and it became evident early in the event that he had a great car. Despite having a great handling entry, Senter Jr. still had to withstand strong challenges from Joe Miller and Derek King. In the end though, Travis would take the win, which marked his 5th straight victory in the annual event!
An elated Senter Jr. commented, “I thought winning last year (2008) for the 4th time was special, but this one is truly special considering the way others have stepped up their programs and the racing is much tougher these days. My crew and I pride ourselves on a well built and well presented race car. Its hard enough to win big races once, much less 5 time in succession!”
