Tim McCreadie won a hard-fought Jackson 100 for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series on Saturday night at Indiana’s Brownstown Speedway.

The victory moves the reigning series national champion another step closer to his second consecutive title.

McCreadie’s third career victory in Brownstown’s biggest race of the year allowed him to move to a 180-point advantage over Brandon Sheppard in the championship hunt.

McCreadie, who led the first 25 laps of the race before yielding the top spot to Tyler Erb, got back by the Texan on lap 65 after he, Erb, and Ricky Thornton, Jr. had a 3-car battle for the top spot.

Thornton got by Erb on lap 68 as Erb relinquished the second spot. A 70-lap run of green flag racing ended with 20 laps to go when a caution came out. On the restart, McCreadie was able to keep enough breathing room between himself and Thornton to the checkers.

Thornton took the runner-up position as Erb rounded out the podium in third. Josh Rice finished in fourth followed by Daulton Wilson in fifth.

“I didn’t want the tires moved in just because that’s where I like to run,” said McCreadie. “That’s where they always have been, unfortunately it just so long to get the outside cleaned up to keep up. I mean Terbo (Tyler Erb) passed me down there and I thought, I need to get back in my lane and I was able to get back by him. Hats off to my crew. This car was brand new at I-80. I think we have 5 or 6 races total on it. Man, it’s like anything else you just hate getting out of something you like.”

Hudson O’Neal, Mike Marlar, Earl Pearson, Jr., Trevor Landrum, and Spencer Hughes rounded out the top 10.

The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series returns to action on Thursday, September 29 at Tyler County Speedway in Middlebourne, West Virginia. For more information, visit LucasDirt.com.
