Dale McDowell led flag-to-flag in the 50-lap main event to claim the fifth annual Tennessee Tipoff for the World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series Saturday night at Smoky Mountain Speedway in Maryville, Tennessee.
The win was worth $10,000 for the Chickamauga, Georgia driver, who scored his second series victory of the season one night after retiring early from Friday night’s action with extensive damage to his car.
“Everybody worked hard on it last night and today,” said McDowell. “Shane (McDowell) had to go back (to the shop) to get some parts and that was a big part of it. Last night we actually turned our transponder in because we didn’t think we were going to make it but we were able to fix it. We had to actually go rob some parts off of Scott’s (Bloomquist) new car at the shop so we did that and I guess he’s alright with that. Thanks to Sweet-Bloomquist Race Cars and everybody that’s involved.”
McDowell started on the outside of the pole next to defending Series Champion Brandon Sheppard. On the first lap, McDowell commandeered the lead and never looked back. He was able to defend the top spot from hard-charging Chris Madden who claimed second on lap two.
“The track got pretty one-lane there so as soon as they started going with the single-file restarts, I really didn’t want to catch those guys (in the back),” said McDowell. “I was just trying to buy my time until I got to them just in case something happened. You just never know when you’re right on somebody. It leaves the second-place guy in control basically if something happened.”
“The funny thing is that we lost the ignition box and just thankfully I thought to reach down and switch ignition boxes,” continued McDowell. “I thought tonight was going to be over too. I think that’s about the first time in my career that I remembered I had two ignitions, as long as I’ve raced. Anyways, that worked out for us.”
Madden settled for second despite his relentless effort trying to chase down McDowell.
Sheppard came home in third, with Michael Chilton in fourth and Shanon Buckingham in fifth.
The World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series returns to action next week with stops at three tracks in three days including at Georgia’s Lavonia Speedway on Thursday, May 3, South Carolina’s Cherokee Speedway on Friday, May 4 and Georgia’s Senoia Raceway for the Billy Clanton Classic on Saturday, May 5.
