Inside Line Promotions – McCOOL JUNCTION, Neb. (May 24, 2016) – Jack Dover garnered his best finish of the season last Saturday at Junction Motor Speedway, but the result wasn’t very satisfying.

Dover kicked off the Carpetland Nebraska 360 Sprints event at Junction Motor Speedway by winning a heat race after starting on the outside of the front row. That locked him into the feature redraw, where he pulled the No. 2 to start the main event on the front row.

“Me and Don Droud Jr. switched positions the first two laps,” he said. “I was leading and I showed him the line where the rubber was. He got by me somehow and took that line. I was never able to get by him again.

“Later on Droud Jr. got around a lapped car and I got up to that lapped car and I tried everything I could to pass him. Everywhere I went he went. I tried going around him on the outside of a corner and I slid out of the rubber and third place got by me.”

Dover ended with a third-place finish, which was his first podium of the season.

“I know a win is right around the corner,” he said. “More importantly, we want to send our condolences to the family of the man who passed away at the track on Saturday.”

Dover was scheduled to compete on Sunday at Badlands Motor Speedway in Brandon, S.D., but a couple of mechanical issues with his mule and trailer forced him to stay home.

This weekend Dover is slated to compete at Jackson Motorplex in Jackson, Minn., on Friday with the GoMuddy.com National Sprint League 360 Tri-State Region, which is hosting twin features. Dover will then drive a 305ci sprint car on Saturday at Eagle Raceway in Eagle, Neb., for Chris Roseland.
