BATTLING FOR THE WIN AT FLORENCE MOTOR SPEEDWAY!!!
After deciding to not run the full Dominion Raceway schedule, the Barnes Racing crew set their sights on the abrasive Florence Motor Speedway! Two months removed from the biggest win of AirDoug’s career, he was in the top 5 in both practice sessions on Saturday morning! Qualifying came around and Doug wound up in 3rd for race one.
In the first race, the leader would jump out to an enormous lead. Crew chief/spotter "Chase Pistone” decided it was time to intentionally fall back in an attempt to “play the invert game” in race number two. They did just that and finished 7th.
Now starting on the front row, Doug would jump out to a large lead at the start of race two. It would be short lived because just after halfway another car would run him down and take the lead from him. He would remain with a solid 2nd place finish!
