Demon
Possesses Golden Driller with Chili Bowl
Triumph!
 Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (January 12, 2008) – Damion
Gardner picked perhaps the largest dirt
track stage in history to shine upon by
racing to victory lane in Saturday night's
50-lap championship main event at Tulsa
Expo Raceway's 22nd Annual
Dodge Chili Bowl Midget Nationals.
After winning Friday night's Qualifying feature, "The
Demon" raced into the lead on the
eleventh lap and led the rest of the way
to become the 16th different
winner in event history in front of a
packed house at Tulsa's QuikTrip Center
and before a worldwide television audience
on HBO Pay-Per-View courtesy of Lucas Oil.
Piloting Jason Leffler's Pace Electronics/Team ASE No. 71g
entry, the winningest driver in USAC/CRA
history and the series' 2005 champion
bested a record Chili Bowl Nationals field
of 274 competitors from 29 different
states as well as Canada and Australia as
he made his first Chili Bowl main event
since finishing tenth in 2003.
"I was just trying to keep the nerves down the whole
time, and even during the race at the end
it was tough to keep the nerves down and
to put in the good laps," Gardner
commented afterward.
Dave
Darland, who finished a close second, responded that,
"I was trying to keep his nerves up
there a few times, it didn't work."
Gardner went on to say, "The car was really good when it
was pretty tacky all the way across, but
it was getting really slick to a curb.
And it was right after a yellow, I
got in a little too hot and caught the
edge of it and spiked it up.
I just tried to keep it straight,
and when we landed Dave (Darland) was
alongside me but he was on the slick and
probably gonna get no traction.
From then on, I just entered a
little lower and tried to put in good
smooth laps rather than fast ones."
It was an approach that paid huge dividends in the end for
the California native that now resides in
Pittsboro, IN.
Saturday's Bass Pro Shops slate of 21 feature events
culminated with the 50-lap finale, with
Wednesday night's Creek Nation Casino
Qualifying Showdown winner Josh Ford on
the pole with Friday night's O'Reilly Auto
Parts Qualifying event winner Gardner
alongside.
After Brady Bacon, the lone Oklahoma representative in the
main event, was shuffled atop the inside
berm in turn one to negate the original
start, Ford got the edge on Gardner as the
pack raced through the opening pair of
corners.
Ford, Gardner and Thursday's Warren CAT Qualifier winner Brad
Kuhn led the way in the early stages and
began to separate themselves from the rest
of the 24-car feature field after a
handful of laps.
Working his preferred top groove, Gardner began working on
Ford for the lead after six laps, only to
jump the cushion on the eighth round and
lose several car-lengths.
Gardner wasted little time reeling
Ford back in though, closing to his tail
tank by the time they reached lapped
traffic on lap ten with the lead trio of
Ford, Gardner and Kuhn nearly a
straightaway ahead of fourth-running Dave
Darland.
A lap later, Gardner charged past Ford for the lead with Kuhn
following suit by taking second upon the
completion of the eleventh round.
Lap thirteen proved to be unlucky for Kuhn when the lapped
car of Terry McCarl got loose in turns one
and two and collected the two-time
National Midget Driver of the Year.
Ford made contact in the melee as
well, but somehow managed to squeeze by to
reclaim second as the caution flew.
Gardner quickly opened up a half straightaway lead over Ford
on the restart, with Darland another half
straightaway back in third, only to have
the pace interrupted after 16 laps when
Kasey Kahne come to a stop in turn three.
With smoke billowing from the
NASCAR Sprint Cup star's machine over the
previous two laps, Kahne retired to the
infield.
At the same time, Kuhn reported to the work area and was
unable to rejoin the chase, settling for a
22nd place finish in his third
career Chili Bowl championship main event.
Ensuing cautions included one after 19 laps for Cole Whitt,
who spun in turn four, and then one after
22 laps for a four-car tangle in turn four
that included McCarl, Bobby Michnowicz,
Nathan High and Billy Wease.
Michnowicz and Wease, both making
their first career Chili Bowl main event
start, were done for the night.
Two laps later, McCarl spun to a stop on the backstretch to
bring out another caution.
At the same time, Ford jumped the
turn two cushion and bicycled before
coming to a stop and surrendering the
second position.
Darland and fellow Indiana shoe Shane Cottle closed in on
Gardner's rear nerf bar on the restart,
but Gardner was once again able to open up
an advantage of a half dozen car-lengths.
Gardner survived two more cautions over the duration of the
race, including the final one after 42
laps when 2007 USAC Midget champion and
National Midget Driver of the Year Jerry
Coons, Jr., got upside down in a turn four
tangle that also involved Whitt and
Levi Jones, who had come to an earlier
stop on lap 34.
Darland and Cottle gave chase over the final eight-lap charge
to Roger Slack's checkered flag, but
despite one Gardner bobble in turn four
with the white flag in sight, no one was
up to the task of overtaking "The
Demon" on this night.
 Gardner flashed across the finish line to lay claim to the
Golden Driller trophy.
"Jason (Leffler) is really
excited, three weeks ago we weren't even
going to do this and hopefully we can take
this momentum and continue on through the
year.
He got his first car owner trophy,
so not too bad."
Darland settled for second in Steve Lewis' Ed Pink
Toyota-powered Team ASE/Performance Racing
Industry No. 9x Spike.
Cottle claimed the show position in Daryl Saucier's
Chevy-powered DSR Fuel Systems No. 1st
Beast, giving Saucier two cars among the
top three finishers as Saucier also
wrenched Gardner's winning mount.
After starting twelfth, Bryan Clauson outdueled Jon
Stanbrough over the final rounds to claim
fourth in the Keith Kunz Motorsports
Esslinger-powered No. 67 Bullet.
Stanbrough rounded out the top five in the Loyet Motorsports
Esslinger Ford-powered Loyet Landscape
Maintenance No. 05s Spike.
After starting 14th, Kevin Swindell climbed to
seventh by the midway point and diced with
Clauson and Stanbrough over the last half
of the race before settling for sixth.
Relegated to the tail after originally starting 21st,
the 17-year-old Bacon climbed to eighth by
the midway point before falling back
several positions after jumping the turn
four cushion before the lap 33 caution.
Bacon remounted his forward charge
and got back up to seventh by the time the
checkered flag flew, posting the top
passing performance in the feature event
by officially gaining 14 positions.
Two-time and defending race winner Tony Stewart crossed the
stripe eighth after starting 13th,
with TSR teammate and 2005 race winner
Tracy Hines advancing from 16th
to ninth.
Nathan High, the 2007 AMRA
champion, charged from 24th to
tenth in his first career Chili Bowl
championship main event.
Bubba Altig's feature ended before it started.
After advancing to the main event
by virtue of a fourth-place finish in the
second "B" Main, last year's
Cinderella Story of the Chili Bowl
Nationals smacked the turn one wall as the
field warmed up and was unable to take the
green flag.
Eight drivers among Saturday night's finale were making their
initial championship feature event start,
including Swindell, Bacon, High, Levi
Jones (eleventh), Jesse Hockett (12th),
McCarl (19th), Michnowicz (20th)
and Wease (21st).
Saturday's Bass Pro Shops feature action started off with
twin "K" Mains, with Steve Davis
wiring the first one and then Larry
Campbell overtaking Dan Mecum on the
fourth round en route to topping the
second one.
Joey Fabozzi wired the field in the First "J" Main,
with opening lap leader Samantha Taylor
regaining the lead for keeps on the
seventh round of the Second "J"
Main when leader Derrick Myers exited with
mechanical problems.
Jonathan Hendrick took over on lap two to top the First
"I" Main, with Wayne Johnson and
Garry Lee Maier checked out on the field
in the non-stop Second "I" Main,
Andy Martin wrestled the lead from David Cardey on the sixth
lap of the First "H" Main, with
Justin Henderson leading all the way in
the Second "H" Main.
Thomas Meseraull blasted past Glenn Carson on the fourth
circuit on the way to winning the First
"G" Main, while 14-year-old
Coleman Gulick battled past tee shirt clad
veteran Kevin Olson on the eighth lap to
win the Second "G" Main.
Casey Shuman wired the field in "F" Main one, with
Dustin Morgan sweeping past Justin Melton
on the seventh lap to top the Second
"F" Main.
J.J. Yeley raced from 12th to overtake Josh
Richards on the seventh round for the win
in the First "E" Main, with
Ricky Stenhouse, Jr., checking out on the
field to win the Second "E"
Main.
Scott Pierovich led wire-to-wire in the First "D"
Main, as Yeley's past alphabet heroics
couldn't be repeated after hitting the
cone and then later spinning out of
contention. P.J. Jones led all the way in the Second "D" Main,
fending off several challenges from Brad
Sweet.
Don
Droud, Jr., won the First "C" Main after
escaping a twelve-car melee opening lap
melee.
Donnie Ray Crawford paced the
opening five circuits of the second
"C" Main before Levi Jones took
command. But Jones was relegated to second when Terry McCarl raced by
and waved "good-bye" on the 13th
of 15 laps.
Davey Ray and Tony Stewart battled for the lead in the early
laps of the First "B" Main
before Stewart took command, while Kevin
Swindell dominated the Second
"B" Main.
