Jeff Bland in an Upset Win over Levi Jones at Lawrenceburg Speedway
Lawrenceburg, IN - Jeff Bland Jr. of Springville, Ind. led the first seven and the last six laps to score an upset victory in Wednesday night’s 30-lap Chevy Powers “Indiana Sprint Week” feature at the Lawrenceburg Speedway. The win was his first ever in USAC National Sprint Car competition.

He was trailed to the checkered flag by 2. Levi Jones, 3. Damion Gardner, 4. Shane Cottle, 5. Dave Darland, 6. Tracy Hines, 7. Brad Sweet, 8. Brady Bacon, 9. Hunter Scheurenberg, 10. Darren Hagen.
