Inside Line Promotions – JACKSON, Minn. (July 17, 2020) – Justin Henderson and Tyler Drueke both captured victories on Friday evening during AG Builders Night at Jackson Motorplex.

Henderson garnered his sixth career triumph with the DeKalb/Asgrow Midwest Power Series presented by GRP Motorsports, which co-sanctioned the 360ci sprint cars portion of the program along with the Midwest Sprint Touring Series in a $3,000-to-win event.

Drueke won the Heartland Steel RaceSaver sprint cars presented by Wyffels Hybrids feature to score a $1,000 payout.

Polesitter Terry McCarl led the majority of the 25-lap 360 sprint car main event, but Henderson remained within striking distance. McCarl left the more popular outside racing lane as he dropped to the bottom groove entering turn three on Lap 23 with traffic ahead. It opened the door for Henderson, who maintained his momentum on the cushion and was propelled into the lead exiting turn four. He led the final three laps before enjoying his time in Victory Lane.

“I’m just happy to be in Victory Lane with my family,” he said. “It was like a really slow moving game of chess. It was very fortunate to go our way.”

McCarl edged Lee Grosz for the runner-up position. Jack Dover placed fourth and Derrik Lusk rounded out the top five.

Grosz set quick time in qualifying out of the 32 drivers in attendance before Michael Faccinto, Matt Juhl, Gregg Bakker and Lusk each won a heat race. Mark Toews was the B Main winner.

Drueke outlasted 22 competitors to garner the Heartland Steel RaceSaver sprint cars presented by Wyffels Hybrids win. Bill Johnson hustled from 10th to second with Brandon Allen finishing third, Kade Higday fourth and 15th-starting John Lambertz fifth.

Micah Slendy, Johnny Sullivan and Michael Stien topped the heat races.
