Bryan Hulbert – WHEATLAND, Mo. (September 16, 2021) Rolling into Victory Lane for the second time in his career at the “Diamond of Dirt Tracks,” Arkansas’ Derek Hagar picked up the opening night of the 2021 Jesse Hockett/Daniel McMillin Memorial with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network.

SawBlade.com A-Feature appearance No. 69 for Hagar, the win is his fourth against Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network. He is the 14th different winner of the season.

“I had my doubts there for a little bit,” stated Hagar when asked about his run to the front. “We couldn’t get the engine to run right in the Heat Race and the Qualifier, so we just went back to what we know and that DynoTech was putting some good power down and letting us cut the corner and drive by people.”

An emotional win for the entire team, it was dedicated to his friend Jacob Wilson, who passed away following a traffic accident on September 8, 2021.

“This is a special night for us. We laid a good man to rest yesterday, and he’s riding on the nose wing and the side of the car tonight. His family is here, so it’s awesome to put this thing in Victory Lane.”

Taking the green eighth, Hagar has already worked into the top five on Lap 2. Moving his line around the three-eighths-mile oval, the No. 9jr rolled around Scott Bogucki for second on Lap 8. Reeling in Jeremy Campbell, who took the lead following the second attempt at the start, Hagar began working a diamond through the third and fourth turns.

Getting bite off the exit of the fourth turn with every lap, Derek took the lead away from the No. 10c on Lap 10. Leaving the field to battle amongst themselves, traffic did little to slow Hagar, who made it to the finish with a 6.423-second cushion.

Falling to third until Lap 17, Scott Bogucki worked back into the runner-up spot with Howard Moore racing from 11th to take the final podium step with four laps to run. Jason Martin moved back to fourth after dropping to fifth from most of the A-Feature, with early leader, Jeremy Campbell, rounding out the top five.

Joe B. Miller was sixth, followed by Blake Hahn, who rolled forward 13 positions after having to race his way through the first BMRS B-Feature. Following from 18th, Missouri’s Kyle Bellm made it to eighth, with Matt Covington and Roger Crockett completing the top ten.

Event points at the close of the first night of the Hockett/McMillin Memorial show Derek Hagar on top with 170 points earned. Scott Bogucki (164), Howard Moore (156), Jason Martin (152), and Jeremy Campbell (148) make up the top five. The field runs again on Friday, with all points added together from the two prelim nights to set up Saturday. The top eight in overall points lock into the $10,000 to win A-Feature.
