Darren Miller In WDRL Weekend  Action


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

 April 30, 2007 

(CHADWICK, IL) - Darren Miller drove his Hawkeye Trucking, Graphic Arts Express, McLaughlin Freight Services, Ideal Ready Mix Ford Taurus from the tail of the field to the front in two separate WDRL events last weekend. 

Beginning Friday night at Knoxville (IA) Raceway, Miller lined up in 20th position for the feature event after encountering power steering problems during his heat race.  Quickly moving to the front at the drop of the green, Miller advanced to 10th by the third lap and passed pole sitter Chad Simpson for the lead a handful of laps later.  However, contact with Simpson after the pass forced Miller into the outer wall where the 32D received major damage to the right rear of the car, causing Miller to retire to a 21st place finish. 

Saturday night at Freeport (IL) Raceway Park, Miller lined up on the outside front row for the feature event after 2nd place finishes in both his PolyDome Qualifier and the Iowa-Illinois Taylor Insulation Pole Dash.  Miller found himself driving from the tail of the field again after a lap one contact with pole sitter John Kaanta flattened his left rear tire.  Methodically advancing through the field throughout the race, Miller eventually finished 3rd in the 40 lap event. 

The 32D team will compete next weekend, May 4th & 5th, in the “3rd Annual 99” held at Kentucky Lake Motor Speedway, Calvert City KY.  For more information see http://www.klmsllc.com/
