Inside Line Promotions – JACKSON, Minn. (June 28, 2019) – Carson Macedo officially led the distance of the 30-lap World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series main event on Friday evening during the 41st annual AGCO Jackson Nationals, but the race at Jackson Motorplex was anything but simple.

Macedo held off multiple bids for the lead and a slew of slide job attempts from Daryn Pittman and Logan Schuchart to score his second triumph of the season. Macedo joined Heartland Steel RaceSaver sprint cars presented by Wyffels Hybrids feature winner Bill Johnson as drivers who were victorious during the second round of the event. The AGCO Jackson Nationals finale is Saturday with hot laps planned for 7 p.m.

Macedo garnered the pole position for the A Main after winning the dash. He quickly took the top spot once the green flag waved on the non-stop main event. Macedo entered traffic around Lap 8 and things got extremely dicey during the final dozen laps.

With 12 laps to go Schuchart slid Macedo for the lead in turns one and two, but Macedo returned the move in turns three and four, edging Schuchart at the start/finish line by 0.055 of a second. It was the tightest move of the race for Macedo, who not only overcame close racing with Schuchart and Pittman but thick traffic as well.

“We raced each other pretty hard,” Macedo said. “My guys are doing a great job. We got into the dash after a tough heat race. We picked off laps from there.”

Pittman and Schuchart waged war in the final handful of laps for the runner-up position with Pittman coming out on top.

“Our car is really good,” Pittman said. “Carson did a great job. He got through traffic really well.”

Schuchart rounded out the podium.

“Carson ran a great race and picked his lines good,” he said. “He’s really tough and so is Daryn and all these guys out here.”

Brad Sweet, who won the AGCO Jackson Nationals opener on Thursday, finished fourth with Ian Madsen rounding out the top five.

David Gravel and Madsen set quick time during their qualifying groups to kick off the action. Gravel, Schuchart, Madsen and Pittman were the heat race winners. Tasker Phillips claimed the C Main and Jason Sides won the Last Chance Showdown. Shane Stewart was the Hard Charger Award winner after maneuvering from 11th to seventh.

Johnson led all 20 laps to capture the Heartland Steel RaceSaver sprint cars presented by Wyffels Hybrids feature event a night after he finished second.

“I’ve been waiting for this win for a long time,” he exclaimed in Victory Lane after winning by 2.497 seconds.

John Lambertz was the runner up with Jesse Lindberg advancing from 10th to third. Kaleb Johnson placed fourth and Dusty Ballenger was fifth.

Lambertz, Kaleb Johnson and Clayton Christensen each won a heat race. Monty Ferriera was the B Main winner.

There are plenty of activities on Saturday for fans to partake in around the Jackson Motorplex facility, including:

The Lion’s Pancake Breakfast is from 8 a.m. to noon. The Huskies Strength and Conditioning 5k starts at 9 a.m. The Jackson Racing Hall of Fame exhibit inside the red building runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. A bean bag tournament at the beer garden begins at 2 p.m. There is also a Meet-and-Greet of several track Hall of Fame members at 2 p.m. behind the main grandstand.
