MALDEN, MO (September 12) - Defending Parts Plus United Sprint Car Series Missouri State Champions Champion, Tim Crawley from Benton Arkansas drove the Boatersports sponsored David McCarver powered Ward Racing #88 to victory lane in the 30-lap Missouri State championship main event on Friday night at Malden Speedway. It was Crawley's eighth feature win of the season in the Parts Plus USCS Outlaw Thunder Tour series this season and his fourth win-in-a-row.

After starting next to K&N Pole Award recipient Derek Hagar from Marion, Arkansas in the front row, Crawley took command of the point on lap one exiting turn two. He then raced around the top of the immaculately prepared
3/8 mile clay oval to victory lane for the win. Crawley survived four caution or red flag periods and was followed across the line by seven-time Parts Plus USCS series National Champion Terry Gray from Bartlett, Tennessee. Gray was driving with a broken left foot sustained last Saturday when the Winters U-Joint in his car shattered.

Derek Hagar who was the 2006 USCS Rookie of the Year, finished in third place after spinning earlier in the race while in the runner-up position and losing at least a half dozen positions. The 2007 USCS Rookie of the Year, Don Young from Bartlett, Tennessee finished in fourth place. The 2000 Missouri State Champion Marshall Skinner from West Memphis, Arkansas chased Young home in the fifth position.


Another talented young gun, Dustin Barks from Farmington, Missouri led the balance of the 21-car field with a sixth place finish. The 2008 Rookie of the Year, Anthony Nicholson from Bartlett, Tennessee followed Barks in seventh place. Veteran sprint car driver, Wade Oliver from Southaven, Mississippi finished in the eighth position. Current USCS Rookie points leader, Justin Carver from Drummonds, Tennessee finished ninth. Fourteen year-old Scott Hensley from Olive Branch, Mississippi rounded out the top ten.

Tim Crawley also won the evenings six cars, six laps Parts Plus Power Dash.
He then won the Engler Machine and Tool First Heat. Derek Hagar captured the Butlerbuilt Second Heat Race. Dustin Barks won the Bar's Leaks Third Heat race. Runner-up Terry Gray passed seven cars in the main event to garner the Lunati Crank It Up Award.
