Nascar Star and Byron Michigan native Erik Jones (Nascar Driver for Petty GMS #43) takes Dicks Auto Parts to Victory Lane!

After a 100-lap race where Erik led about 60 laps. He parked the Wimmer Motorsports/Dicks Auto Parts/ Erik Jones Foundation Chevy in Victory Lane at Indianapolis Raceway Park for the Fireball 100. Erik took the lead around lap 35 and never looked back despite many challenges from fellow NASCAR Cup star William Byron (Nascar Driver for Hendrick Motorsports 24). 

“That was a lot of fun”, remarked a very happy Jones in victory lane. “This is such a great place to race, there are so many different groves that you can use to make your car work. William definitely put the pressure on us, especially on the restarts, but I was able to make the high groove work and we got the win. I want to thank Wimmer Motorsports for giving me a great car and for all their hard work to do this deal. I really enjoy racing these Super Late Models and this win comes at a great time!”
