Story By: TYLER ALTMEYER / BROCK ZEARFOSS RACING – JONESTOWN, PA – Brock Zearfoss and Brock Zearfoss Racing put together a sound performance in Jackson Motorplex’ 45th Annual Jackson Nationals on August 17-19, not only qualifying for the $25,000-to-win main event on Saturday night, but ultimately highlighting the week with a ninth-place run during preliminary competition on Friday, August 18.
The Jonestown, Pennsylvania, native and former Outlaw winner started sixth on the A-Main grid, maintaining his place within the frontrunners to knock out his sixth top-ten result of the season. The “Jonestown Jet” remains ninth in the overall World of Outlaws championship standings.
“It’s been a very competitive month, but that’s what it’s all about,” Zearfoss explained. “The Jackson Nationals ranks right there at the top with some of our other crown jewel events. It’s a race everyone wants to win, so to have the opportunity to start tenth is pretty special. I wish we could have ended a little further up in the running order, but this is a good momentum kicker for our upcoming trek through North Dakota.”
