30-7-2008

After enjoying an impressive trip thus far, Australian Steve Lines is hoping to continue that success when he contests this weekend’s ‘360’ Knoxville Nationals at Knoxville Raceway (Knoxville, IA).

Running in the ‘360’ American Sprint Car Series (ASCS) Rebel Region, Lines has so far recorded two feature race wins and has recorded multiple Top 5 results also driving the Jeff McCall owned # 23 JSM Enterprises backed J&J.

This weekend at the ‘360’ Knoxville Nationals, however, will certainly be a big task for Lines, and he has set his goal at qualifying for the feature race on Saturday night.

“It’s going to be tough, that’s for sure, you are going to have the best of best drivers competing in this event, so that is going to be a challenge to say the least,” Lines commented.

“If I can get a good run in qualifying on Friday night and then do well my heat race I’m hoping I can do enough to make the feature race line up.

“Running at Knoxville Raceway is also exciting, as it’s regarded as the best track in the world, and I cannot to go out there and give it my best shot.”

Lines will compete on the Friday night’s (August 1) qualifying for the ‘360’ Knoxville Nationals in order to make it through to the feature race the following night.
