Wampler
Posts Sixth-Place Result in Return to
Red River Speedway
Inside Line
Promotions - WICHITA FALLS, Texas (Sept.
21, 2014) - Cody Wampler set the
foundation for a solid finish to the
season with a top 10 last Friday.
Wampler, who
finally ironed out a carburetor issue
that had plagued his team throughout the
summer, finished sixth at Red River
Speedway. It marked his seventh top 10
of the season.
"We got our
carburetor issues fixed and it's running
great now," he said. "Now we can make
some headway on the setup and learn some
stuff. I'm pretty excited from that
standpoint. We can really focus on
getting the car where it needs to be and
making the right adjustments. I'm really
optimistic for the last couple of
races."
Wampler kicked
off last Friday's champ sprints race by
finishing second in his heat race.
"We led the
first few laps," he said. "We had Robert
Sellers, who has dominated down there,
in our heat. I think him or his son has
won every night there but one. He got by
me coming out of turn four and we ended
up running second. I felt like we were
pretty good."
That earned
Wampler a spot in the feature redraw. He
pulled the No. 2 in the random draw to
line up on the outside of the front row
for the main event.
"They had a lot
of cars in a couple of other classes,"
he said. "The track held up pretty good
for a while. Our car just wasn't near
tight enough. I tried a couple of
different things. I tried a bigger left
rear tire than we've ran there. I tend
to have a tendency to be too tight
getting in to the corners. I had done
some things to keep the car free. The
track slicked off and I was too free. I
couldn't get into the corner hard enough
on the top to carry the momentum."
Wampler dropped
to fourth place on the opening lap and
he lost a couple of additional positions
throughout the main event to finish
sixth.
He will take
this weekend off before heading to
Lawton Speedway in Lawton, Okla., on
Oct. 3-4 for the Winter Nationals.
"I'm pretty
excited about getting back to Lawton,"
he said. "That should be a good
weekend."
