Inside Line Promotions – NORFOLK, Neb. (May 21, 2024) – Jack Dover earned his first season-opening win since 2021 last Saturday during the 360 Sprints Special hosted by Off Road Speedway.

Dover was dominant during the Gunderson Racing Inc. Midwest Sprint Touring Series event as he hustled from sixth to second place in a heat race and from sixth to win the feature.

“Confidence is everything,” he said. “The last time we drove this car we won and I knew it’d be a good piece. We were quickest in hot laps. In the heat race we were able to maneuver wherever we needed. I knew we had a good shot at winning it.

“I was high-points guy in the feature redraw. This year you can opt to start sixth for an extra $200 so I did that. I rode around in fourth for a few laps. On a restart I got to third and about 10 laps in the guy in second got over the cushion so I snuck by him. I ran down the leader and got by him when a caution came out. I set him up to go down low on the restart. He went down there and got tight and pushed up the track. I did a diamond move to get by him.”

Dover made the race-winning move with approximately eight laps remaining and he pulled away for his sixth victory in 11 career starts at the track. He has now finished in the top 10 in every start at Off Road Speedway with 10 top-five outings.

“It feels really good to get back in the car,” Dover said following his first race since Oct. 14 of last year. “I was a little nervous I was going to be slow, but it was like riding a bike. You don’t forget how to do it. The car was fast right out of the trailer.”

Dover is hopeful to announce his next race within the next couple of weeks.
