Those (slower) guys were battling, and I just cut to the outside real quick and [Mitchell] was there … he just snuck up on me and I was like, ‘Oh!’ Thankfully it all worked out and we got this Koehler Motorsports team another win. A big thank you to them and everyone who supports us.Returning to East Alabama Motor Speedway (Phenix City, Ala.) for Friday’s rain-postponed Southern Nationals Series event, Jimmy Owens unloaded the Koehler Motorsports No. 20 machine for a two-day weekend at the track.With his original qualifying lap placing him on the second row for the main event, Owens quickly positioned himself in the runner-up position and pestered race-long leader Carson Ferguson but ultimately settled for a runner-up finish.He trailed Ferguson while Steven Roberts, Dalton Cook, and Donald McIntosh completed the Top-5.After a solid outing on Friday, Jimmy Owens stayed overnight at the track to compete with the Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series for a $10,000 prize on Saturday afternoon.With 27 Late Models signed in, Jimmy won his heat race and drew the pole position in the redraw for the 50-lap main event.
