Holman Victorious at Pro Cup's Lonesome Pine America 200

Caleb Holman wins the Salute to America 200 presented by Food Country USA at Lonesome Pine Raceway.

It is Holman's second win of the 2011 season and seventh of his Pro Cup career.

Holman on his win: “I’m really excited. We got a one-two finish for Henderson Racing. I’m excited we didn’t have to wreck anybody. After the last race, I’m happy to have a quiet day, collect money and go to the house.”

Holman's teammate Forrest Reynolds finishes second. Reynolds: “I’m fired up. This is awesome. Having Caleb (Holman) around to show me how to drive these cars really helps. The car wouldn’t stick on the bottom, so (going high) was the plan. We shot up there and picked up some speed, so we stayed up there.”

Blake Jones captures third. Referring to an early pit stop during the race where he overshot his pit, Jones said, “I hate that I did that to the team. I think we had one of the best cars out there. When I hit the pit stall, my brake pedal went to the floor. I had a left rear tire going down at the end, but I moved around and found something. I can’t thank Kirk enough. It’s a really good racecar. More than everything, I’d just like to thank God. And let’s remember the people who died 10 years ago.”

Polesitter Jeff Agnew and JP Morgan round out the top 5. Complete race results will be posted as soon as possible.
