Toledo ARCA Wrap: Mason Mingus

Mason Mingus

Mason Mingus and his Win-Tron Racing team stacked up another runner-up finish in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards Sunday afternoon at Toledo Speedway for the running of the Menards 200 presented by Federated Car Care.

The superb performance with their #32 Diamond Equipment/Call 811 Before You Dig Chevrolet Impala has further stretched a spectacular start to the season for the Mooresville NC based team which now includes one pole, three top-fives and five top-10 finishes.

More importantly though, the Brentwood TN native was able to drop 10 points from his deficit to nine-time ARCA champion Frank Kimmel in the race for the coveted series championship.

Under the direction of former ARCA Racing Series championship crew chief Mark Rette, the 18-year old not surprisingly showed speed from the drop of the green flag in practice. Posting the seventh and fifth spots respectively in the two sessions leading up to qualifying, Mingus netted his quickest lap of the week, placing him third on the starting grid, but also earned five crucial championship points.

From the drop of the green flag, Mingus had a very competitive car. He steadily held his own ground inside the top-five until the first round of pit stops occurred approaching lap 80.

During his stop, Mingus lost a few positions after being blocked into his stall by another competitor. The high school student restarted the event in fifth.

By the halfway mark, Mingus had worked his way back into the fourth spot, before making his final trip to pit road with 75 laps remaining.

Once again, Mingus would be blocked by the competitor ahead of them. This time, Mingus lost more positions than he bargained for, dropping four spots to eighth on the impending restart.

Patiently, Mingus hustled his way back through the field and marched his way back into the top-three with 38 laps remaining. The SCOTT Rookie of the Year contender was content to finish his second Toledo Speedway event in the third spot, but when second-place runner Grant Enfinger lost a tire within the final 10 laps of the race, Mingus now found himself riding in second and trailing first place by nearly six seconds.

Although he prayed for a caution, it would never come and he eventually ran out of laps to catch race winner Ken Schrader. Still, the rising star was pleased with his team’s run.

“I’m real happy with second,” said Mingus. “Everyone on this Win-Tron Racing team did a fantastic job all weekend long and I couldn’t be more proud. I was hoping for a caution when Grant (Enfinger) had his issues, but it just never materialized. Still, we gained some more ground on Frank (Kimmel) and were able to have a strong showing for everyone with Ohio 811, who were cheering us on from the stands." (5/20/2013)(Win-Tron Racing PR)
