POSTED 4-12-10 FRANK KIMMEL 50 AT SALEM SPEEDWAY

The Frank Kimmel Street Stock Nationals 50 at Salem Speedway is in books.  It was a beautiful day at Salem, Indiana on Sunday, April 11.  Todd Kempf #19 of Huntingburg, IN. takes the win.  Bowling Green driver Jay Parrish #79 of C & P Racing started mid pack and finished somewhere around 12th.  The results have not been released as of this posting.  I will update the results as soon as they come in.

More on local driver Jay Parrish.  Jay was in the qualifying race on Saturday and lead some of that race until his car had some handling problems.  On Sunday in the Frank Kimmel 50 lap race Jay ran really good but near the end started to slow down as his car developed a vibration causing him to brush the wall.  Jay finished the race around 12th place.  After the race and bringing the car to his pits his crew found that the bell housing had moved and maybe the engine had also moved.  This problem may have gave Jay his ill handling car.  After all was said and done Jay did a very good job on the very fast high bank track of Salem Speedway.  Congratulations Jay!
