Inside Line Promotions – BURLINGTON, Tenn. (Sept. 20, 2016) – Brandon Hanks turned his luck around at Lucas Oil Speedway earlier this season.

Hanks scored a victory during a visit in May when the results were a vast improvement compared to several previous races at the 3/8-mile oval in Wheatland, Mo.

“The second-to-last time we were there we won,” he said. “We were able to capitalize on some luck, but every trip before that it seemed like we’ve had generators go out and things happen on the race track. I think that time it forgot which car I was in.”

Hanks is hopeful luck will be on his side when he visits the track this Thursday through Saturday for the Hockett/McMillin Memorial with the Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour.

“We had a really good run and the car was really, really fast there in May so hopefully we can find that again this weekend,” he said. “I look forward to the Hockett/McMillin Memorial. It’s such a nice place. I really enjoy going there. Hopefully we can win one or two of the races. I believe we can. I feel like we have a good enough car. Everything just needs to fall in place and have a little luck on our side.”

Hanks has earned a season-high four feature victories this season, including his first career ASCS National Tour triumph.

SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT – D&B Farms

D&B Farms is a corn and beans farm owned by the Hanks family and it is located in Burlison, Tenn.

“It’s a family business so I need to thank my dad, Ricky Huffman and Jason Honeycutt,” Hanks said. “We all work on the farm together. Without them not only would we not be able to race, but we couldn’t make a living.”

Hanks would also like to thank Performance Powder Coating, Penske Racing Shocks, Wesmar Racing Engines, Walls Paint and Body Shop, R.E. Enterprises, Acme Graphix, Hinchman Racewear, ButlerBuilt Professional Seat Systems and J-R1 for their continued support.
