Jason Covert Impressive as 2010 Season Gets Underway

York Haven, PA (April 13, 2010) Barry Klinedinst Motorsports and the three time Mid-Atlantic Championship Series (MACS) Champion Jason Covert have opened up the 2010 season the same way they closed the 2009 season, in victory lane.

Jason has started three events so far in 2010; two at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, PA and one at Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, MD, and Covert has already picked up two wins and a second to start the new season. The first win came at Williams Grove on March 26 after Jason started ninth in the caution-free event but battled his way to the front and past Daryl Hills to capture his first win of the young season.

After taking the next weekend off to test at Virginia Motor Speedway, the BK Motorsports team entered the first two Three State Flyers series events at ‘The Grove’ and Hagerstown this past weekend. Covert again had to start mid-pack (tenth) at Williams Grove but charged his way to the second spot by the 14th circuit and was gaining on race leader Jamie Lathroum but ran out of laps falling 2.72 seconds short on lap 35 to come home second in the $3,000 to-win event. The following night, Hagerstown hosted its own $3,000 to-win event, one in which Jason dominated. Covert won his heat race, won the dash, and led all 35 laps of the A-Main to capture the checkered flag. “The credit has to go to the crew, my owner and my wife,” said Covert in victory lane. “I want to dedicate this to my wife. We lost one of her grandma’s while the other grandma was in the hospital last Saturday. I left here while watching so this is for her. I told her I‘d try to not let her down tonight. It’s been a pretty hard week for everybody in our family.”

Covert also has brand new T-Shirts on sale for the 2010 season. Two different designs by KRS Graphics are available for this year. A white T-Shirt that features the classic yellow #43A and some of the major wins and championships Jason has won in his career and a new black ‘Covert Operation Tour’ T-Shirt. #43A License Plates and Decals are also available. You can pick up your Jason Covert apparel at the BK Motorsports hauler at any event they attend or online through Jason’s wife Jaynelle via e-mail at jaynellecovert@hotmail.com.

This weekend the team plans on heading to the much anticipated $25,000 to-win ‘Commonwealth 100’ at Jamaica, VA’s Virginia Motor Speedway sanctioned by the World of Outlaws Late Model Series on Friday and Saturday, April 16 and 17. The team will then prepare for a pair of $10,000 to-win Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events at Bedford Speedway in Bedford, PA and Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, MD on Friday and Saturday, April 23 and 24. The team will then help open up the O’Reilly All Star Late Model Series season with a trip to Lernerville Speedway for the $5,000 to-win ‘Showdown in Sarvertown’ on Friday, April 30 and KC Raceway in Chillicothe, OH for the ‘Classic’ paying $10,000 to the winner.

Jason Covert Ready to Open Season at Williams Grove Speedway

York Haven, PA (March, 2010) Barry Klinedinst Motorsports and the three time Mid-Atlantic Championship Series (MACS) Champion Jason Covert have been busy preparing for the 2010 racing season, a season that will kick off this Friday, March 26 at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, PA.

The BK Motorsports Team has diligently been working on a whole new shock program featuring JRI Shocks out of Mooresville, NC for the 2010 season, something Covert is extremely excited about. ‘This was an opportunity for us to do something new,’ Covert said. ‘Going with JRI Shocks has been a pretty easy transition so far. Sammy Speaks from Precision Suspension has been great to work with during this move and the shocks were great when we practiced at Hagerstown last week. They have a different feel to them and it’s going to take a little adjusting on my part as a driver, but I don’t think we’ll miss a beat with the new JRI Shocks.'

BK Motorsports would also like to welcome Trick as a new product sponsor for the upcoming season. ‘I can’t say it enough, without our sponsors and our product sponsors, none of us racers could do what we love to do.’ Jason continued, ‘From Rocket Chassis, Quarter Master, Pre-Mach, Inc., Red Wing Shoes, Jason at JNJ Motorsports Media, Robbie Allen Enterprises, American Racer Tires, and everyone else that helps us out, it’s just an honor to be associated with them all and we thank all of them for their support.’

This upcoming Friday, March 26 Jason will be in action at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, PA. Next weekend the team will head to Virginia Motor Speedway for an open practice session before making their way back Williams Grove on Friday, April 9 and Hagerstown Speedway on Saturday, April 10for a pair of Three State Flyer events. Then it’s back to Jamaica, VA’s Virginia Motor Speedway for the much anticipated, $25,000 to-win ‘Commonwealth 100’ sanctioned by the World of Outlaws Late Model Series on Friday and Saturday, April 16 and 17. The team will then prepare for a pair of $10,000 to-win Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series events at Bedford Speedway in Bedford, PA and Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, MD on Friday and Saturday, April 23 and 24.

Covert has captured a stout nine wins on his way to 30 top-ten finishes and an astounding 24 top-five’s. Jason caught fire in July after winning his first ever Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series event at Ohio’s Muskingum County Speedway picking up wins at Hagerstown Speedway, Williams Grove Speedway, Allegany County Speedway, and Hesston Speedway. Covert has already won $20,000 in the month of October and would like to add another $10,000 this weekend at Hagerstown where he’s won five times this season.

‘Finishing off the season with a win at Hagerstown would be the icing on the cake really,’ Jason said from his home in York Haven, PA. ‘Barry and the guys have given me a great car all year long but without the support of our sponsors we couldn’t do this, so I have to thank them. Hoghead (Robbie Allen) has been a big help to our team, with him, Hershey Racing Engines, American Race Tires, and Rocket Chassis things have been good this year.’

‘We certainly don’t want 2009 to end but at the same time we are looking forward to getting all of our equipment back in line for 2010,’ Covert mentioned, ‘my work is going to have a lot to do with our 2010 season. We’re going to take a look at all the schedules when they come out and make a decision then on what we’re going to do for next season.’

Jason Covert Gets Emotional Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Win in Ohio!

York Haven, PA (July 8, 2009) Barry Klinedinst Motorsports and the three time and defending Mid-Atlantic Championship Series (MACS) Champion Jason Covert, had a short stay at Lernerville Speedway during the Firecracker 100 weekend while during the rescheduled ‘Showdown in Sarvertown’ on Thursday, June 25th, Jason’s motor went sour sending the BK Motorsports team home for the weekend without even competing in the Firecracker 100. Covert was credited with a 20th place finish.

The following weekend turned out to be much better for Jason and the team as they made their way west for the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series sanctioned ‘Crenos 50’ at Muskingum County Speedway in Zanesville, OH on Friday, July 3. Covert won his heat race which included such drivers as Ray Cook, Don O’Neal, Steve Shaver, and Donnie Moran and went on to start third in the 50-lap main event.

Jason and his Barry Klinedinst owned Pre-Mach, Inc. / Red Wing Shoes / Hershey’s Racing Engines / Rocket Chassis Monte Carlo #43A took the lead from California’s Eric Jacobson on the third lap and pulled away from the rest of the field. Covert maneuvered his way through traffic masterfully and withstood three caution flags to collect his first Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series win and the cool $10,000 that came with it. Jason was extremely happy and emotional in victory lane, ‘I can’t believe I finally won a Lucas Oil race, I’ve dreamt about this for a long time, the type of drivers who were here tonight, man I don’t know what to say except I wish my dad was here to see this. I want to thank my car owner Barry Klinedinst, my crew, Robbie Allen, American Racer Tires and Rocket Chassis everything was exceptional tonight and thanks to the fans for coming here to watch us race, I don’t race for a living, we don’t get to travel a lot, so that’s why it’s satisfying to win this race here tonight.’

The BK Motorsports Team was scheduled to be in competition at Portsmouth Raceway Park in Portsmouth, OH for the $10,000 to-win, MACS sanctioned ‘Pepsi 75’ but rain forced the postponement of the event until Saturday, August 1.

This upcoming Saturday, July 11, the BK Motorsports Team will be in action at Hagerstown Speedway for Ernie D’s 25-lap Late Model Special paying $2,500 to the winner. The following weekend the boys will head to Bedford Speedway in Bedford, PA and Winchester Speedway in Winchester, VA on Friday, July 17 and Saturday, July 18 for a pair of Three State Flyers Series races. The rain-delayed Three State Flyers Series event from June, 20th will also be run at Winchester Speedway in conjunction with the regularly scheduled July 18th event.
