Win #5 with FVP National Sprint League Nets $5,000 for Danny Lasoski!
by Bill Wright
Greenwood, NE, July 30, 2015 – Danny Lasoski grabbed the lead late to capture his series leading fifth win with the FVP National Sprint League Thursday on night one of the “Road to Knoxville” at I-80 Speedway near Greenwood, Nebraska. Lasoski’s win was worth $5,000 aboard the Big Game Motorsports #2. The event was held in conjunction with the Lucas Oil ASCS National Series. NSL member Ian Madsen won that event.
Jamie Veal, making his second NSL start of the season, jumped out to the early lead in the 25-lap feature from his pole position ahead of Terry McCarl and California NSL first-timer Willie Croft. Lasoski shot by Croft on lap five to move into the top three.
Paul Nienhiser stopped on the backstretch, bringing out the yellow flag on lap six. Veal led McCarl, Lasoski, Croft and Bill Balog back to green flag racing. Two laps later, Lasoski shot by McCarl for second and began his pursuit of the leader.
The lead pair wrestled lapped traffic. With the bottom of turns one and two coming in, Veal shot to the high side on lap 17. Lasoski pounced on the opportunity and used the low side to cruise to the point.
The last eight laps, Lasoski went uncontested to win over Veal, McCarl, Balog and Croft. Matt Juhl posted a season best sixth place finish, while Bryan Clauson passed Ian Madsen in the final corner for seventh. KSE Hard-charger Tim Kaeding and Mark Dobmeier rounded out the top ten.
Lasoski set quick time, while Madsen, Juhl and Veal won heat races. If Madsen can win both the ASCS and NSL features Friday night, he will garner a $10,000 bonus from I-80 Speedway, Phil Durst of Durst Motorplex and Jim Huffman of Huffman Productions.
“(Veal) was doing a good job,” said Lasoski in Victory Lane. “He was running where I wanted to be. He got to a lapped car and got held up a little bit. Guy (Forbrook) gave me a good car. It was operating top, bottom or middle, it didn’t matter.”
“We were right there all night,” said Veal. “We had a good car all night. We had a good run in second. We’ll take that and come back tomorrow night. (Filling in for Jason Johnson with the Outlaws) I learned to adapt to tracks very quickly. Thanks to the guys for having a good car and hopefully, we’ll be one better tomorrow.”
“We were a little tight back there,” said McCarl. “We got the lead on the first start and they called it back. That would have been big for us. The car came in later in the race, and we started running them back down. We were still a little tight in dirty air. If we were in clean air, we’d have been o.k. It was a great racetrack. I’d like to thank the Kosiski’s and Phil Durst for putting this on. This has really turned into one of our favorite racetracks. For a bigger track, it’s a really racy joint. They know how to get it right.”
The “Road to Knoxville” continues tomorrow night, Friday, July 31 at the I-80 Speedway. The 30-lap feature will pay $10,000 to the winner! For more information on the FVP National Sprint League, visit www.NationalSprintLeague.com!

How is it that Veal started on the pole and Juhl started 4th in the A main when they qualified 13th and 14th (respectively)? I know they won their heats, but so did Madsen and he qualified 6th quick. Was there some sort of invert or pill draw? What am I missing here?
It's one of the only complaints I have for the NSL thus far, inconsistency when determining the A main line ups.

Drivers garner points in qualifying and by their heat finishes. The top eight in those points redraw. Everyone else lines up by their times.

I hope they get rid of the redraw and go to a dash, just my opinion. To me the dash format makes more sense and is much easier to follow the show.

Back in the day they used to have trophy dashes but now that we got wings and $50,000 motors we cant afford it.

Seems car count should be a more pressing concern.

Personally I don't like dashes as all that does is takes away a pass that would have happend in the A main but instead happens in the dash and the fast guys then start in the front.

What's the real difference? Most dashes are lined up by a draw. Get rid of all draws. A quick way to get rid of any hint of sandbagging in qualifying and make better racing would be to line up the A Mains by either money earned for the season or the points standings, and invert the top 6 or 8. Would probably also tighten up the points races. Heats would still be lined up by qualifying times.

How many cars do you want or expect.
Another case of someone findining something to complain about. How many cars were at last year's NSL 410 show?
That is right........

With the dash being consisted of the top 8 points getters for the night and points from qualifying and your heat they tried to eliminate sandbagging all together. I think the system works pretty well for eliminating sandbagging. The system is even weighted a little heavier on qualifying times than heat finish IMO.
As for the draw I wish they ran a dash with simple inverts in the top 8 points earners of 4, 6, and 8. The only reason is so the dude can draw the front row. He is on this year but he has also had luck. Brown when he has a good night will draw a 7 or 8. A little less luck and a little more of true invert. Little things that I am fine if they don't change. I still think we see great racing at the NSL shows!

At least the NSL redraw is equitable.
The WoO format of the pill draw with one 0 pill and three 4's and three 6's is a huge mathematical advantage to drivers who timed 3rd and 4th. They are guaranteed to start at least in the second row of the dash.
