The Casey’s sponsored car of Brian Brown was the winning car of night two of the 53rd Annual F-V-P Knoxville Nationals last night. Brown grabbed the lead from Roger Crockett on lap three and led the rest of the way. Brown sliced his way through lapped traffic and won by just under one second. Kerry Madsen was second, Kevin Swindell was third with Roger Crockett and Joey Saldana completing the top five. With the top five coupled with his quick time last night, Saldana will start on the pole for Saturday’s championship race. Saldana told KNIA/KRLS Sports his owner Dan Motter was the one who believed in him from the beginning. The top 16 in points are now locked in to Saturday A-Main with Saldana on the pole and Brian Brown alongside in the front row. 360 Nationals Winner Shane Stewart will start third with Justin Henderson starting fourth. Ten drivers also chose to line up in the first five rows of the B-Main on Saturday including reigning Knoxville Nationals Winner Donny Schatz, who will start fourth in the B.
