*Velasquez the URSS Victor at DCRP!*

Lonnie Wheatley, DODGE CITY, Kan. (June 29, 2013) – Taylor Velasquez took
quick advantage of a Zac Taylor midrace miscue to race into the lead and
charged on to United Rebel Sprint Series victory lane in Saturday night’s
25-lap feature event atop the 3/8-mile Dodge City Raceway Park clay oval.

With Velasquez starting the URSS feature outside the second row, front row
outside starter Zac Taylor outdueled pole starter Darren Bowman for the
lead on the opening round and set the pace in the early going with
Velasquez battling past Bowman for second on the eighth lap only to have
the move negated for a turn four tangle that eliminated Luke Cranston and
Barry Crane.

Velasquez, a 22-year-old from Turpin, OK, made quick work of Bowman for
second on the restart and set his sights on rookie shoe Taylor. Reeling
Taylor in, the door opened for Velasquez when Taylor nearly looped it
coming off turn four on the 13th circuit. While Taylor saved it, Velasquez
beat him in the dash to turn one and led the rest of way to snare the win
aboard the Fronk Oil/Velasquez Pumping No 21x.

“I should thank him for that one,” Velasquez said of Taylor’s miscue.

Current URSS points leader Ray Seemann worked his way up to second over the
final portion of the race but had nothing for Velasquez, with Ty Williams
claiming the show position. C.J. Johnson climbed from tenth to fourth,

with Taylor slipping to fifth in the final rounds.
