Clinton, MO -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/01/2017 --The Champion Racing Oil sponsored driver led all but the final handful of laps at the half-mile oval, where he earned a career-best runner-up result during the prestigious event.
"I got a good start and the lead," he said. "We had a caution about halfway. We had a three-second lead and a handful of lapped cars between and both got erased after the caution came out. After restarting I was searching on the race track. It was really slick and wide. I was trying to gauge my speed off lapped car speed to see where the fast line was. I got caught racing with lapped cars."
Starks maintained the lead until Lucas Wolfe drove around him in traffic with only a few laps remaining. The second-place finish was Starks' fifth top five this season.
