Strickler second, Krup third in 30-lap main event<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n

An entire family of reptilian gold is headed back to Mooresville, NC, after yet another dominating DIRTcar UMP Modified performance at Volusia Speedway Park from the now seven-time DIRTcar Nationals champion, Nick Hoffman.<\/p>\n

Hoffman scored the win in Saturday\u2019s Gator Championship Feature, the fourth of his career, giving him his seventh-straight Big Gator trophy as points champion of the division. No other driver has won more than two.<\/p>\n

Starting sixth, Hoffman had some work to do to get to the lead. Outside polesitter Kyle Strickler maintained the top spot through the first 11 laps before Hoffman caught him in traffic and blasted by on the bottom out of Turn 2.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got aero-tight a couple of times behind him, and then in lapped traffic too, when we were racing through,\u201d Hoffman said of his chase with Strickler. \u201cI just had to bide my time and slow down. I didn\u2019t want to wear my tires out. We were killing tires earlier, so I didn\u2019t know, being later in the night, how bad tires wear was going to be of an issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

From that point forward, it was all Hoffman\u2019s race to lose. He was never seriously challenged for the lead again.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the battle for second was heating up behind him. Strickler held second for a restart on Lap 13, but Will Krup made the most of the bottom lane that Strickler have him have at the drop of the green, swiping the spot away with a horsepower move down low.<\/p>\n

Krup\u2019s time in second wouldn\u2019t last, however, as Strickler got another chance on a restart at the halfway point. He ripped around the top groove and was able to carry enough momentum to get back around Krup on Lap 16.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Looking back, Krup said he should\u2019ve done more to miss a small patch in Turn 1 that upset the car, costing him some speed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI clipped it a couple times off that restart once I got around him, and [Strickler] was able to roll back around me,\u201d Krup said. \u201cAfter that, I just kinda fell in line and tried to bring home a strong third-place finish.\u201d<\/p>\n

Strickler gave it all he had to catch Hoffman in the final 10 laps but was unable to make up the gap. Hoffman\u2019s lead was as large as four seconds at one point, further showcasing his dominance on the half-mile tracks.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny of the places like this here or Eldora \u2013 those big places that you can just momentum and make speed through the corner \u00ad\u00ad\u2013 I feel like that\u2019s where my car is the best and it\u2019s where I\u2019m the best,\u201d Hoffman said.<\/p>\n

After redrawing the sixth spot on the starting grid, Hoffman knew he was not going to be denied of his fourth Gator Championship Feature win.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven with Kyle starting on the front row, I felt like my racecar was that good,\u201d he said. \u201cI had no doubt in my mind that my racecar was plenty good enough to do this deal from sixth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Strickler crossed the line in second with a car he said he could handle, but just needed more speed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went a completely different direction for the Feature, and I got the feel I needed on the front-end, but we just weren\u2019t stuck enough in the rear of the car,\u201d Strickler said.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Despite his relentless efforts to catch Strickler, Krup came up just a bit short. However, the podium finish goes down in the record books as one of his best-ever finishes in the Gator Championship at Volusia.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the end of the race, I felt like I had a decent chance at [Strickler],\u201d Krup said. \u201cWe kinda got in lapped traffic, but I couldn\u2019t get around him. All-in-all, still a good run.\u201d<\/p>\n
