On Friday, May 30, 2008, Brent Dixon and the
number 1 team scored their second victory of the 2008 season by
picking up the $2,000-to-win feature event at the Lavonia
Speedway in Lavonia, GA. Brent qualified in the second
position with a time of 15.74 seconds, which earned him the
second starting position of the night's 30-lap feature event.
Dixon quickly captured the lead position
at the drop of the green flag pushing Frankie Beard in the
number F21 car to the second position. As the laps wore
on, Dixon hit a rut in the track and pushed him up the track
allowing Travis Pennington in the 01 machine to make a pass for
the lead. Dixon was able to re-capture the lead after
Pennington suffered problems with his 01 machine. Dixon
went unchallenged for the remainder of the event and picked up
the $2,000 payday.
Brent Dixon and the number 1 team will
compete tonight (Saturday, May 31, 2008) at Hartwell Speedway in
Hartwell, GA for the Carolina Clash event paying
$4,000-to-win.

Brent
Dixon and the number 1 team competed at Toccoa Speedway on
Saturday, April 19, 2008. After having problems with the
car at the OSAS event at Toccoa Speedway on April 12, 2008,
Brent decided to test out the car this past weekend. Brent
began the night by setting fast time in his Swiftco Motorsports
number 1 machine with a time of 12.33 seconds giving him the
pole position for the night's super late model feature event
paying $1,000 to win.
After the green flag dropped for the
feature event, Dixon fell to second in turn one and two as Bruce
Taylor (8) was able to gain the top position on the track.
On lap 3 of the 30-lap feature event, Dixon took the lead from
Taylor and dominated the remainder of the event at Toccoa
Speedway to pick up the win in the super late model division.
On Saturday, April 26, 2008, the number 1
team will head to Traveler's Rest Speedway in Traveler's Rest,
SC for the $4,000-to-win Carolina Clash event.

Dixon Suffers Injury at Lavonia Speedway

|
Brent Dixon showed up at Lavonia Speedway
on Saturday, March 22, 2008 for the $5,000-to-win O'Reilly
Southern All Stars event; however, while unloading the car Brent
suffered from a pulled muscle in his ribs. Dixon, who had
recently "unofficially" set a new track record during
a practice session was geared up to compete and was looking
forward to a good run at Lavonia Speedway, but after suffering
the injury he decided that it was not a good idea to compete in
Saturday's event.
Brent is currently resting and hopes to
get back into his number 1 machine soon and continue onward with
the 2008 season. The next scheduled event for the 2008
season for Brent and the number 1 team is the Carolina Clash
event on March 29, 2008 at Gordon Park Speedway in Grovetown,
GA. Brent says that he still plans to compete in the March
29, 2008 event, but will make the determination as the event
gets closer.
