\"DIRTcarBarberville,FL<\/strong> \u2014 BARBERVILLE, FL – February 8, 2010 – Jared Landers started dead last and charged all the way through the 28-car field to win the Gator Championship for DIRTcar UMP Modifieds on Monday night during the 39th<\/sup> Annual DIRTcar Nationals By University of Northwestern Ohio at Volusia Speedway Park.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been off here the first three nights,\u201d lamented Landers, who collected the $5,000 top prize. \u201cI don\u2019t know what to say, I just have to thank all the guys in the pits who have stuck with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Landers, of Batesville, Ark., had been quiet in this DIRTcar Nationals campaign after capturing 5 of 7 features in 2009, but he slowly crept forward after UMP Regional Director Sam Driggers relegated Landers to the tail of the field for being late to staging. By lap 25, Landers had caught leader Stormy Scott, of Las Cruces, N.M., and stormed past on the outside for the lead.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m out of breath, but I want to thank Sam for making me go to the back and work my way back up here, because I knew I could do it,\u201d Landers said. \u201cHe made me do what I had to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Landers would go on to lead the final five laps unchallenged on his way to his second \u2018The Gator Championship\u2019 in as many years.<\/p>\n

Scott, 20, settled for second, the second time he had been overtaken in the closing laps during the DIRTcar Nationals By UNOH to finish as a runner-up.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe DIRTcar UMP tires, we don\u2019t get to race on those but once a year and this car was pretty well new when we got down here,\u201d Scott said. \u201cWe\u2019re still really happy with our performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scott outdistanced previous night winner Austin Dillon, of Welcome, N.C., who fought off challenges from fourth finishing Jacob Hawkins of Fairmont, W.Va.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a good run for us even though we weren\u2019t as good as we wanted to be,\u201d said Dillon, who is NASCAR car owner Richard Childress\u2019 grandson. \u201cIt was a cool race.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hawkins and Ken Schrader rounded out the top five in a field that also included former UMP National Champion Denny Schwartz and NASCAR stars Kenny Wallace and Clint Bowyer.<\/p>\n

Four last chance B-Mains preceded The Gator Championship in which only winners transferred into the main event. Jason Hughes, of Westville, Okla., would claim the first of four while Dale Mathison, of Clearwater, Minn., turned back Clint Bowyer\u2019s last ditch effort to earn a spot in \u2018The Gator\u2019 during B-Main 2. Ty Dillon, of Welcome, N.C., along with Peyton Taylor, of Batesville, Ark., would go on to claim the final two spots of \u2018The Gator\u2019 field.<\/p>\n
