\"2009Barberville, FL<\/strong> \u2014 Can Jared Landers be stopped? The 26\u2010year\u2010old again was the class of the UMP DIRTcar Modified field on Night Seven of the Alltel DIRTcar Nationals by UNOH at Volusia Speedway Park.<\/p>\n

Landers passed Ty Dillon on the final lap and drove away with the checkered flag for a record\u2010tying fifth victory in the Alltel DIRTcar Nationals By UNOH. Landers will try to break his tie with Steve Arpin, who won five times in 2007, in the UMP DIRTcar Modified finale on Tuesday. Austin Dillon was third with Ryan Gifford in fourth.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to talk about all my other cars,\u201d Landers said. \u201cI had four cars I built for these guys and look, One, Two, Three, Four,\u201d said Landers, of Batesville, Ark. \u201cI didn\u2019t think I was going to be able to outurn them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Landers and Austin Dillon came from outside the top five to chase down younger brother Ty Dillon in the waning laps. Ty Dillon garnered the lead early, grabbing it from polesitter Corky Thomas. Ty\u2019s older brother Austin closed in late but slipped trying to make a move that allowed Landers to score second.<\/p>\n

Landers then used traffic for a perfect pick and roll to the outside to take the lead on the last circuit.<\/p>\n

\u201cTy had it won,\u201d he said. \u201cIf we had a caution there was no way in the world I would have caught him They just did a heck of a job. It just happened to work for me I just don\u2019t know how.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ty Dillon settled for the runner up spot, just ahead of his older brother. \u201cI thought we were in the clear and Jared came out of nowhere,\u201d said the younger Dillon. \u201cIt ****s to lose that way but if we\u2019re losing to Jared it\u2019s alright.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ty who claimed a heat race victory earlier in the night\u2019s racing program is still focused on earning his way to victory lane after getting very close Monday. \u201cIt was a battle all night,\u201d he said. \u201cWe just came up a little short.\u201d<\/p>\n

Austin Dillon, the only driver to finish in front of Landers in competition during the week, nabbed third place. \u201cI tell you what Ty drove his butt off.\u201d Austin said a happy older brother. \u201cI was trying to pass him that whole time. And then finally I got to him and Jared runs right by me\u201d<\/p>\n

Landers once again pleaded to the crowd from Alltel Wireless Victory Lane for votes in the Alltel All\u2010Star contest. \u201cI need it.\u201d said Landers. \u201cIt didn\u2019t look like I was going to get it tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Landers goes for win number six Tuesday night. Gates will open at 5 p.m. with qualifying at 6 p.m., and racing at 7:30pm.<\/p>\n
