Inside Line Promotions – ELMA, Wash. (July 5, 2017) – Harli White’s inaugural trip to race in Washington came to an end last weekend during the Fred Brownfield Classic at Grays Harbor Raceway.

The Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour doubleheader began on Friday, when White finished where she started – fifth – in a heat race. That relegated her to a B Main, in which she maneuvered from fourth to second place to earn a transfer into the back of the main event.

“On Friday night we didn’t have a good starting position in the heat race and that put us behind,” she said. “We had to run a B Main and we transferred out of that. The way the track was in the feature there wasn’t a whole lot of passing. The track rubbered up so it wasn’t real racy. It was out of our control.”

The track took rubber early after White gained a trio of positions to finish 16th.

The weekend concluded on Saturday with a much better pill draw that lined White up on the inside of the second row for a heat race.

“I was able to pick up my first Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour heat race win,” she said. “We really needed that. To be locked into the show out of the heat race was a big thing. We got a good starting position starting fifth and we had a good car all night long.”

White earned the most overall heat race points to lock into the feature redraw. She pulled the No. 5 to start the main event on the inside of the third row.

“I got a good start in turns one and two and pulled up next to Aaron (Reutzel) down the backstretch,” she said. “Then I got ran over in turns three and four by another driver. It broke the left rear brake line. I restarted and thought I could pump up the brakes to get them to work, but I had to pull off because I had no brakes.”

White was credited with a 22nd-place finish.

She will make her debut at Gallatin Speedway in Belgrade, Mont., this Friday and Saturday for the Grizzly Nationals with the Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour. White will have her t-shirt trailer with all apparel near the main grandstands both nights.
