Swanson, Hines USAC winners at Lucas Oil Raceway: Swanson wins in Silver Crown Series; Hines takes Rich Vogler Classic midget race
Swanson wins in Silver Crown Series; Hines takes Rich Vogler Classic midget race
By: Steven Cole Smith on July 28, 2013
Steven Cole Smith - Tanner Swanson in victory lane at Lucas Oil Raceway after winning the 100-lap race for USAC Silver Crown Series cars on Saturday.
Saturday was a good night to be named Swanson at Lucas Oil Raceway in Clermont, Indiana. Brothers Tanner and Kody Swanson, from Kingsburg, California, took first and second in the J.D. Byrider 100, a 100-lap race for the USAC Traxxas Silver Crown cars held on the paved oval previously known as Indianapolis Raceway Park.
And it wasn't a bad night to be named Hines, either, as Tracy Hines won the 30-lap Rich Vogler Classic USAC midget race, while Tanner Swanson finished third, just behind Kyle Larson, fresh from an 11th-place finish at the Indiana 250 NASCAR Nationwide race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway Saturday afternoon, and a second-place finish at Eldora Speedway Wednesday night in the NASCAR Camping World truck series Mudsummer Classic.
Kody Swanson, 25, qualified on the pole in his for the Silver Crown race, and held the lead until Tanner, 21, started challenging him on lap 11. Tanner completed the pass on lap 14, and never looked back.
The 17-car race went caution-free until lap 49, when Jarrett Andretti, son of former NASCAR, IndyCar and NHRA driver John Andretti, spun in turn four after battling brake bias problems. Before the field was able to go green, the third-place car of Jerry Coons, Jr. spun after breaking an axle. The race restarted on lap 62, and Tanner Swanson again shot into the lead ahead of his brother, with David Byrne in third, Chris Windom in fourth, and Hines in fifth.
When the checkered flag fell on lap 100, Tanner, driving a Banjo Corporation Beast/Kistler, had nearly a half-lap lead over his brother, and was inches from lapping the sixth-place car of Jacob Wilson.
Steven Cole Smith - Tracy Hines drove his Spike/Stanton Toyota to victory in the Rick Vogler Classic.
Prior to the Silver Crown race, New Castle, Indiana's Hines -- who finished 13th in the NASCAR truck series Mudsummer Classic at Eldora -- dominated the 14-car Rich Vogler Classic from the pole. Darrell Hagen passed Hines on lap five, but Hines quickly re-passed him, and Hagen dropped back to an eventual fourth-place finish. Larson was next to challenge Hines, passing him in turn three after a slide job, but Hines re-passed Larson before they reached the front straight.
Hines took the victory in his Spike/Stanton Toyota, followed by teammates Larson and Tanner Swanson, both driving Toyota-powered, Keith Kunz-owned Beast cars.
Hines leads defending series champion Hagen in season points, 307 to 301. In Silver Crown points, Kody Swanson leads Bobby East, who finished seventh, 197 to 186 points.

Frank Ocean suffers vocal cord tear, cancels tour

1 hour ago
After learning he has a tear in one of his vocal cords, Frank Ocean has canceled his sold-out Australian tour right after opening night, according to a statement on promoter LiveNation's Facebook page.
The singer suffered throat problems on the first night of his inaugural tour Down Under on Thursday, and afterward visited the doctors, who gave him the diagnosis.
He was aware there was a problem even during the show, according to Billboard, as Ocean told the audience after a performance of "Forrest Gump," "I'm sick ... I don't know if you care." (Judge for yourself how he sounded in the video below.)
"After last night's concert ... it was necessary to seek medical advice due to vocal issues Frank Ocean experienced during the show," the show's promoter said in a statement on Facebook. "It has subsequently been confirmed that Frank has suffered a small tear to one of his vocal (cords) and has received medical advice that he must rest his voice."
The mini-tour of four dates was meant to coincide with the Australian music festival Splendour in the Grass, but that won't happen now.
"With Splendour already in full swing this is devastating news for the event and will be for many of our patrons," a spokesperson for the festival said.
