Jimmy Owens, also known as "The Newport Nightmare," and "The O Show" is a dirt late model driver from Newport, Tennessee. Owens won 4 UMP Modified National Championships before moving up to super late models where he has also had success. Rather than following a touring series, he opted for the "outlaw" mentality, traveling where he chooses and hitting all of the crown jewels, similar to Scott Bloomquist. He stopped racing "outlaw" and joined the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series to become series' the 2011 national champion. Owens' 2007 season included winning The World 100 at Eldora Speedway, the 25th Annual North/South 100 at Florence Speedway in Florence, KY, the Blue/Gray 100 in Gaffney, SC, Racefest World Championship in Mineral Wells, WV, and the Crate World Championship in Tampa, FL. Owens won a total of seventeen races in 2007. In 2008, Jimmy won the $40,000 to win Hillbilly 100 at Tyler County (WV) Speedway. In 2009, Jimmy won the 15th Annual Dirt Late Model Dream at Eldora Speedway, a win that was worth $100,000. He went on later in the year to capture the 17th Annual Comp Cams Topless 100 at Batesville (AR) Speedway, a win worth $42,000. He joined the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series and won the 2011 championship over Bloomquist.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lucasdirt.com/2011/11/09/jimmy-owens-captures-2011-lucas-oil-late-model-dirt-series-championshipjared-landers-takes-quarter-master-rookie-of-the-year-honors/ )〕 He won eight races, had 32 Top 5s and 35 Top 10s.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jimmy Owens (racing driver)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
