"Bacon Makes Bank in the Western World Finals"- Tucson, Ariz.

TUCSON, Ariz. (November 21, 2009) – It was a salty veteran and one of the sport's young guns that rose to the top at USA Raceway on Saturday night, as Tennessee's Sammy Swindell and Oklahoma's Brady Bacon reigned supreme over the 133 competitors that flocked to Arizona for the 42nd Annual Kronik Energy Western World Championships presented by Old Tucson Studios.

Both drivers backed up qualifying night triumphs, with Sprint Car racing legend Swindell outdueling Tim Kaeding to take Saturday night's $15,000 winner's share in the season ending 30-lapper for the Lucas Oil Sprint Cars presented by K&N Filters after posting his first series win of the year in Thursday night action.

After earning just his second career ASCS Regional win on Friday night, the 19-year-old Bacon paced the Discount Tire Co. ASCS Canyon Region field all 30 laps to pick up the $5,000 non-wing winner's share.

With the title already tucked securely away before Saturday's finale, Shane Stewart officially inked his name into the record books as the 2009 Lucas Oil Sprint Cars presented by K&N Filters champion, a title worth $60,000.

Also securing titles on Saturday night were Rick Ziehl, who claimed his second consecutive ASCS Southwest winged title, and Charles Davis, Jr., who earned the ASCS Canyon Region championship.

Fourteen different drivers pulled double duty over the course of the weekend by competing in both the winged and non-winged ranks, with Brady Bacon, Jesse Hockett and Tim Crawley the only three drivers to make the cut for both championship "A" Main events. Bacon was presented a special award after the event as the top overall finisher of both divisions.
