On Friday night, both drivers were in the pit area at the Paducah International Raceway in Paducah, Kentucky to vie for the $20,000 top prize. Jason ran sixth in heat race action and then opted to load up his #81jr ride prior to the B-Main due to the rough track conditions. Randy finished fifth in his heat race and fourth in his B-Main, which narrowly kept him out of the 75-lapper.

On Saturday evening, Randy was the lone Riggs Motorsports driver to tackle another $20,000 to win NDRL extravaganza at the Federated Raceway at I-55 in Pevely, Missouri. Randy timed in fourteenth fastest overall prior to finishing fifth in his heat race and seventh in his B-Main.

Podium Finishes for Riggs Motorsports Over Weekend!
(April 7, 2013)
The Riggs Motorsports team rolled into the Paducah International Raceway in Paducah, Kentucky on Friday, April 5 for a $1,200 to win UMP program. Jason Riggs ran third in his heat race and later started the feature event from the outside of the second row. The Harrisburg, Illinois driver drove up to as high as second and was challenging for the lead when his oil line came off, which caused his car to smoke badly. Jason eventually crossed the finish line in the third spot behind only winner Terry English and runner-up Randy Korte.

Randy also wheeled a Riggs Motorsports entry at PIR as a teammate to Jason Riggs. The Highland, Illinois ace won his heat race in preliminary action prior to claiming the runner-up effort behind English. Randy was once again behind the wheel of a #81k entry on Saturday evening, April 6 at the Federated Raceway at I-55 in Pevely, Missouri. After finishing third in his heat race, Randy racked up another second place performance behind only victor Tim Ratajczyk.

Riggs Enters Tuckasee Toilet Bowl Classic at Clarksville
(March 10, 2013)
For the first time since the completion of the 'DART Winternationals,' the Riggs Motorsports team returned to Dirt Late Model competition over the March 8-9 weekend at the Clarksville Speedway in Clarksville, Tennessee. The 9th Annual 'Tuckasee Toilet Bowl Classic' was held at the Volunteer State oval and the MARS DIRTcar Series once again presided over the two-day show. A strong field of 43 competitors piled into the Clarksville pit area to vie for the $3,000 top prize on Friday and the $5,000 winner's check on Saturday.

Unfortunately, Jason Riggs was unable to transfer his #81jr into the main event on both Friday and Saturday. In the 'Toilet Bowl Classic' lid lifter, Jason finished sixth in his heat race prior to winding up third in his B-Main, which was one mere spot away from a transfer position into the 30-lap feature. In Saturday's weekend finale, Jason was ninth in his heat race before scratching from his B-Main.
