On Friday night the tour was able to dodge early morning rain to sanction an event at Tri City Speedway (Pontoon Beach, Illinois). A talent-laden field of 48 competitors registered for battle, and Klint would find himself behind the eight ball early in the night after finishing eighth in his heat race, which pinned him deep in a b-main. In the b-main he would fail to reach a transfer spot, bringing his night to an early end.

Looking to rebound from Friday night's disappointment the team traveled to Paducah International Raceway (Paducah, Kentucky) on Saturday night as another loaded field of 42 drivers were on hand.

Klint would narrowly evade disaster on the opening lap when second row starters Don O'Neal and Shannon Babb tangled in turn three, collecting several other cars. With the second row starters eliminated, Klint started third on the restart and would battle for the second spot during the first half of the race. However, as the race progressed the bottom groove, where Klint was racing, began to go away, and he faded to an eleventh place finish at th checkered flag.

Even though it wasn't the finish that Byars would've liked he was able to open a lot of eyes with his performance against a solid field of competitors at a track that he had never even seen. Full results are available at www.LucasDirt.com.
