Just as he has done for most of the 2021 season Jimmy Kirby continued to dominate the ThunderCar Division at Anderson Speedway. Kirby led all 50 laps Saturday to capture the 72nd running of the National Crown presented by Beaumont Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center. It was the sixth win for Kirby in seven feature races in the division and marked his victory in the biggest race of the year for the ThunderCar competitors.

It’s the longest continuous stock car race in the country starting in 1950 at Anderson Speedway. Herchel White won the first ever National Crown and it has been at the top of every driver’s bucket list for the past 72 years.

The Beaumont Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center National Crown tops the Saturday racing program that includes the Marcum’s Welding Front Wheel Drive Division, Hart’s Auto Ford Division and Legends.
