(May 18, 2012) The Will Vaught Racing team invaded the Batesville Motor Speedway in Locust Grove, Arkansas on Thursday, May 17 for an open practice session leading up to the inaugural 'Bad Boy 98.'

Unfortunately, Will Vaught broke a transmission shaft during practice on Thursday, which wiped out a lot of rear-end components underneath his #1v Warrior racecar. He was forced to scratch from the remainder of the weekend and will now go to work fixing his car for the upcoming 'Show-Me 100' at the Lucas Oil (MO) Speedway on May 25-26.
