Beaulieu, 20, is a rookie in the division this year driving the Hancock Lumber No. 56 out of the Dan McKeage stable. After the race, the smile on the driver\u2019s face said it all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat an awesome night this was,\u201d Evan said proudly. \u201cWe actually got this car dialed in and I was able to just run consistent laps all night long, my crew has done a great job this year making gains on this car and I\u2019m proud we got such a great run in. I wish we wouldn\u2019t of gotten that caution or could\u2019ve had a longer run at the end, it\u2019s taken us a few laps all year to get up to speed on restarts, but congrats to Bobby (Timmons) on the win, glad to see him get one.\u201d<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nBeaulieu started from the second spot, and took the early race lead from fellow rookie Sulo Burbank. Beaulieu drove away with the lead before the 11 of Tyler King got by. King would have ignition problems later in the race, giving Beaulieu the lead again while the caution flew for King. On the restart with five to go, the 48 of Bobby Timmons was able to beat Beaulieu into turn one, while Beaulieu held on to second. His first career top five and podium finish in the Pro Series.<\/p>\n<p>Last Thursday, Evan had his Super Late Model on display at Hancock Lumber, raising money and donations for the Toy\u2019s for Tots program.
