 Justin returned to Indiana and his job after the Petaluma race. He got an opportunity to run the Jeff Walker #11 at Kokomo Speedway. Justin ran very strong and turned a lot of eyes in the Indiana area as he battled Cole Witt and Hunter Schurenberg down to the final laps. Justin took a commanding lead at  the start and then got held up in lap traffic allowing Cole and Hunter to close in. Cole got by Justin in lap traffic, but Justin battled back to regain the lead. In the closing laps Justin was battling with Hunter when the two made slight contact and before Justin regained total control, he found himself spinning in turn 4. He was able to keep it running but was placed in the rear on the restart for causing the yellow.

Justin made his first Lawrenceburg USAC start Saturday April 17, 2010 in the Ken-Margo Baldwin #5 Maxim. They missed hotlaps when an ignition box failed as they were pushing off for hotlaps. Getting it repaired just before his turn to qualify he qualified 17th in the USAC field. Justin ran second in his heat race and started very deep (17) in the feature, he steadily moved forward picking off some very good cars on his way to an impressive ninth place finish. 
Derek claxton and Justin are working closely on the car setup, and Derek is helping turn the wrenches on the #5 Baldwin Brothers race cars this season. This was the first race of what is to be a very busy season for the Baldwin team. The team started out with great results battling Jeff Bland to a one two finish in the heat race. Starting 5th in the main, Justin moved forward passing Bland for third behind Leader Brady Short and Bob East in Second. Bland got back by Justin and then Justin took third back when Bland flipped after jumping the cushion and hitting the fence, almost collecting the #5 sprinter as the car tumbled down the track. After the restart Jsutin set sites on Bob East, passing him moving into second. Justin could gain ground on longer runs, but late race restarts gave Brady Short the edge he needed and took the victory over Justin. Great run for his first ever trip to North Vernon. Next up the 40 lapper back at North Vernon next week.
