Irvine takes top opening night Stock Car Shootout prize

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa (June 30) – Brian Irvine picked up a bookend trophy, on opening night of the IMCA American Stock Car Shootout special.

The 2005 race winner from Oelwein caught long-time leader Rick Brown and stayed in front the rest of the way for the $1,250 victory Monday evening at Marshalltown Speedway. Other IMCA winners were Andy Boeckman of Lake View in the Hobby Stocks and Kevin Sather of Ankeny in the Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMods.

Brown set the early pace from his outside row one starting spot.
Irvine made his way up from the fourth row, taking the lead and then the checkers ahead of Luke Veren, Dusty Vis, Brian Blessington and Jeff Mueller.

Boeckman had to make his way to the front from 14th on the starting grid. Chris Luloff ran in front most of the way, then exited with a flat tire shortly after Boeckman drove by enroute to the $500 victory.

Completing the Hobby Stock top five were Beau Kaplan, Justin Maschke, Shannon Anderson and Alan Van Gorp.

Sather dueled with Kyle Brown before taking the $200 Northern SportMod win. Austin Kaplan, Kyle Bentley, Austin Lucas and Joel Bushore followed Sather across the stripe.

The three IMCA divisions brought 133 cars to town, including 66 Stock Cars from seven states, 43 Hobby Stocks from four states and 24 Northern SportMods from Iowa and Missouri,

Sanctioned Modifieds join Stocks and Hobbies on the Tuesday card. Pit gates open at 5 p.m., the grandstand opens at 5:30 p.m., hot laps are at 6:30 p.m. and racing gets underway at 7:30 p.m.

Irvine will have the edge in the race for the overall points championship, along with qualifying eligibility for the Sunoco Race Fuels Race of Champions at the IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals, when the Shootout resumes.
