Chesmore, Christians capture Tuesday Stock Car qualifiers at
Super Nationals
BOONE, Iowa (Sept. 8) – Norman Chesmore and Jeremy Christians topped 25-lap
qualifying features Tuesday at Boone Speedway, on night two of the IMCA
Speedway Motors Super Nationals.
The top five finishers from both races advance to Saturday’s main event. All
10 drivers have been to the big dance before but only one has won it, Brian
Blessington in 2001. They’ll return to the track during Wednes day’s show to
decide the starting order of the middle row.
Justin Temeyer, David Smith, Chad Estes and Dustin Vis finished behind
Chesmore. Smith joins brothers Donavon and Dustin in the Saturday show.
Estes qualified from the 17th starting spot while Vis drove all the way from
23rd.
Christians raced his way to the front from the seventh starting spot,
holding off pole starter Brandon Czara pata in a tussle that went back and
forth as the laps counted down.
Blessington, Mike Nichols and Chris Ullrich rounded out the top five.
Their upcoming main event appearances will be the career ninth for both
Blessington and Christians.
Smith is in for the seventh time, Nichols for the sixth, Czarapata, Estes
and Temeyer each for the fifth, Vis for the fourth, and Chesmore and Ullrich
both for the second.
