Countdown to Davenport Speedway Season Championship
2 Races to Go…
DAVENPORT, Iowa (August 19) – After last Friday’s exciting racing action,
two drivers were able to extend their points lead, three leads shrank, and
one class saw a change in the leader’s spot. Only two races remain, and
points will be at a premium.
Ray Guss Jr., was able to extend his point lead in the Track Tamer Engines
IMCA Late Models. Guss won both his heat and feature last Friday, increasing
his lead over second place Matt Ryan to 24 points. Kevin ‘the Wildman’ Blum
is third in points, 29 markers back.
When John Bull was unable to start the Pro Mod feature on Friday the point
leader fell back to second20position. Thad Wilson, who won Friday’s feature
in dramatic fashion, advanced to the points lead. John Bull is still in the
hunt, six points back. Bob Dominacki is right behind, third in the point
standings, just seven points behind Wilson.
Street Stock point leader, Andrew Burk, got caught up in a 5-car pile-up
Friday. The crash did not change the order in the point standings, but the
numbers surely did. Burk now holds a precarious three point lead over Joe
Beal and five markers over Jeremy Marquette. Cary Brown and Tim Koehler are
also still alive in the title hunt.
IMCA Modified points leader, Max Corporon had a poor outing on Friday,
finishing 11th, in his feature. However Corporon’s 57 point lead, means he
only needs to start the final two races to clinch the championship. Chris
Stein of Davenport, is now second in points, after winning Friday’s IMCA
Modified feature.
Josh Riley finished second in Friday’s feature and extended his lead in the
CrashedToys.com 4 Stock class. Travis Wilson is a distant second in the
point standings. Riley also needs only to start the final two features to
clinch the track title.
Jeremy Meyer still leads the points in the Bulltown Legends of Iowa INEX
Legend division. Meyer will be looking over his shoulder, as Eric Barth has
moved into the second position in the point standings. Including Friday’s
victory, Barth now has ten feature wins at Davenport in ten appearances.
Barth is now only twenty points behind Meyer. Matt Montieth and Craig
Peekenschnieder are both 27 points behind.
Weekly racing action this Friday, August 21st, will include a National
Qualifying event for the INEX Legends cars. The INEX Legend Car Dirt
Nationals will be held in October, at East Lincoln Speedway, in North
Carolina.
This Friday is also Kid’s Back to School Night at the Davenport Speedway.
Kids 12 and under will be admitted free with a paid adult. Bike races will
be held for the kids, following the racing program. Helmets are mandatory.
The 2009 Davenport Speedway Season Championships will be run on Friday,
August 28th.
