Davenport Speedway Season Championships Friday
DAVENPORT, Iowa (August 26) – A season’s worth of preparati on, effort,
winning, losing, close calls and even closer finishes, will come to a close
this Friday at the Davenport Speedway 2009 Season Championships.
Going into the point season finale, two track championships have been
clinched, leaving four class titles to be determined during the evening’s
racing program.
In the Track Tamer Engines IMCA Late Models, Ray Guss Jr., is holding onto a
commanding lead in track points. Davenport’s Matt Ryan is second in track
points, with Kevin ‘the Wildman’ Blum third. Guss and Blum are also locked
in a tight battle for IMCA National Late Model points, where Blum is leading
and Guss is third. The battle for IMCA National Late Model points concludes
Sunday.
Despite last week’s rain out, three past track champions are battling for
the Pro Mod track championship. Thad Wilson of Moline, is in the points
lead, just six points ahead of John Bull. ‘The Dominator’ Bob Dominacki is
right behind, third in the point standings, just seven points behind Wilson.
The Street Stock title is also up for grabs, as three drivers are racing for
the crown. Point leader, Andrew Burk, holds a precarious three point lead
over Joe Beal and five markers over Jeremy Marquette.
Marion, Iowa’s Max Corporon has already sewed up the IMCA Modified track
championship. Corporon has scored seven feature wins, en route to the IMCA
Mod crown. This is the first season in decades that the IMCA Modifi eds have
raced at Davenport as a sanctioned class.
The CrashedToys.com 4 Stocks title has also be decided. Josh Riley of
Stockton, Iowa, is the 2009 4 Stock champion. Riley has posted two feature
wins and a stack of top five finishes this season.
Cedar Rapids driver, Jeremy Meyer leads the points in the Bulltown Legends
of Iowa INEX Legend division. Meyer has a sizeable lead over Eric Barth
heading into the finale. Barth has ten feature wins at Davenport in ten
appearances, and is twenty points behind Meyer.
