Three first time winners at Red Cloud
By Mike Hughes
RED CLOUD, NE (June 29)—Three new faces graced victory lane at The Speed Bowl in
Red Cloud, NE, Friday evening, June 29. Two of those included the father and son
duo of Jerry and Josh Hudson of Kensington, who pulled off the hat trick for the
second time in a week, as both won last Saturday night at RPM Speedway in Hays,
KS.
Jerry took the lead on lap 2 of the IMCA Hobby Stock feature from Pat Hersh and
led to the only caution in the 14-lap race on lap 6 when Andrew Lovegrove drove
off turn 4. Hudson led the field back to green, followed by Joe McDole, and heat
race winners Kyle Bond and Jim Buss. The top seven were close throughout the
race but Hudson held on to win his first feature of the year at Red Cloud.
McDole finished a close second, trailed by Bond, Buss, and Murray Haugan II.
Jason McCartney led the first half of the 18-lap IMCA Stock Car feature before
Josh Hudson made the pass for a lead he would not relinquish. Hudson was first
at the checkers, his first Speed Bowl win this year, followed by Jason Smidt,
McCartney, Jason Davis and heat two winner Matt Streit. Jared Remus won the
other heat race.
‘The Red Cloud Rocket’ Lonnie Schriner won his third IMCA Modified feature at
his hometown track. Heat one winner Tim Watts led the first 4 laps before
Schriner took the top spot. Schriner led at the halfway mark of the 20-lap race,
while Brandon Blochlinger, Jordan Grabouski and Watts were hooked up in a heated
race for second. But both Watts and Grabouski went to the pits during the event,
ending their night. Schriner took the win, followed by Blochlinger, Scott Smith,
Larry Sutton and Lonnie Veteto. Heat one winner Troy Johnson was sixth.
Adam Sidlo & E.J. Kothe won their fifth Cruiser feature of the year at the
3/8-mile oval. Terry Gradig & Jeremy Teselle were second. David Theer & Troy
Himmelberg won the heat race.
Troy Porter of Harvard won his first 4-cylinder feature race. Joshua Bodenus was
second. Porter also won the heat race.
The regular five divisions return this Friday night, July 6. Racing begins at
8:00 p.m., followed by a fireworks show.
