Repeat winners at Red Cloud
By Mike Hughes
RED CLOUD, NE (August 3) - Several familiar faces visited the winner’s circle at
The Speed Bowl in Red Cloud, NE, Friday evening, August 3.
In the IMCA Modified feature, ‘The Red Cloud Rocket’ Lonnie Schriner picked up
his sixth win of the season. Heat two winner Lance Borgman led the first 4 laps
of the 20-lap race when the lone caution flew for a spinning Brandon Blochlinger.
After the restart, Schriner shot past Borgman to take the lead and pulled away
from the field to win by a straightaway. Heat one winner Dusty Blake finished
second, followed by Borgman, Mark Zorn and Micaah Johnson.
IMCA Stock Car national point leader Cory Struckhoff of Kensington, KS, helped
his point lead with his third win of the year at the 3/8-mile oval. Heat one
winner Chad Wulf led at the drop of the green, followed by Brant Beam, Jason
Smidt and heat two winner Jason McCartney. After a caution on lap 4 for a
two-car tangle, Wulf led the field back to green but was passed by Struckhoff on
the following lap. Track point leader Brett Behrends stayed glued to
Struckhoff’s bumper the final 15 laps but could not make the pass and settled
for second. Matt Streit was third, followed by Wayne Walker and McCartney.
Ricky Runnion led the first four laps of the 14-lap IMCA Hobby Stock feature
until he spun on lap 4. Roger Crouse then took command but was passed by track
point leader Jim Buss of Blue Hill on lap 6. Buss led the remaining distance for
his fourth win of the season. Jeromy Wagner, Runnion, Joe McDole and Jerry
Hudson rounded out the top five. Heat race winners were Kyle Bond and Rhett
Kingsbury.
The Good Ol’ Time Racing Association (GOTRA) paid a visit to Red Cloud with
Butch Lavicky of David City taking the lead at the halfway mark of their 12-lap
feature to drive on for the win. Rich Anderson was second and heat one winner
James Sylvester third. Lavicky won the other heat race, and Ken Ganskow
collected the hardware in the trophy dash.
Adam Sidlo & E.J. Kothe of Hastings won their 8th Cruiser feature of the year,
while Franklin’s Joshua Bodenus took top honors in the 4-cylinder Young Guns.
Racing returns to The Speed Bowl on Friday evening, August 10, at 8:00 p.m.
