by Bill Wright
Knoxville, IA, August 24, 2014 – Darin Van Dee of Deep River took the 29th annual Fall Enduro at Knoxville Raceway Sunday night. In a race that went the full 200 laps, the win paid him $1,000 for his efforts. Van Dee inherited the lead when defending champion, Mike Goff, made a stop in the pits to change a right rear tire at about the 170 lap mark. Goff returned to finish second on the lead lap and earn $700. Troy DeJong of Bussey finished third worth $500.
Seven red flag periods were encountered along the way for various reasons such as debris on the track as well for removal of stalled cars which were in a dangerous position.
