CJ Speedway Races Beat the Rain On Friday Night

| May 7, 2023

 

Columbus Junction, Iowa (May 5, 2023) – With Mother Nature threatening to spoil the fun, the CJ Speedway was able to complete the racing program at 9:45 pm on Friday night just before rain moved into the area.

The Stewart & Sons Fuel IMCA Modifieds put on a spectacular race on Friday night with the lead changing hands several times in the early going. Jerry King led early before Troy Cordes looking to become a repeat winner took over. Jarrett Brown started in the 4th row and steadily made his way to the front securing the lead following a lap ten restart. Brown went on to capture the win at his home track ahead of late race challenger Ethan Braaksma. King took third ahead of Dakota Simmons.

The Mincer Ford IMCA Stock Cars took the green with Leah Wroten taking command from the pole position. Wroten had built a comfortable lead before a caution brought the field to her rear bumper. Nathan Ballard took over the point on the restart and went on to record the win. It was a long week for Ballard as the car needed completely rebuilt following an accident a week ago. The car worked perfectly, Ballard scored the win ahead of Wroten and Jason See.

The Huston Brothers Trucking IMCA Sportmods saw an outstanding field of talented drivers take the green flag for their feature on Friday night. Nick Aupperle led the first few couple of laps before developing a engine misfire. Trey Rock took over and led a few laps before 8th starting Shane Paris took over the top spot. Paris went on to garner the win ahead of a fast closing Dylan VanWyk, Rock crossed under the checkers in third.

Kale Hemsley led the CJ Auto Parts/NAPA Stores IMCA Hobby Stocks main event early from his outside front row start. Luke Phillips took over the point position from Hemsley and went on to hold off the late race challenges by Bradley Graham to score the win. Tyson Overton ran a strong race in finishing third.

The Midwest Rod & Restoration IMCA Sport Compacts saw a pack of cars battling for the top spot throughout the first half of their main event on Friday night. Alex Hayes was able to break free from the pack and go on to record the win ahead of Matt Moore and Kolby Sabin.

IMCA Weekly Racing will continue on Friday, May 12th at the CJ Speedway with hot laps taking to the 4/10ths mile dirt track at 7 pm. Racing will follow the conclusion of hot laps.
