Marshalltown, Iowa (May 17th, 2013) – First the the time the speedway get back-to-back nights in as mother nature finally cooperated on Old Timers Lounge and Scout Night. The race track produced 3 and 4 wide racing through out the night.

Luellen held off the late race charge from Jenae Gustin, who worked her way through the field from her ninth place starting spot. Finishing behind Luellen and Gustin was Ben Kates, Eric Elliott and Joel Rust.

Before one lap was completed in the Mike’s Hard Lemonade IMCA Hobby Stock feature, the caution waved when CJ Dall’s machine didn’t start and came to a stop on the front stretch. The Old Bandit Brandon Pruitt grabbed the lead and never look back to take the win. Bill Bonnett tried to chase down Pruitt but last effort came up short.
