KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- Darron Fuqua bested the field during the 18th Annual Tom Karrick Modified Memorial feature Friday night at the Lakeside Speedway, taking home a cool $2,000 for his 30-lap effort.

Starting seventh, Fuqua used the cushion to hook the right rear of his USRA Modifieds and propelled himself forward quickly. Early race leader Kerry Davis had command for the first four laps and gave chase once Fuqua got around him until mechanical issues forced him to drop out early.

Nic Bidinger charged hard at the end, and even with a lap-20 caution wasn’t able to find the speed to get by Fuqua and finished second.

Terry Schultz raced from 14th to finish third, edging out Mark Schafman. Austin Siebert rounded out the top 5.

Once the USRA B-Mod drivers got the first five cautions out of their system, they ran a great race. Chad Clancy started up front and dominated the 15-lap event.

The most excitement came from watching Gene Claxton and Mike Higley. Claxton started 23th and Higley 25th. The two ended up finishing second and third, respectively. Randal Schiffelbein and Jake Richards finished fourth and fifth.

“Racing on the River’s Edge” continues every Friday night through October with the USRA A-Modifieds, Grand Nationals, USRA B-Modifieds and Factory Stocks. Gates open at 5:00pm, hot laps at 6:45pm, and the first race gets under way at 7:30pm. Adult ticket prices are $12.00, kids 7-12 $6.00, and children 6 and younger admitted FREE.
