Sanders, Wray, Ainsworth bag America’s Best Value Inn Night checkers at I-35 Speedway

WINSTON, Mo.—Out-Pace USRA B-Mods would put on one of the best races of the night seeing the yellow flag only once. Randy Ainsworth would battle side by side early with Bud Wilson and late with Steve Starmer but hold off all challenges and take the checkers first landing in McCarthy Auto Group Winners Circle. Starmer would end the night second with big mover of the race Doug Keller making a last lap charge to take third. Heat race winner Bud Wilson would fade late to place fourth with another heat race winner Shadren Turner rounding out the nights top five. Other heat race winner was the of Austin Bouzek.

As usual, Holley USRA Stock Cars would put on a show of epic proportions and impress in both heat races and feature with two and three wide racing on the fast 3/8 mile speedway. Heat race winner Billie Hoover would take the lead early and appear to be the car to beat until the of Dean Wray would work the high side and take the lead away from Hoover. Wray would go on to pick up his second win of the season with big mover of the race Jeff Dixon racing his way to second place. Jon Boller would use the lower line on track to propel him to a solid third place showing. One time leader Hoover would fade a bit and end the night fourth with Alvie Christofferson finishing fifth. Other heat race winner was Aaron Sauter.

Ending the night of racing action the mighty USRA Modifieds would charge to the track full of fire and intensity. Heat race winner Cory Wray would set the pace early and lead the majority of the feature holding off all challengers. As the race progressed one driver, Zach Sanders, would start their charge to the front and use a slide job in turn 4 taking the lead from Wray. Sanders would not be denied and finish the night in victory lane claiming win #2 on the season. Wray would end the night second with Dennis Elliott a close third. Other heat race winner Sam Florence would finish fourth with John Hanson rounding out the nights top five.

 I-35 Speedway would like to thank all our fans for coming out and enjoying the great racing and family fun. See everyone next Saturday Night for More “Dirt Trackin at its Best”!!
