Adam Larson, Trent Murphy and Dusty Masolini are repeat winners

Though the sky was a bit threatening on Saturday night and the program was hurried along with no farming, the Boone Speedway got their weekly show in with no problem. Adam Larson in the modified division, Trent Murphy in stock cars and Dusty Masolini in the Dwarf/Mod Lites, would repeat their wins from the previous week.

The Dwarf/Mod Lites was the first feature of the night and it was run just as soon as the only B Main of the evening in the SportMod class was completed. The track conditions were not the norm for them as they are usually running on a just farmed surface. Dusty Masolini would take the lead from his third place starting position early on with Josh May trailing him and Charlie Brown coming through the pack nicely to take over third place. That would be the way the top three would finish with Masolini taking a repeat win from last week, Josh May in second and Charlie Brown in third. Rounding out the top five would be Tim Hennigar in fourth and Andy Hennigar in fifth.

The SportMod's ran their main event next. Jared Timmerman would lead the race for a while as he had advanced from his 7th starting spot. Several cautions would mix the field up and after the half-way mark, it would find Jeremy Embrey taking over the top position with last week's winner Scott Davis taking over second from Timmerman. That would be the way they would finish with Paul Nagle coming home fourth and Craig Elliott took fifth.

The IMCA modified class saw a strong field of cars but in the end, it would be Adam Larson from Ames, repeating his win as he took the lead before half-way and never relinquishing it after that. John Logue advanced from eleventh starting spot, to take the runner-up position with Russ Dickerson taking third, Scott Baker fourth, and Josh "Happy" Gilman in fifth.

The show moved right along with possible weather coming in and quickly the stock cars took to the track. Jamie Morey in his Ford powered machine, would lead the race early from his pole starting position , but it was the 25 car of Trent Murphy making his way through the pack to take away the top spot with a handful of laps to go. Veteran Robert Stofer would make his way to second as the laps wound down. In the end, it would be Murphy taking the checkers followed by Stofer, Wayne Gifford, Bill Reetz, and Don Vis. Morey would fall back to finish sixth.

It was back to two features for the hobby stockers this week. The first feature would find a new face in Victory Lane as Matt Drottz took his first win of the year. The early lead was held by Chris Hupp until Drottz was able to get around him. Hupp would have to settle for second tonight, Richard Yaw II took third, Daniel Hilsabeck fourth, and Eric Stanton fifth. Yaw would have his engine claimed by the m15 of Pat Mather. Yaw had claimed Mather early in May I believe.

The final hobby feature would run flag to flag. Travis Fenton would lead early but a bobble would relegate him several spots back in the running. In the end, it would be Lake City's Devin Smith coming home to the checkers first, followed by Scott Lograsso, Michael Murphy in third, Alan VanGorp in fourth, and Travis Fenton would take fifth.

The program was completed before 10:15 for which we were glad due to an early morning call the next day for the Iowa Speedway's Indy car race. The only change for the evening was the kid's bike races which were postponed until next week. It was announced that those kids would be admitted free next week.

There is lots of racing action in our area now, so get out and see some of the shows if at all possible. Happy racing!
