Night #1 - Osky Stock Car Shoot Out

It was night #1 for the annual Stock Car Shoot Out at the Southern Iowa Speedway on Tuesday night. Once again, we had an eye to the sky, as "stuff" was roaming in the area.  Fortunately, Mother Nature was kind, and the racing went on.

There were qualifying heats in the Stock Car, SportMod, Hobby Stock and Sport Compact classes---all running a second set of heats.  The drivers accumulated points and the top 8 in each division are locked into tonight's features. Last chance qualifying continues tonight....new cars welcome. From a Facebook post by promoter Mike VanGenderen, these are the top 8 that are already in the features tonight:

The Iowa Sportsmen Series also ran last evening.  They had a 30-lap feature and it was led the entire distance by winner Tyler Sutter.  Second went to Gene Tish, third was Cole Jackson (son of Steve Jackson) fourth was Travis Dawson and Andy Kline was fifth.  

Tonight, the Modifieds will join the field of cars, running a complete show.  Hopefully, the weather will hold off and tonight's 21st Annual Budweiser IMCA Stock Car Shoot Out will get in the books.  Hot laps are 7 and racing at 7:30.
