Allen Picks Up Lucky #7 At Humboldt Speedway
By Scott L. Stewart – July 28th, and Humboldt Speedway celebrated Mid Season by crowning the points champions in all four divisions. Congratulations to Ryan McAninish, USRA Modifieds, Jimmie Davis, B-Mods, Jeremy Wilson, Factory Stock, and Derrek Wilson, Pure Stock. Best of luck to all drivers in the second half of the season.
Racing action this week was, in a word, intense. Possibly the most competitive Factory Stock feature of the year saw Jeremy Wilson wrestle the lead away from Daryl Drake late in the race, the last of many lead changes, and a victory for Wilson. With Drake in second, Tyler James claimed a hard fought third spot, while David Matlock was fourth, and Matt Haid fifth.
At one point early in the year, it seemed no one could run with Derrek Wilson. However, the class as a whole has risen to the challenge, and Wilson now faces tough competition from many angles. For example, Wilson did win this week’s feature in the Whitworth Construction Pure Stock’s, but he had an aggressive Mike Churning applying maximum pressure from the runner up spot. Mitchell Coulter continues to run very strong, finishing third in the event, while Don McIntosh was fourth, and Tyler Hinrichs fifth.
Randy Zimmerman was the winner of the Ray’s Metal Depot B-Mod show for the third straight week, but Jeremy Chambers really applied the pressure in a second place finish that went down to the wire. Dakota Foster came in third, followed by Jimmie Davis and Blake Davis.
Reigning McCarthy Auto Group/USRA Modified points Champion John Allen put on what really amounted to a driving clinic, turning in a flawless performance on his way to victory. Justin Rexwinke came through the field to finish a strong second, with Ryan McAninsh third, Scott Daniels fourth, and Dalton Kirk fifth.
Next week, The Hummer will be racing on Wednesday, July 3rd: $2000.00 to win in Modifieds, extra money for B-Mods, and a huge fireworks show after the race. We will not have a Friday night show next week.
