21 B-MODS
STARTED 9TH
FINISHED 8TH
Kenton had a much better draw and started on the pole of the second heat race. He finished 3rd behind winner Jeremy Chambers and Matthew Kay. That put him starting the A feature on the fifth row inside. He drove a smooth race and was able to gain one spot to finish 8th. This was the second top 10 of the weekend and the best finishes he had so far this season.
Kenton plans to run on Thursday at 81 Speedway and back to Humboldt Speedway on Friday. Both shows will include the USMTS modifieds as well! Hope to see you there!

Sunday night action at Humboldt Speedway saw the 2020 debut of the USRA “A” Mods at Humboldt Speedway.

Dominating the feature action was third generation Wichita Ks. Racer Tanner Mullens. After winning his heat , Mullens started on the inside pole position of the feature, and virtually drove off from the rest of the field for a wire to wire win. Fayetteville, Ar. driver Tyler Wolff was runner up, USMTS regular and one time King of America Rodney Sanders of Happy Tx. took third, Chanute Ks. driver Paden Phillips finished fourth, and Jared Russell of Wagoner, Ok. Tallied fifth in the twelve car field. These drivers and many more will be in competition at Humboldt Speedway this Friday night.
Fort Scott Ks. driver Andy Bryant, a veteran of The Hummer, was flawless in winning the Ray’s Metal Depot B-Mod feature. Runner up in the event was Clint Johnson of Neosho Mo., Jeremy Chambers of Baldwin City, Ks. scored third. Tyler Kidwell of Chanute and Muskogee Ok. Driver Dalton Ragsdale completed the top five of the 21 car feature field.
Matthew Kay dominated the 8 car field of the Whitworth Construction Street Stock event. Kay, of Chanute, held off a late race charge from runner up Dalton Garrison from Collinsville Ok. Friday’s feature winner, Cleveland Mo.’s Devin Irvin was third, Chris Kircher from Drexel Mo. was fourth, Iola, Ks driver Brandon Weide was fifth.
17 cars started the Love’s Travel Stops Midwest Modified event. At the checkered, it was Rob Muilenburg of Sparta Mo. taking home the trophy. Fort Scott driver Trever Vann was second, Justin Pearish, Norman Mackley, and Humboldt driver Jackson McGowen completed the top five.
O’Reilly Auto Parts Sport Compact action once again showcased the talent ,Devin Schmidt of Nortonville Ks. who, after Friday night’s feature win, is undefeated at Humboldt in 2020. Barry Luthi of Topeka took second in the 11 car field. Brandon Vink, Allen Jesseph, and Terry “TJ” McDonald filled out the top five.
