RUN FROM THE BACK AT HUMBOLDT

15 B-MODS

STARTED 13TH

FINISHED 6TH

Kenton drew the biggest pill and had to start 7th in the 2nd and final heat race.  He finished 7th as well.  It was hard to pass and the car was not set up right.  The crew went to work to get it better for the A.  He started inside row 8.  He quickly started passing cars and the 2 yellow flags helped out as well.  He ended up 6th in the 16-lap feature, just short of another top 5.  Kenton will be back at Caney Valley Speedway tonight.  Hope to see you there!

McGowan paces USRA B-Mod thriller on hot night in Humboldt
 
July 10, 2020  |  by Scott Lee StewartBrian McGowan won the USRA B-Mod main event.

It was a hot night at The Hummer on Friday night and the racing action was even hotter.

The grand finale of the evening at the Humboldt Speedway was the USRA B-Mod feature, and what a show it was.

The front row had Nick Atherton of Bartlesville, Okla., on the pole with Brian McGowen of Pittsburg on his outside.

Directly behind McGowen was Tyler Kidwell and a dozen other hot shoes, all of whom were contenders for the top spot.

From the drop of the green, racing was absolutely furious. Atherton and McGowen swapped the early lead numerous times with literally the entire field in third.

McGowen eventually wrestled the lead away and set sail.

Then it became wheel-to-wheel combat between Atherton and Kidwell for second featuring several spectacular slide jobs and close calls.

Just as Kidwell gained the upper hand, a caution flag flew and tightened up the field for one last blast of excitement.

McGowen prevailed for the win with runner-up Kidwell right on his bumper.

Atherton claimed third with Jerry Morgan of Fort Scott fourth and Matthew Kay fifth.
