Kerry Davis Blasts To Modified Win, Bidinger Seems Unbeatable and Ryun Comes Home With Factory Stock Win
Kansas City, KS - So far this season, Lakeside Speedway has held 5 Modified races and out of those 5 races, we have had 5 different winners. Tonight it was Kerry Davis' turn at the top spot. A victory that has been around the corner for this successful team and it was an impressive victory on the night.
"I got a good starting spot, third row, you know," said Davis, "got a good jump on the start. After a few laps of leading it, I thought I was going to lose the line. The lapped cars helped me out in trying different lines, but this one is for my dad, buddy!"
Davis raced like a driver possessed. He worked his way to the front quickly, but he kept his Hughes Chassis on high speed as he worked his way into lapped traffic. Searching low and high Davis found any line that he chose to be the fast line around the speedway. By the time it was all said and done, Davis had lapped all the way up to 9th place on the speedway, Tom Charles.
"We got a new Hughes car we took a chance on," said Davis, "they are tried and true. We have a guy (Jason Hughes) that helps us a ton, but my father he is the s$&t!"
Davis was the class of the field up front, but a lot of the fans at Lakeside Speedway noticed the run of the current points leader Chad Lyle. Lyle started in the 22nd spot and when the checkered flag came down on the field he was in the 2nd position. A strong finish to a long night of racing. Lyle started with a poor finish in the heat, that forced him to the B and out of the B he came back with this strong finish.
Another one of those drivers having a strong run from the mid pack was John Allen. Allen began the feature in the 14th spot and came home in 3rd. Fourth went to Cody Owens and rounding out the top 5 was Bubba Harvey.
