Reed, DeLonjay, Huls, Powers and Abbott Take Quincy Checkers
By Jack Walbring
QUINCY,
IL (July 17, 2011) - Justin Reed, Steven DeLonjay, Abe Huls, Jake
Powers and Kimberly Abbott all took feature event wins during Poage
Auto Plaza & Ursa Farmer Coop Night at the Races at Quincy Raceways on
Sunday, July 17.
Denny
Woodworth blasted into the lead of the Budweiser IMCA Late Model main
event from his fourth row starting spot on the fourth lap and looked
to be on his way to his second points feature win of the season but
Justin Reed had other ideas. Woodworth worked the high line to pull
out to a comfortable margin but Reed made the low groove work as he
slowly reeled in Woodworth by the eighteenth lap. Reed made the pass
for the lead on lap nineteen and pulled away to a comfortable margin
to claim his second points feature event win of the season. Reed’s win
pulled him into a one point lead in the standings over Lonnie Bailey.
Woodworth held on for second followed by Joey Gower in third, Keith
Pratt in fourth and Matt Bailey in fifth. Pratt and Matt Bailey were
the heat race winners.
Eighteen Miller Lite UMP Modifieds signed in to do battle Sunday
evening and it was a wild main event as several caution periods
brought the action to a stop in turn one. Steven DeLonjay started the
main event on the outside of row two and inherited the lead on lap
three after early leader Troy Grotz spun to bring out a caution flag.
DeLonjay then proceeded to dominate the field to take his sixth
feature win of the season. Jared Schlipman made a valiant charge to
catch the fleet DeLonjay but had to settle for second followed by Tony
Dunker in third, Vance Wilson in fourth and Jim Roach in fifth.
DeLonjay, Dave Wietholder and Steve Grotz were the heat race winners.
Abe
Huls too the lead from his third row starting spot on lap two and held
back a hard charging Aaron Brocksieck to take the win in the Triple R
Performance Engines IMCA Stock Car main event. Huls worked the bottom
groove to perfection with Brocksieck charging hard on the cushion to
take a three tenths of a second win. The third spot went to Kevin
Tomlinson followed by Andrew Griffin in fourth and Terry Houston in
fifth. Andrew Griffin took the lone heat race win.
Jake
Powers used his outside front row starting spot to his advantage as he
jumped into the lead on the second lap only to find Nathan Anders
nipping at his heals in the KRNQ Pepsi Inside Track Hobby Stock main
event.. Anders slipped past Powers for the lead on the sixth lap and
held the top spot for until Powers powered by on lap eleven to regain
the lead. Powers then held off Anders for the remaining laps to take
his first feature event win of the 2011 season over Anders in second,
Steve Carlin in third, Nathan Hayes in fourth and Tanner Klingele in
fifth. Powers and Brandon Symmonds were the heat race winners.
Kimberly Abbott picked up her first ever feature event win in the
Summy Tire & Auto Center Wild Things but she had to really work hard
for the win. Austin led the first two circuits but Abbott got by for
the lead on lap three. She then held Uppinghouse at bay for the next
six laps until Seth Woodruff, who recovered from a turn one incident
earlier in the race, powered into the second spot on lap ten. Woodruff
held onto second until the final lap when Todd Nelson powered into the
runner up spot. Woodruff settled for third followed by
Thomas Angelo in fourth and Uppinghouse in
fifth. Robert Thompson and Casey Kendrick were the heat race winners.
