Reed Grabs First UMP Super
Late Model Win at Quincy
By Jack Walbring
QUINCY, IL (April 1, 2012) - Justin Reed, Steven
DeLonjay, Abe Huls, Tony Dunker, Jake Griffin and Chuck Fullenkamp all
took feature event wins at Quincy Raceways on the opening night of the
2012 race season on April 1.
Brandon Sheppard looked to be a shoe-in winner
in the first UMP Super Late Model main event for the 2012 season but
2011 Quincy Raceways IMCA Late Model Track Champion Justin Reed had
other ideas. Sheppard took the win in the Summy Tire and Auto Center
Dash to start the main event on the pole with Michael Long on his
outside. Sheppard took the early lead with Long in tow but by lap six,
Reed worked his way into the second position. Reed then slowly crept
up on Sheppard and on lap fourteen managed to take over the top spot
as Sheppard began to fade. Reed then pulled out to a several car
length lead as Mark Burgtorf worked his way up to challenge Sheppard
and on the nineteenth circuit took over the second spot but Sheppard
was not giving in easily as he rallied to take back second on the
twenty nineth lap. Reed scored the win with Sheppard in second,
Burgtorf in third, Matt Bailey in fourth and Michael Long in fifth.
The heat race winners were Schott Schmitt, Burgtorf and Jim Moon.
Steven DeLonjay made a big statement as he took
the win in the Miller Lite UMP Modified main event. Michael Long
jumped into the lead of the twenty five lap main event from his pole
starting spot and held off Troy Grotz for the first twelve laps until
a multi car accident took Grotz out of contention. DeLonjay had
started the feature event in the sixth row and had steadily worked his
way through the field and restarted in the second spot after the lap
thirteen caution. DeLonjay kept up the pressure on Long and on the
twenty second lap he managed to slip past Long to take over the top
position. DeLonjay then pulled away for the win followed by Long in
second, Robbie Reed in third, Donovan Lodge in fourth and James Leffew
in fifth. Jared Schlipman, Reed and Long were the heat race winners.
Abe Huls grabbed the lead of the IMCA Stock Car
feature event on the sixth lap and held off a pesky Terry Houston to
take the first IMCA Stock Car feature win of the season. Houston
settled for second followed by Jerry Jansen in third, Jeff Mueller in
fourth and Ty Hill in fifth. Aaron Brocksieck and Huls were the heat
race winners.
Tony Dunker took the win in the Summy Tire and
Auto Center IMCA Northern SportMod main event but Dunker had to hold
off a very determined field to take the win. Dean Kratzer put the
pressure on Dunker for most of the main event before slipping back on
the last lap to third as young Tanner Klingele took over the second
spot as the checkered flag fell. The fourth spot went to Bobby Anders
followed by Joe Bliven in fifth. Jim Gillenwater and Klingele were the
heat race winners.
Jake Powers held off Jeremy Buss to take the win
in the Hobby Stock feature event. Powers took the lead on the third
lap and held Buss at bay for the remainder of the twenty laps followed
by Travis Booher in third, Nathan Hayes in fourth and Jamie Bevill in
fifth. Jim Powell and Tanner Klingele were the heat race winners.
The IMCA Sport Compacts may have gotten a new
name and sanction for 2012 but the action was just about a crazy as
the 2011 “Wild Things” division were in the past. Chuck Fullenkamp
took the feature win over Seith Woodruff in second, Andrew Davis in
third, Brandon Lambert in fourth and Kimberly Abbott in fifth. Craig
Bangert and Woodruff were the heat race winners.
