Bailey, Wietholder,
Brocksieck, Dunker, Hoener and Abbott Claim Feature Wins at Quincy
By Jack Walbring
QUINCY, IL (April 8, 2012) - Easter Sunday
brought about some of the best racing ever at Quincy Raceways as Matt
Bailey laid claim to the feature win in the UMP Super Late Model
division after a hard fought battle with Bobby Pierce. Dustin Griffin
took the early lead in the 30 lap main event from his pole position
starting spot and looked to be on his way to victory by a lap
seventeen caution flag brought the field back together with Bobby
Pierce grabbing the top spot on the restrart with Griffin falling to
third behind Matt Bailey in second. Pierce held Bailey at bay until
lap twenty seven when Bailey powered by on the high side to take
a slim lead. Bailey held on for two circuits until Pierce pulled a
clean slide job in turn one and two heading to the white flag but
Bailey grabbed the lead by with a bold outside pass on the final lap
to claim his first UMP Super Late Model feature event victory. Pierce
held on for second followed by Griffin in third, Justin Reed in fourth
and Brandon Sheppard in fifth. Griffin and Sheppard were the heat race
winners with Griffin taking the win in the Summy Tire and Auto Center
Dash.
The Miller Lite UMP Modified main event was
another real barnburner as David Wietholder held off a very determined
Michael Long over the final fifteen laps of the twenty five lap main
event. Wietholder lead evey lap but had to hold back Long in a closely
contested contest over the final laps with Wietholder taking the
checkered flag only .056 of a second ahead of Long. Third went to
Robbie Reed followed by Steven DeLonjay in fourth and Jared Schlipman
in fifth. DeLonjay, Reed and John Coultas were the heat race winners.
Aaron Brocksieck took the lead in the IMCA Stock
Car main event on the second circuit and dominated the rest of the way
to the checkered flag to take his first win of the season. Terry
Houston battled his way into the second spot at the checkered flag
followed by Jerry Jansen in third, Michael Larson in fourth and Darin
Weisinger in fifth. Houston took the lone heat race win.
Jim Gillenwater took the early lead in the Summy
Tire and Auto Center IMCA SportMod main event at the drop of the green
flag and looked strong to take the feature event win but after a
restart on lap seven, Gillenwater suffered engine woes giving the lead
over to Tony Dunker. Dunker then went on to a dominating victory in
the twenty lapper followed by Brandon Ruffcorn in second, Joe Bliven
in third, Brad Holtmeyer in fourth and Brandon Dale in fifth.
Gillenwater and Dunker were the heat race winners.
Brian Hoener took his first ever Hobby Stock
feature event win in dominating fashion by holding off Jeremy Buss in
second, Jake Powers in third, Brandon Symmonds in fourth and Nathan
Hayes in fifth. Hoener and Buss were the heat race winners.
Kimberly Abbott took the feature event win in
the wild and crazy IMCA Sport Compact division by holding off several
different challengers during the event. The second spot went to Andrew
Davis followed by Seith Woodruff in third, Chuck Fullenkamp in fourth
and Mike Hornung Jr. in fifth. Davis and Fullenkamp were the heat race
winners.
