I-35 Speedway
Dylan Vore-Track Announcer
With a rain-shortened race night, I-35 Speedway had a packed grandstand and fast cars in every class on Saturday night. This Saturday night was also Racin for Rian night at the races, in memory of Rian Bree Wilson. During the heat races the Bud Wilson Racing Family collected donations for the St. Lukes NICU Family Fund in memory of Rian, and also sponsored a free-to-enter drawing for Fan of the Week. With every heat race completed, we wasted no time getting the feature races started.
In the E-mod feature, Casey Burnett held off a charging Kameron Hanes and Aaron Jones to take home the feature win. In Jr. Sport Compacts, Grant Sheetz passed Payton Hanes on the last lap to take home the feature win, Sheetz 10th win of the year. As we rolled the Pure Stock feature onto the track, the rain hit. James Silkwood won Heat 1 in the Pure Stocks, and Johnnie Price took home Heat 2.
In USRA Modifieds, Lee Hibner won tonight’s Heat race. In USRA B-mods, Lonnie Hibner collected the win in Heat 1, while Chris Wright won Heat 2. The USRA Stock Car heat races had Chris Dishong winning Heat 1 and Doug Keller in Heat 2. Jonathon Hartman won Heat 1 in the Sport Compacts and Alvin Cooney was the Heat 2 winner.
We welcomed back Midwest Limited Late Models this Saturday night, as Mark Dotson collected the win in Heat 1. We also welcomed back our Vintage series, as Mike Lefholz was the heat race winner.
Our track officials did everything they could to get the track dry enough to complete the feature races, but the rain was too much. Thank you to the race fans that toughed out the weather the entire night, and to all the drivers for bringing another exciting show to I-35 Speedway. Please continue to check our Facebook page for updates on completing the remaining feature races. Full results for 6/22/24 posted below:
