Sohl wins Clone Heavy's during Thunder Dome Race #1
Back for its 2nd season inside the Thunder Dome on the Central Iowa Fairgrounds, Full Throttle Promotions was very happy after race 1 as there was 63 entries sign in to do battle. The track was in great shape and drivers were pretty pleased and plan to return to the Thunder Dome meanwhile track crews immediately looked at the issues to take care before the next races.
First feature of the day was the North 3rd Ave Dairy Queen Jr. 2 Pro Heavy in which it was Jamison Hampton from Cedar Falls taking lead and not looking back but not only that Hampton would sweep the day as he would take the heats also on the day.

Bonnett, Carter, VanderBeek and Wood winners at the 25th Annual Musco Lighting Fall Challenge
I made my annual fall trip to the "Mahaska County Monster" the Southern Iowa Speedway for the Silver Anniversary of the Musco Lighting Fall Challenge. This race would also be the last for Track Promotors Todd and Janet Staley.
On Friday Night there was interesting twist to the program as drivers that finished in the top 8 on friday night's features would have the option to take a guaranteed starting spot on saturday or take the money. Most of them would just keep their starting spot for saturday.
Saturday Night would bring another full night of racing with a draw-redraw format. I was well welcomed by Todd Staley when i arrived and want to thank him for letting me attend the event again.
USRA Hobby Stocks was up first for their 25 lap feature. It was the racing veteran Bill Bonnett taking the lead from the pole (a position he earned on friday). It appeared Bonnett would be walking away with the event but then Donavon Nunnikhoven and Clayton Crump would chase him down and make a move on Bonnett on lap 15 and 16. Bonnett didn't give up as he would get back by both of them and take the lead back on lap 24. Bonnett took the win and Nunnikhoven was 2nd. Crump would cross in 3rd but would be diaqualifed in post race tech inspection moving Adam Cline to 3rd, Steve Larson to 4th and Chris Hovden to 5th.
Musco Ligthing USRA Modifieds feature would see the "Z-Man" Zack VanderBeek take the lead from the outside front row. VanderBeek would not be slowed even when he started hitting the lap traffic. The race had 2 race cautions, first one on lap 15, first one was the ambulance and then the 2nd one on lap 16 for Colt Mather getting into the turn 2 wall. VanderBeek would lead the final 9 laps to take the victory, Steve Blattler was 2nd, Ron Ver Beek was 3rd, Kurt Kile was 4th and Bob Timm would end up 5th.
Carter's Manufacturing USRA B-Mods feature would start off wild as Carter Vandenberg would hit a tractor tire down in the bottom of turn 2 and that would send him air borne and would flip 5-7 times before coming to a rest on his wheels. Vandenberg would climb from his car and be okay just a little shaken up, the car however would be destroyed.
When then race got going it was Vandenberg's Cousin Cayden Carter taking the race lead and it appeared nothing was going to slow him down but then another race caution came out on lap 10, this cousin was for Bobby Greene in turn 3. Carter wouldn't let that bother him as again he would start pulling away until the next race caution came out on lap 20 for Gene Claxton in turn 2. Carter and the field would see the caution again 2 laps later for a big tractor tire on the race track in turn 2. Carter would still manage to hold everybody off and take the win which was his 31st win of the year. Bryon Weyer would start 2nd and finish 2nd, Jason Mallicoat was 3rd, Jake Timm was 4th and Jared Timmerman was 5th.
The final feature of the night was the USRA Karl Chevrolet Stock Cars and it was Nathan Wood taking the lead from the outside front row but just after 1 lap was completed the caution would come out for Chad Walter and Dan Christopher would get together in turn 2, Walter would keep going but Christopher would bring out the yellow and be only one sent to the tail. Wood again would resume command but Shane Weller would stay close and behind them there would some great 3 to 4 wide racing battles behind them. The final race caution came out on lap 16 for Dan Christopher in turn 4. Wood would have to now battle with Weller and Jackson the last 9 laps but manage to hold off both of them and take the win. Weller, Jackson, Matt Greiner and Mike Van Genderen would round out the top 5.
Racing would come to an end at 12:17 am putting an end to the tenure of Todd and Janet Staley at the Southern Iowa Speedway as they would look to put their focus on getting the United States Racing Association (USRA) sanctioning body to more tracks around the country. The Southern Iowa Fairboard will be starting a search for a new promotor for the "Mahaska County Monster".
Meanwhile thanks to Todd and Janet Staley for the past several years at the "Mahaska County Monster" and also thanks goes out to Terry and Jenni Hoeing for the past 14 years at Lee County Speedway. I have had a chance to meet all of you and you are all very friendly to everybody.

On Friday Night there was interesting twist to the program as drivers that finished in the top 8 on friday night's features would have the option to take a guaranteed starting spot on saturday or take the money. Most of them would just keep their starting spot for saturday.
Saturday Night would bring another full night of racing with a draw-redraw format. I was well welcomed by Todd Staley when i arrived and want to thank him for letting me attend the event again.
USRA Hobby Stocks was up first for their 25 lap feature. It was the racing veteran Bill Bonnett taking the lead from the pole (a position he earned on friday). It appeared Bonnett would be walking away with the event but then Donavon Nunnikhoven and Clayton Crump would chase him down and make a move on Bonnett on lap 15 and 16. Bonnett didn't give up as he would get back by both of them and take the lead back on lap 24. Bonnett took the win and Nunnikhoven was 2nd.

Duffy takes Checkers, Elliott wins HDT Tour Title on Night #2 of the Havoc on the High Banks
Night number two would bring us a lot of great racing action as we would have 7 classes in competition. This night would not disappoint the fans that were in attendance at all. Fans also learned the Sport Compacts will be added to the speedway weekly in 2012.

In the Mike's Hard Lemonade IMCA Stock Cars feature it was Dave Atcher taking the lead early but then the caution would fly on lap 2 and 3. Atcher would still remain out front but Jay Schmidt would make the bottom side work and make the pass for the lead on lap 6. Schmidt would hold the lead until the caution waved again on lap 13. On the restart, Jay Schmidt would have to deal with 19th place starter Brian Irvine, Irvine would make the pass and take the top spot. Irvine and the field would see the caution flag fly again on lap 14, 15 and 17 but would manage to cruise on to the win. Schmidt would finish 2nd with 24th place starter Damon Murty in 3rd, Atcher in 4th and Andy Bryant in 5th.
The final feature of the night was the JR Motorsports Hawkeye Dirt Tour IMCA Modifieds, a feature that would bring us 3 and 4 wide racing through the 30 laps. Mark Elliott would take the early lead only to see the caution come out after completion of lap 1 and 2. Elliott would have himself in a 5 car battle for the top spot on lap 6 but continue to lead it. Elliott would lead it depsite a caution on lap 13 but the caution on la 16 would change things. Elliott would be passed by Adam Larson on the restart, Larson's lead was short lived as Darin Duffy would get by on lap 21. Duffy would manage to take the win despite cautions on lap 23 and 24. Finishing behind Duffy was Jon Snyder, Todd Shute, Adam Larson and Richie Gustin. Mark Elliott would finish 6th but end up with the JR Motorsports Hawkeye Dirt Tour Championship.

May would experience mechanical troubles a lap later on lap 5 and then the first race caution came out on lap 6. Zehm would be the leader once again and end up going on to the win despite a caution with 3 laps to go. Tim Hennigar would finish 2nd, Colby Oberembt came home 3rd, Joel Huggins was 4th and James May in 5th.
In the Toby K's Hideaway IMCA Hobby Stocks feature it was Scott Pippert leading the first lap but then the first race caution came out stacking the field up. On the restart, Devin Smith would make the pass on Pippert and take the lead. Smith would start encountering lap traffic and then the yellow flew again on laps 10 and 12. Smith would cruise on to the win with Kevin Fee in 2nd, Pippert in 3rd, Brandon Brinton in 4th and Austin Luellen in 5th.
Big 8 Tyre Center IMCA Sports Mods would have to use some heats and b mains to set the field. Cayden Carter would take the early race lead and not look back in the caution filled feature event. Austin Kaplan would finish 2nd, Doug Smith would start in 21st and end up in 3rd. Jenae Gustin started 14th and finish 4th and Tyler Droste would end up 5th.
Mike's Hard Lemonade IMCA Stock Cars feature would live up to the nickname of "Class To Tough To Tame" as there would be great door-to-door battle through out the 20 lapper. Before the event got started though the caution would come out forcing a complete restart. When the race got going there would be great racing up front between Brian Irvine and Damon Murty. Murty would take the lead early but would race side-by-side with Irvine every lap. Irvine would make a move and a pass of the lead on lap 11. Murty tried to come back but it fell short as Irvine would end up taking the win. Murty finished 2nd, Donavon Smith in 3rd, Jay Schmidt was 4th and Steve Meyer in 5th.
The final feature of the night was the JR Motorsports Hawkeye Dirt Tour IMCA Modifieds for 30 laps. Pole Sitter Richie Gustin would take the lead and seem impossible to take it from him even though 4 race cautions including 1 with 3 laps to go when 2nd place Jon Snyder would see his engine expire. Gustin would take the win with Ronn Lauritzen, Vern Jackson, Darin Duffy and Jacob Murray rounding out the top 5.
Racing action resumes tomorrow night at the Marshalltown Speedway with Night #2 of the 5th Annual Havoc on the High Banks as we will add the Karl Chevrolet Dirt Trucks and IMCA Sport Compacts to the card.
