Droste Wins On a Last Lap Pass to Take the Win on Budweiser Night

Great racing action greeted racing fans with some great racing action. There was 89 race cars signed in to do battle on Budweiser Night at the Marshalltown Speedway.

O'Reilly Auto Parts Mod Lites were up first for 15 laps and it was Charlie Brown taking the lead from the pole and didn't look back. The only thing that slowed him was the caution that came out on lap 2 when Tim Hennigar blew up and came to a stop on the run off road meanwhile in turn 1, Josh May, James May and Kevin Grisham got together which resulted in James May to roll but May would continue meanwhile Josh May and Kevin Grisham would go to the pits. Brown would still go on and take the win, Colby Oberembt took 2nd, Mike Morrill was 3rd, Andy Hennigar was 4th and Joel Huggins was 5th.

Before one lap would be completed in the Toby K's Hideaway IMCA Hobby Stocks 12 lap feature the caution would come out for debris on the front stretch. When the race got going it was Jake Nelson leading the first 3 laps before Kevin Fee would get by and went on to the feature win. Michael Murphy would get by Nelson for 2nd, Nelson would beat Eric Knutson by a bumper for 3rd and Jennifer Hulin would finish behind Knutson for 5th.

Big 8 Tyre Center IMCA Sport Mods 15 lap feature would be caution filled in the first 2 thirds of the race. Tom Rawlins would lead the first 2 laps before Carter Vandenberg would get by and take the lead. Vandenberg would get past by Cayden Carter on lap 9. Carter looked to be going on to the win but Tyler Droste would chase him down and on the last lap make a pass and take the win from Carter. Finishing behind Droste was Carter, Scott Davis, Vandenberg and Brad Iverson.

Mike's Hard Lemonade IMCA Stock Cars feature saw three, four, five and one point six wide racing. "The Silver Bullet" Andy Bryant would take the lead early. Bryant would be passed by Jeff Wollam on lap 7 but Wollam's lead was short lived as Damon Murty would get by the next lap. The only thing that slowed Murty was a caution on lap 12. Murty would go on and take the win, Wollam took 2nd, Trent Murphy, Tracy Gienger and Curt Hook would finish 3rd through 5th.

The final feature was the Meskwaki Bingo Casino Hotel IMCA Modifieds and Andrew Kinser would lead the first lap but Jon Snyder would make the pass for the lead on lap 2. Snyder would use the bottom line around the race track, lap traffic and the only race caution on lap 16 would be the things that slowed Snyder. Snyder would go on and take the win, Ronn Lauritzen, Danny Fetters, Brett Ladehoff and Scott Simatovich would round out the top 5.
