I then headed off to the Speedway which is about 1.7 miles from Slideways for the Harris Clash and full pit area of race cars that they ran out of room to put cars but they managed and it was time to go racing on the half mile. During the heat races they used a passing points system.
First feature of the night was the IMCA SportMods 20 lap feature and it as Joel Rust from Grundy Center taking the early lead, a lead he would hold on to until lap 11 when 2009 Harris Clash Winner Matt Lettow would get by. Lettow would start to pull away and then the caution came out on lap 18 for Jason Mallicoat in turn 4. Lettow took the win, Rust finished 2nd, 2011 Winner Jesse Sobbing would end up finishing 3rd, Tyler Droste was 4th and Carter VanDenBerg was 5th.
In the IMCA Modifieds 25 lap feature it was "The Highside Tickler" Kyle Strickler from North Carolina continuing right were he left off the night before in Osky and that was on the bottom side. Strickler drove the bottom and but Jeremy Mills was up on the cushion. Strickler and Mills would battle for the lead but it would be Strickler holding on until lap 24 when Mills would get his nose out front but on the last lap Strickler would slide up the race track and block Mills to take the win. Strickler's 2nd win in iowa and 22nd win on the season. Jeremy Mills was 2nd, Shane DeMey was 3rd, Jon Snyder was 4th and Mike Van Genderen was 5th.
With Strickler's win that meant the chassis Manufacturer winner was Harris Auto Racing of Boone.
Thanks go out to Chuck Stowe, Toby Kruse, Bob Harris, Bobby Harris and the Knoxville Raceway for letting me to attend a great night of racing and thanks to the guys i mentioned earlier!
