Bunch, Pickett and Klosterman Take First Wins at Boone Speedway

Saturday was set to mark the end of the 25th season at the Hancock County Speedway with the Bob Shryock Memorial Night of All-Stars sponsored by Lake Mills Motorsports and Bayer Crop Science however mother nature had other plans as nearly 3/4 inch of rain fell in the morning forcing to cancellation. This also meant the track would now have to find a new promoter to take over as 4 Wide Promotions turned in their notice ending their time as promoters.

After driving home unloading all my stuff after Nights of Stars Weekend, I made the decision to head over to the Boone Speedway for the Sport Compact Super Nationals Tune Up and Cruiser Car Tag Team Championships.

First feature of the night was the IMCA Sport Compacts 15 lap feature event. Kaytee Devries has dominated in Northwest Iowa and it was no surprise to see her in commend early on Saturday Night. Devries led comfortably until the caution came out on lap five when Korey Lana blew up and Spun on the backstretch. Devries led until lap eight when Mitchell Bunch was able to wrestle the lead away. Bunch went on to take the Super National Tune Up Win ahead of Devries, Devin Jones, Riley Paysen and Jay Devries.

Jeff Stensland led all 15 laps of the My Race Pass Mod Lites feature event with his son Travis Stensland running second. Terry Brown finished third, Mike Kennedy was fourth and Bryan Zehm was fifth in the feature that went caution free.

In the Elmquist Towing IMCA Northern Sport Mods 18 lap feature, Bryan Johnson grabbed the lead but Dusty Masolini did not go away and he wrestled the lead away on lap three. Shortly after the caution came out when Tommy Hensley spun in turn three. Masolini held the top spot until a caution came out on lap seven for Dustin Lynch, Bill Wears, Tony Olson and Hunter Longnecker in turn two. On the restart, Masolini had Johnathon Logue and Jake McBirnie on his back bumper with McBirnie grabbing the lead away. McBirnie went on to take the win with only a caution on lap 13 for Billy Dyer in turn two slowing him down late. Logue, Cory Pestotnik, Doug Smith and Masolini round out the top five. Hensley won the Elmquist Towing Dash for Cash.

The Snap-On Tools IMCA Modifieds 20 lap feature was next. Austin Kuehl grabbed the lead early from his outside front row starting spot but was chased by Jimmy Gustin, Jeremy Mills and Tim Ward. The first caution came out on lap six when Eric Elliott slid off the top side of turn three. Kuehl continued to lead until Tim Ward decided to go to the topside. Ward took the lead away on lap 13 and set sail only to see the caution come out on lap 14 for Robert Avery in turn two. Ward got a great restart and never looked back going on to take his second feature win of the year in Boone. Gustin, Mills, Kuehl and Joel Rust was second through fifth respectively.


Tyler Pickett took the lead away on lap five from Jesse Smith in the Arnold Motor Supply IMCA Stock Cars 18 lap feature event. Pickett went on to take his first win of the season despite a caution on lap nine for Robert Stofer in turn three. Bryan Snell challenged Pickett several times but settled for second. Devin Smith finished third, Todd Reitzler was fourth and Jesse Smith was fifth.

Before a single lap was completed in the Pickett Salvage IMCA Hobby Stocks 15 lap feature event, the caution came out for David Wright and Nick Foster in turn two. Shane Butler led the opening lap before William Klosterman took the lead away on lap two. Klosterman and the field saw the caution come out on lap three for Bryce Sommerfeld in turn one and Caden Lowmiller in turn four.  Klosterman was able to fend off the field on the restart to go on and take his first win. Curt Reed, Shaun Wirtz, Eric Knutson and Aaron Rudolph rounded out the top five.

Donny Mason and Carl Agan continued their winning ways in the 2 Man Cruisers to take home the Tag Team Trophy Belts by grabbing the lead away on lap three of ten.

Boone Speedway continues next Saturday Night with Modifieds, Stock Cars, Sport Mods, Hobby Stocks and Mod Lites. Hot Laps at 6:15pm, Racing to Follow.
