Marshalltown postponed the World Nationals to October 24th through 26th meaning if I wanted to go racing this week, the options was down to Brooklyn Raceway for their Nationals, Knoxville Raceway for the Late Model Knoxville Nationals, Shelby County Speedway in Harlan for the Tiny Lund Memorial. The decision was easy as Brooklyn Raceway has always welcomed me to come down take pictures and write a blog so on Friday Night I made the nearly 1 hr trip.
Brooklyn Raceway was hosting the Fall Nationals sponsored by Lakeside Hotel & Casino and 110 entries checked in to tame the circle and figure 8 tracks. The Mechanics also took to the track after the features in all divisions were completed in the Mechanic Races.
First feature of the night was the Micro Sprints feature event saw the caution come out before lap one was scored when Joe Dent spun in turn three. When the race got going it was Jeremy Snow grabbing the race lead but that would be short lived as the caution came out for Morgan Dennis in turn four. Travis Rewerts was able to use the restart to advantage and take over the top spot away. The red flag came out a few laps later when Dent took a tumble in turn three after contact with Tyler Lee. Rewerts was not fazed as he cruised on to to take the win ahead of Owen Carlson, Jeremy Snow, Cole Elton and Dennis.
Matt Pool led from start to finish in the Front Wheel Drive feature that went caution free. Pool held off several challenges from James Harring the entire race. Harring finished second, Chris Bozarth was third, Wade King was fourth and Tyler Harring was fifth.
In the Cruiser Cars, Ray Hill and Austin Schuring looked to be heading on to the win until lap traffic slowed him down that allowed Jacob and Laverne Lehman to chase them down. Lehman and Lehman used the lap car to get by Hill and Schuring coming to the white flag and they would hold on to take the win. Hill and Schuring was second ahead of Duane and Jesse Zander, Nick Runyan and Robert Jones, Dakota Tutle and Bryan Swarts.
Dalton Sowers led the entire Junior Front Wheel Drive feature despite challenges from Jordan Ford. Ford finished second, Kole Adams was third, Dylan Zack was fourth and Brady Austin was fifth.
Brooklyn Henderson grabbed the lead early in the Hobby Stocks feature but just after the completion of lap two, the caution came out for Jeremiah Andrews in turn four. Henderson continued to lead despite Jacob Lehman and Travis Fenton battling right behind her those two cars would get together in turn one and bring out another caution. Henderson led until Bruce Kline was able to work his way to the top spot. Kline went on to take the win, Leroy Kline finished second, Fenton finished third, Brandon Long was fourth and Morgan Kline was fifth.
Open Figure 8 class was next and it was Bradly Graham taking the early lead but then experience issues forcing him to the pits that gave the lead over Jerrod Thompson. Thompson led the remaining laps to take the win ahead of Jesse Sanders, Nic Runyan, Alan Scholton and Ted Armstrong.
In Stock Figure 8 class saw the Vandermolen's ran one and two the entire race. Josh Vandermolen grabbed the race lead but just after lap one, the red flag came out for Daryl Cavin got caught up on a tractor tire in turn three and four. Josh Vandermolen went on to take the win ahead with Mike Vandemolen finishing second. Anthony Goldsberry finished third, Rick Goldsberry was fourth and Zach Danner was fifth.
Final feature of the night was the Pro Stock Figure 8 class saw Aaron "Rowdy" Roudabush led from start to finish in the feature that went caution free. Brad Graham finished runner-up, Clayton Danner was third, Kyle Richardson was fourth and Butch Lester was fifth.
Mechanic Races took to the track after the features and in Mechanic Race number one it was Connor Fraker winning in Kyle Richardson's car and Mechanic Race number two it was a mystery driver in Brandon Long's hot rod.
Night number two of the Brooklyn Nationals sponsored by Lakeside Hotel and Casino will get underway at 6 pm. For More information check out brooklynraceway.org or Brooklyn Raceway on Facebook.
