Home cookin’ deals Kay a SLMR win at Davenport

DAVENPORT, Ia. (June 18, 2021) – Friday was the fifth time the ‘Hauling with Hoker’ Super Late Model Racing Series has competed at the Davenport Speedway. Until today, only out of town racers have taken home the trophy. … Until today.

The fifty lap A-Main started with front row starter Spencer Diercks getting out front early and dug up quite a lead. Justin Kay started 14th and slowly worked his way towards the front. Both drivers were using the high side of the track. As Kay closed in on Diercks, he switched to the bottom and took the lead on lap 35.

Once in front, Justin had to deal with heavy lapped traffic. Kay went onto take the win with a three second gap over second place Diercks. Jason Hahne, Charlie McKenna, and Chad Holladay ran top five all race and finished third through fifth in that order.

Late Model heat race wins went to Jeff Aikey, Jeff Tharp, Joel Callahan, and Todd Cooney. Darin Duffy won the B-Main. Jason Hahne set quick time in qualifying.

A bunch of cautions and a red flag led to a stop-and-go Eriksen Chevrolet IMCA Modified feature. But it didn’t stop Travis Denning from recording his first Modified feature win at Davenport this season. Denning fended off Jason Pershy and Mitch Morris in the first half of the race. In the final laps it was Bryce Garnhart applying the pressure. Garnhart took second with Eric Barnes third. Brad Dierks and Austin Blume rounded out the top five.

Adam Birck looked to be the man to beat in IMCA SportMod action. Birck started fifth and took the lead on lap three. He would hold the top spot until lap nine when he pulled off the race track. That opened the door for Jarrett Franzen. Franzen started 12th but would take the lead on lap ten and lead the rest of the way to the checkers. Tyler Soppe followed Franzen to the front but would have to settle for second. Brandon Jewell, Ryan Walker, and Aaron Hitt finished third through fifth respectively.

Tony VonDresky took the checkers in a spirited Koehler Electric Street Stock feature. Frank Waters led early but was passed by Nick Hixson on lap three. VonDresky used a lap ten restart to grab the lead and led the rest of way to the checkers. Hixson held on for second.

As exciting as the race for the lead was, the action was in the middle of the pack was more intense, bringing out two late race cautions. Following the leaders to the finish were Jake Lund in third, with Jesse Owen and Frank Waters taking fourth and fifth respectively.

Dustin Begyn, driving the #53, dominated the QCjeeps.com Sport Compact main. Cyle Hawkins was making a bid for the lead but had a tire go flat, dropping him back to a fifth place finish. Tim Sibley came in second, with Todd Sibley third. Wayne Cox finished fourth.

K Promotions continues to keep the pedal to the metal in 2021. Next Friday, June 25, the Sprint Invaders return to Davenport Speedway to take on the quarter-mile oval. Weekly classes will also be in action, but no IMCA Late Models.

Thursday, July 1st, the DirtCar Summernationals come to the Davenport Speedway for the first time in twenty years.
