Lebanon, Oregon- The 2020 season came to a close at Willamette Speedway on Saturday, October 24th, with the Ice Cube Cup. The event had six classes in action including Super Late Models, IMCA Modifieds, Super Sports, Sportsman, Street Stocks, and Hornets. The Sport Mods were also on hand too and were combined with the Sportsman division.
Salem’s Doug Elkins once more conquered the Super Late Model class. Elkins won for the second straight week and is tied for the most Late Model wins of the year. Teenager Eston Whisler and Bryan Norton were second and third. Steve Moore wound up fourth over fifth finishing Randy Barley.
Bricen James achieved his fifth IMCA Modified triumph at Willamette Speedway. James, of Albany, has six overall wins in 2020 and topped the table for most victories in the state of Oregon. Grey Ferrando ended the night second while Craig Cassell posted a third. The balance of the top five consisted of Jake Mayden, in fourth, and Paul Rea, in fifth.
The winning combination for Steve Moore and car owner B.J. Donofrio continued in the Super Sports. The Scio chauffeur amazingly recorded his fifth consecutive feature win. Terry Sanders was the runner-up while Greg Heinrichs finished behind him in third. Shane Davis hit the wire fourth while fifth went to Tony Goddard.
For the Sportsman division, Clay Debban reigned supreme. The Shedd gasser scored his first win of the current campaign and became the fifth different winner in the class. Doug Coffman was second with third going to Ryan Emry. Sandy Sanders and Daniel Ray were fourth and fifth.
Another new face graced victory lane. Dakota Godard, from Albany and racing for car owner Phil Lovvorn, became the eighth different pilot to win at Willamette this year. Joey Tardio crossed the finish line second over third finishing P.J. Humphrey. Don Croy placed fourth with fifth credited to Kevin Scofield.
Lastly, were the Hornets. And just like the Sportsman and Street Stocks there would be a brand new winner on the year. Corvallis’ Matthew Emry put together a magnificent run to record the victory and the sixth different Hornet winner in 2020. Second was James Skeslien with James Nagel ending the race third. Cheyenne McDonald wound up fourth and Nicole Emry got fifth.
