Corning, IA (June 27th, 2015) – Thirty-nine drivers were on hand for the running of the Annual Ray Houck Liberty 50. Three lead changes took place during the main event. Once out front Jesse Stovall set a blistering pace to score the win. It was his second in the last three Lucas Oil MLRA visits to Adams County Speedway and earned the #00 team $5,000.

“What a race car,” exclaimed Stovall in Andy’s Frozen Custard Victory Lane. “I just throw something different at it every night. This hot rod, I knew when I brought this thing here I’d have something to contend with.”

Bill Leighton brought the field to the green flag from the DirtOnDirt.com pole, and nine time Adams County Speedway track champion Chris Spieker jumped out front. A couple of quick yellows early slowed the pace but once back underway, Kyle Berck dove underneath Spieker and took over control of the race.

A few laps later, Spieker and Berck made contact and opened the door for Stovall who never looked back. Third starting Earl Pearson Jr. fell back early, but rallied as the race wore on. Driving the Moring Motorsports #1, Pearson made it to second and closed the distance between he and Stovall late in the feature to less than one second at the finish.

Chris Spieker held on for third, with Friday’s winner Kyle Berck fourth. Ryan Gustin made a late race pass on Billy Moyer to earn fifth.

Terry Phillips continues to ride at the top of the championship standings with a 28 point cushion over Ryan Gustin. Stovall’s string of performances this season have shot him up to fourth in the current standings. Mechanical trouble cut his opening weekend short, but since then he has only finished outside of the top three once, with three wins to his credit.

A special thanks is also in order for Malvern Bank. They donated an additional $2,500 throughout the feature event purse.

The four qualifying heat races were won by Bill Leighton, Jason O’Brien, Earl Pearson Jr. and Kyle Berck. Next weekend the Lucas Oil MLRA will be right back at it with Friday and Saturday races at the state-of-the-art Salina High Banks Speedway in Salina, Oklahoma.
