Lincoln, Ill. (Aug. 21) – Sherman, Ill. driver Chad Branson cruised to his first career Outlaw Wingless Sprint Car win at Lincoln Speedway in Lincoln, Ill. Branson toured the Logan County Fairgrounds ¼-mile ahead of veteran Terry Babb in the red-plagued 20-lapper. Pole starter Bill Schemonia, Bill Waite, Jr., and Erik Close provided action of the driver-unfriendly sort and all walked away from separate flips. Points leader Korey Weyent, current runner-up Bret Tripplett, and Manny Rockhold followed Branson and Babb in the top five.
Mike Chasteen entered the last lap third and took home the UMP Modified 20-lapper. An ARCA-themed battle pitted former Miler Randy Huffman and points leader Kelly Kovski, fresh off his inaugural start in the 100-miler earlier in the day, against one another for the entire distance. The two swapped the top spot before last lap contact allowed Chasteen a lane underneath and the Creve Coeur veteran picked up his second Lincoln Speedway win. Chasteen won the very first Lincoln UMP Modified main a year ago. Huffman, Kovski, Roben Huffman, and Blake Buchholz completed the top five.
Robert Reynolds enjoyed his first career Lincoln Street Stock win after holding off a charging Terry Miller. Roy Magee ended a string of bad luck in third. Larry Russell, Jr. and Brian Mileham finished in the top five.
J. R. Eskew put the seal on another Wild Thing 15-lapper. Damon Jones won the race for second, while Matt Turley, Eddie Keller, and Eric Keymon had top five runs.
Street Stocks will fill out next week’s ambitious six-class offering. Late Models, UMP Modifieds, Wild Things, Sportsmen, and Classic Modifieds will fill the card.
