June 26, 2009 (Kankakee, IL) - One-hundred seventeen cars in five classes stuffed the pits on a beautiful Friday night, as racing resumed after a one week hiatus. The night's racing action was highlighted by 55-year-old Dave Porth picking up his first feature win of the season, while earning $1,500 in the process, as he held off Chad Osterhoff, Gary Cook Jr., Jim Farris, and Lance Dehm, in a race that featured just one caution.
Track points leader Aaron Ricketts outlasted his nemesis Mike Provenzano in a marathon UMP Late Model feature that was strangely enough,caution filled. Joe Harlan garnered third followed by Richie Hedrick and George Scheffler.
Fast qualifer Rick Thomas continued to show his dominance in the Street Stock division as he edged out Darrin Kohler by a half-car length to earn his third triumph of the year. Billy Wicker, Brian Wirtz, and Joe Hillman rounded out the top five.
Brad DeYoung grabbed the top spot in the 15-lap I-Mod feature as he bested Kenny Carlson, Jim Walker, Tim Sullivan Jr., and two-time feature winner Kurt Allison.
Brandon Wirtz captured the Mechanics Race piloting his brother Brian's #1w street stock to victory lane.
In Miller Lite Match Race action, Nick Allen edged Matt Bachman in a tightly contested event 2-1, Jason Hastings defeated Dave Porth 2-1, Kevin Hastings beat Vince Cooper 2-1, and Shawn Scripter surprised Lance Dehm 2-0. See tournament brackets on the KCS website for full results.
Racing resumes next Friday night with a special Fourth of July Celebration. Promoter Doug Judy exclaimed midway through Friday night's racing program that anyone holding a ticket stub from June 26th, that brings a friend out to the track, will get in FREE! The night will feature plenty of giveaways and a spectacular Fireworks presentation by "Mad Bomber Fireworks Productions".
