Denny Woodworth, Michael Long, Wyatt Lance and Eddie Dieker all had the Easter Bunny luck as they claimed feature event wins on Easter Sunday at Quincy Raceways.
Woodworth, The Racin Lawyer, took the Budweiser IMCA Late Model feature win by leading all 30 laps of the main event. Woodworth took the lead at the drop of the green flag and held of the challenges of Mark Burgtorf throughout the entire race as Burgtorf challenged on the bottom side numerous times but was unable to get past to take the lead. Lonnie Bailey rode in third for all thirty laps and just needed a small slipup by Woodworth or Burgtorf to advance to the lead. Bailey settled for third at the checkers with Gary Wilson in fourth and Jamie Wilson in fifth. Bailey took the win in the first heat race after Terry Gallaher rolled his former Ken Schrader Late Model on the second lap. Gallaher was unhurt but the same could not be said for the car as it sustained major damage. Burgtorf won the second heat with Gary Wilson claiming the Summy Tire and Auto Center Trophy Dash.
Michael Long took the lead away from Henry Delonjay on the second circuit of the 20 lap main event for the Miller Lite A-Modifieds and was never challenged on his way to victory. Delonjay settled for second spot after a spirited battle with Mark Van Winkle in third. Brandon Lennox and Terry Wilson rounded out the top five spots. Delonjay and Long took the heat race wins.
Wyatt Lance took the lead of the B-Modified feature event at the drop of the green flag and held the top spot until Jim Leffew drove past on the seventh lap to take the lead. Leffew then pulled away for what looked like an easy feature win until tangling with a lapped car on the lap 18. Leffew ended up stalled on the track to bring out the yellow flag giving the lead back to Lance. Lance then help off last weeks feature winner, Gary Dreyer for the win. Third through fifth went to Bobby Cookson, Terry Houston and A.J. Tournear. Cookson, Lance and Leffew were the heat race winners with Tony Dunker taking the win in the P & S Auto and Truck Collision Repair Dash.
2003 Track Points Champion, Steve Carlin took the early lead in the 20 lap Bomber Feature and held off Billy Genenbacher and Eddie Dieker for the first 14 circuits. Dieker then slipped by to take a slim lead with Carlin, Genenbacher and Adam Birch in close pursuit. The three battle neck and neck to the checkered flag with Dieker taking his second straight feature win over Carlin in second, Birch in third, Genenbacher in fourth and Jim Powell in fifth. Carlin and Travis Booher took the heat race wins.
