Butler Motor Speedway
Butler, Missouri
September 2, 2011

After yet another sizzling summer day in Western Missouri, fans and drivers were ready for a nice evening of racing action at Butler Motor Speedway with comfortable evening temperatures rolling in around race time Friday night. Thirty-nine cars checked in for the night’s action on the 3/8th mile speedway in five racing divisions.

In modified action, Lucas Dobbs and Shawn Nations claimed the preliminary heat races and the front row positions for the 15-lap feature event, which turned out to be an eventful way to finish off the night. After several botched attempts at the start of the race, which unfortunately led to an early ending of the night for some strong runners, including Johnny Fennewald, Chases Jones, and Kayleigh Archer, the race was able to get underway. Nations held the top spot with Dobbs hounding him on each restart once green flag conditions prevailed. Josh Poe started deep in the field in 8th but was able to make his way into the top five by the midpoint of the race. Jordon McCrimmon ran a solid race in the top five as well. By the time the checkered flag waived though, it was Nations who convincingly took the win over Dobbs in second, Poe third, McCrimmon fourth and Danny Scrogham fifth.

Late model action saw Larry Jones and Matt Johnson bring home the heat-race victories to set the stage for the 20-lap feature. At the start of the main, it looked as though Johnson might have his hands full as the top runners were nearly three wide from the onset. However, it did not take long for Johnson to jump out to a commanding lead while the rest of the competitors settled in behind him. Jones and Shane Essary ran very strong inside the top three and were seemingly glued together throughout the event until a late-charging Alan Vaughn made his way past both of them to grab second position after starting fifth. While Johnson began lapping cars, Vaughn was on a mission to try to reel in the leader but simply ran out of time as Johnson took yet another BMS win. Vaughn finished second with Jones getting the best of the battle for third over Essary. Kevin Coyne was fifth with Steve Johnson sixth, Jon Binning seventh and Bob Cummings in eight spot.

Cody Clark of Yorktown, Iowa set the bar high early on in street stock/factory stock action by claiming the lone heat race for the division and the pole for the 15-lap main event. From the drop of the green flag the rest of the field tried to find a way to make a race for the checkers but Clark simply had things going his way and ultimately went on to claim the win over Chris Graenser, all the way down from Clarenda, Iowa in the runner-up spot. Terry Moss managed a third-place run followed by John McClain and Gene Jones of Butler.

B-modified action saw Orrick driver, and normally modified standout Aaron Marrant claim the heat race victory with Jerry Brown a close second. The two drivers led the drivers to the initial green flag for the 15-lap main with a great battle for the lead. As laps wore down the race had several twists and turns with the leaders all the way until the checkered flag flew when, on the final lap Marrant made one more attempt to take the win, which ultimately shuffled him back to fifth in the final rundown as Brown claimed the victory. Brent Bollinger of Ft. Scott, Kansas wound up second ahead of Devin Irvin, Michael Mullins and Marrant.

For the hobby stock heat race Doug Coffey of Windsor drove to the win to grab the top starting position for the main event. Gary Newport, the man to beat seemingly started to his outside when the race went green and it didn’t take him long to grab the top spot away from Coffey. In a quick run to the checkered flag Newport took the win over Coffey, Allen Guthrie, Tommy Boven, and Dave Baldwin.
