The eagerly anticipated UMP Summernationals Tour returned to the Kankakee County Speedway for tour stop #2 of the grueling 27-stop "Hell Tour". A capacity crowd was on hand to welcome fifty-two late model competitors representing nine states, all with their eye on the $10,000 top prize.
Five 10-lap heat races were needed, with the top three from each transferring into the 40-lap feature event. The remainder of the 21 car field was filled with three B main transfers and three UMP provisional's.
Matt Miller of Ohio, took the first heat, holding back Brian Birkhofer, who worked his way past Illinois driver Steve Sheppard Jr. in the closing laps.
Two-time defending UMP Summernationals champion Dennis Erb Jr. won the second heat after leader Jeep Van Wormer of Michigan got crossed up with a lapped car late in the heat race. Van Wormer recovered though in time to hold off local driver Ted Loomis.
The third heat was all Billy Moyer's. The driver from Batesville, AR led wire-to-wire to score the win with relative ease, but the battle for second and third saw a pair of home state drivers, Ryan Unzicker and Kevin Weaver, secure the final transfer spots.
Heat four was a terrific battle between Wisconsin's Terry Casey, Indiana's Scott James, and Illinois drivers Rodney Melvin and Eric Smith. James would get by Casey midway through the race, with Melvin holding back Smith for the final transfer spot.
The fifth and final heat race went to Missouri driver Will Vaught, but hot on his heels were a pair of local favorites Jason Feger and Shannon Babb.
Jason McBride and young Brandon Sheppard each won C Main events to transfer themselves into the B Main, and while Sheppard would climb to a sixth-place finish in the B Main, neither would get into the transfer positions for the A Main. Randy Korte easily won the B Main event over Brian Shirley and Wes Steidinger. UMP provisional's went to Justin Ratliff of Kentucky, and Eric Smith of Illinois, while Aaron Ricketts was awarded the track's provisional by virtue of being the current point leader at KCS.
When the field rolled off, it was Billy Moyer and Matt Miller making up the front row, followed by Dennis Erb and Scott James in row two, and Will Vaught and Brian Birkhofer in row three. From the drop of the green flag, Moyer looked to establish control of the race by taking his Victory Circle M1 chassis to the hub, while Miller committed himself to the high side. Moyer wasted no time showing his early dominance as he built up a straight-away lead over Miller, James and Erb. Miller would briefly grab the lead from Moyer on lap 15, but that only served as a wake up call to Moyer to drop the hammer.
However, with ten laps to go, Miller would have his hands full with a tricky berm at both ends of the track and coming off turn four his car slowed after wrestling the berm. James, with no where to go, made a sudden move to the left to avoid Miller's car and in doing so, made contact with Erb, who was looking to scramble his way by both drivers on the inside. The end result was a flat left rear tire on Erb's car and damage to James car. Both drivers were able to continue after a visit to the pits, but neither would factor in the end result. Though words got heated in the pits following the race, both were able to walk away and put the night's exchange behind them.
Their demise would allow Birkhofer to take over the third spot, but all eyes were on the trio of Babb, Feger, and Rodney Melvin, who were rocketing up through the field. Babb and Feger used the top groove while Melvin used the bottom. But with the laps dwindling down, Moyer would stretch out his lead once again to score the win and claim the $10,000 top prize. Miller came home second, holding off Birkhofer, while Babb would claim fourth after starting fifteenth. Melvin would sneak past Feger to grab fifth after starting fourteenth, while Feger started tenth. For his eleven position gain, Babb would earn the FastLane Web DeZigns Hard Charger award.
In UMP Modified action, former UMP national champion Denny Schwartz looked to have things well under control until a late race flat tire sent the Ashmore, IL driver pitside, thus relinquishing the lead to Gary Cook Jr., who has already scored a win two weeks ago at KCS. Cook would again pick up the win followed by Kankakee's own Phil Line, who rebounded very nicely from an ill car of a week ago. Lance Dehm finished third, while Danny Schwartz and Dave Porth rounded out the top five. The younger Schwartz, who began in fifteenth position, would earn the FastLane Web DeZigns Hard Charger award for improving eleven positions.
In street stock action, Darrin Kohler would score the win after starting fifth. Pole sitter and early leader David Hurst, making his first visit to KCS this season, finished second, while Nate Payton continued his string of good finishes with a third place. Point leader Rick Thomas finished fourth while "Electric" Joe Hillman rounded out the top five. Heat races were won by Hurst, Payton, and Thomas, while Don McCarty won the consi event. In other news, Shannon Shutter of Aroma Park, was involved in a violent hit with Dustin Hubert, after Shutters car slowed along the front stretch and was tagged in the rear by the oncoming Hubert. Shutter blacked out initially from the impact, and other than a lot of soreness and stiffness to his neck and back, will be alright to climb back in the car as early as next week.
Promoter Doug Judy was all smiles as he grabbed the microphone to address the overflow crowd. With such a tremendous turnout of fans and drivers alike, he announced to the crowd not once but twice, that tickets from the UMP Summernationals race will be good for half-off admission to next week's Father's Day Special, which features a $1,500-to-win UMP Modified Special and the first visit by the Illini (Midgets) Racing Series. Street Stocks and Hornets will also be on the card.
