Denny Woodworth, Michael Long, Steve Steinkuhler, Steve Carlin and Logan Moody all took feature event wins at Quincy Raceways on Sunday August 8, 2010 during Budweiser Rinella Distributing and Noxin Trucking Night at the Races.

Denny Woodworth used a lot of patience and a little luck to pick up his third Budweiser IMCA Late Model feature event win this season. Woodworth started the A Main in the fifth row and steadily worked his way to challenge Dustin Griffin for the top spot on the fifth teen lap. Woodworth blasted past Griffin on the high side of turn two on lap 16 and held off the challenges of Jason Perry over the closing laps to cement the win. Perry settled for the second spot followed by Keith Pratt in third, Griffin in fourth and Billy Genenbacher in fifth. Darin Weisinger and Joey Gower were the heat race winners with Woodworth claiming the win in the Summy Tire and Auto Center Trophy Dash. Woodworth’s win now gives him a 350 to 344 points lead in his chase to his first Budweiser IMCA Late Model Track Championship.

Steven DeLonjay looked like he was going to end Michael Longs domination of the Miller Lite UMP Modified division Sunday night but a late race caution allowed Long to close up the gap to the leaders with six laps to go. Long disposed of second place running Rusty Griffaw on the twentieth lap and set his sites on DeLonjay. Steven held off Long until twenty third lap but put up a valiant fight as he refused to go away quietly. DeLonjay kept up the pressure on Long until the checkered flag fell on the twenty fifth lap, settling for second by .096 of a second. Long’s eighth feature win of the season comes in his eighth feature start. Third went to Griffaw followed by Justin Reed in fourth and Jared Schlipman in fifth. Schlipman, David Wietholder and DeLonjay were the heat race winners with DeLonjay scoring the checkered flag in the Advance Trading Trophy Dash series. Jared Schlipman now holds a 684 to 642 point advantage over Wietholder as the season winds down.

Steve Steinkuhler outlasted the rest of the Triple Performance Engines IMCA Stock Car field as carnage on the track and overheating engines put much of the field in trouble. Steinkuhler took the lead on the tenth lap and held off the challenges of Terry Houston to the checkered flag on the twentieth lap. Houston settled for second followed by Kevin Tomlinson in third, Jerry Jansen in fourth and Aaron Brocksieck in fifth. Mayfield and Andrew Griffin were heat race winners.

The Tim’s Machine Shop Hobby Stock main event was a wild and wooly affair that saw numerous caution flags, pit stops and penalties for rough driving. Steve Carlin survived the carnage to take his first feature win of the season. Carlin held off the challenges of Bobby Anders in a terse battle over the closing laps with Anders settling for the second spot at the checkered flag. Nathan Hayes scored third followed by Brian Hoener in fourth and Jeremy Buss in fifth. Hoener and Justin Bartz were the heat race winners. Carlin now holds a slim four point margin over Anders in the point's battle.

The Kid Moods came to town for their first appearance of the season and the youngest had a very tough time of it on the track. Jake Griffin crashed hard head on into the turn four wall and walked away but not until he had regained his bearings. Logan Moody took the feature event win easily outdistancing Braden Johnson after the field was reduced to two cars when Logan Mitchell and Blake Vinson crashed into the back stretch guard rail. Vinson took the heat race win.

One of the most anticipated nights of the season, the Fan Appreciation Night is up next on Sunday August 9, 2010. All Grandstand Tickets are $5 with Kids 10 and under getting in free. The Albertson Auto Body & Mark Twain Casino Night at the Races will feature an added attraction as the UMP Crate Late Models will be added to the evenings racing card. The kids are in for a big treat as well with a first time event, a Kids Nickel Dash at Intermission. The Pit Gates open at 3, Grandstands at 4, Drivers Meeting and Registration ending at 4:45, Hot Laps at 5 and Racing at 5:30pm.
