Mid-season champions crowned at Humboldt Speedway
HUMBOLDT, Kan.—It seems hard to believe, but June 5 marked the mid-point of the season at Humboldt Speedway. And, after a half-season of full-throttle action, mid-season champions have been anointed. They are Riley Whitworth (USRA B-Mods) and John Allen (USRA Modifieds).
In addition to crowning the mid-season Kings, there was a whole world of racing action as well.
Incredibly, up to now there had been a different USRA Modified feature winner each week at 'The Hummer' in 2015. Darrin Fuqua became this season's first repeat winner with a 20-lap wire-to-wire victory. Jeremy Chambers held off Allen for runner-up, Terry Schultz took fourth and Shad Badder claimed fifth.
Tyler Kidwell overcame a half-year worth of mechanical hard luck by dominating the USRA B-Mod feature. Kidwell relegated Jake Richards to second, Andy Bryant third, Bryan McGowen fourth and Randal Schiffelbein Jr. to fifth.
June 5 also marked the first kid’s bicycle race of the season, where three age groups contended.
No racing at Humboldt on June 12, but we will resume June 19.
