Yancy Shepard won the USRA B-Mod feature.

KANSAS CITY, Kan.—Lakeside Speedway hosted the Joe Berry Clash of the B-Mods Friday night and it provided all the excitement that fans could want and more. A perfectly groomed race track and a beautiful night gave the racers the perfect setting to provide the perfect race.

Yancy Shepard and Steven Clancy brought the field to the green flag to start off this $1,500-to-win Out-Pace USRA B-Mod special.

Chad Lyle, a former multi-time champion at Lakeside Speedway in the USRA Modified division, pulled out to the early lead in the feature. Lyle, hugging the bottom of the track to perfection, kept himself in front of the mob of racers behind him.

As this being a special, five extra laps were added on making it a 20-lap feature.

Shepard stayed in the second spot for a majority of the feature as he chased down Lyle. Behind Shepard there was a lot of action going on all over the speedway. The smooth, dry slick racetrack provided three grooves around the speedway that were being utilized by all the drivers.

Coming to lap 15, Shepard was in a position to make his move on the leader.

On a normal feature it would have been a photo finish if that’s where the race ended, but tonight there were five more laps, and in the final five laps Shepard shined the brightest.

Shepard would take the lead from Lyle and go on to win the $1,500 top prize. It was Shepard's first win of the year at Lakeside, and his first time back behind the wheel after a long hiatus.

Brad Smith, the winner of the last two features here, caught up to Lyle on the white flag lap and beat him to the line for the runner-up spot. J.C. Morton finished in the fourth spot and Colton Stevens had a strong effort finishing in fifth on the night.

A total of 37 Out-Pace USRA B-Mods checked in to try and cash in on the extra money being offered.

Some new faces showed up to battle in the USRA Modified main event Friday night. Tyler Wolff from Fayetville, Ark., jumped out to the early lead in the main event. Mark Schafman, a two-time feature winner in 2016, kept pace with Wolff at the front with Jesse Dennis from Corning, Iowa, also in the mix at the front of the pack.

On lap six, the three drivers went three-wide on the track, but it was Wolff and Schafman heading to the front. Schafman used the high side to build up enough momentum to run past Wolff. Schafman would become the new leader.

From there it was familiar territory for Schafman as he worked the speedway to his liking and opened up a good-sized lead. As he worked his way through lapped traffic he found the checkered flag and win number three on the season.

Wolff held on after a tough battle with Kerry Davis for the second spot. Fourth went to Dennis and Aaron Marrant rounded out the top five.

Mark Schafman won the USRA Modified feature.

The ‘H’ Train is on a roll in the Holley USRA Stock Car division. Brett Heeter started inside of row four in the feature and by lap three he found himself at the top spot.

Seven wins on the season and there is no sign of letting up for Heeter. At the front of the pack the only time the field challenged Heeter was under the yellow flag laps. As soon as the green dropped, Heeter jumped back out into the lead.

As the checkered flag dropped on the field it was Heeter picking up win number eight on the season. Lucas Conely finished in the runner-up spot, third went to Trevor Hunt, fourth was Chad Walker and fifth went to Kevin Anderson.

Brett Heeter won the Holley USRA Stock Car feature.

The racing action continues next Friday night, July 22, at Lakeside Speedway for Tompkins Industries Night. For more information on Lakeside Speedway log on to www.lakesidespeedway.net.
