ROCK RAPIDS, Iowa—Eighty-seven race cars rolled into Rapid Speedway Friday evening.

The USRA Hobby Stock feature had many contenders for the win, but Chad Lonneman has been hard to beat every time he has shown up to the track this season.

Todd Uhl grabbed the early lead from the third starting spot, but Lonneman and Dustin Gulbrandson were coming through the field in a hurry.

Lonneman took the lead from Uhl and would go on to survive two late-race cautions to pick-up his fourth victory of the season at Rapid Speedway.

Chad Lonneman won the USRA Hobby Stock feature.

The field of 27 Out-Pace USRA B-Mods were narrowed down to 20 for the A-feature.

Dave Kennedy was looking to pick-up his first victory of the season at Rapid Speedway, snatching the early lead from Chris Goetz.

Kennedy led much of the race, but Thor Anderson was charging slowly, but surely, around the top-side of the track, getting around Kennedy for the lead.

After a late caution, Anderson was looking for the checkered flag, but saw a yellow flag instead.

Anderson would have another two laps to hold on to the lead, but Colter Deutsch was hungry for his second win of the year.

On the restart, Anderson went to the bottom, opening the top for Deutsch to get a run, and clear Anderson going into turn 3.

Deutsch was followed by Anderson and Van Engen across the finish line.

Colter Deutsch won the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod feature.

The Holley USRA Stock Cars put on another classic for fans Friday evening, with first and second finishing less than a car-length apart, and four-wide racing throughout the field.

Rich Gregoire was looking for his second win of the year, taking the lead after a side-by-side battle with Roger Verdoorn.

Gregoire led lap after lap, but last week’s victor, Scott Overgaard, was charging around the bottom-side of the track.

Overgaard cut down under Gregoire coming out of turn four for the final time, but Gregoire was too strong off the corner, taking the win and closing the point deficit.

Rich Gregoire won the Holley USRA Stock Car feature.

Next Friday, Aug. 5, at Rapid Speedway will feature our regular USRA Weekly Racing Series program.
