Josh Angst won the USRA Modified feature.

It was championship night at Deer Creek Speedway on Saturday with several titles up for grabs on the final night for track points. A couple of the titles were decided in dramatic fashion. In the end four of the five champions captured their first titles.

Another huge field of 128 cars descended on the speedway. The show was presented by Kibble Equipment, Randy & Sandy Norby, Wagner Trucking, Pedal & Play Sports and First Supply had a big gathering for a company outing. This night was also the year-end party for the Kid’s Club.

Extra money was up for grabs when Kibble Equipment added a $100 bonus to each feature winner. Also local race fan Ray Winkels added an extra $100 to the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod winner. Randy & Sandy Norby added a $100 hard charger bonus in each class also.

It has high drama in the race for the track title for the Out-Pace USRA B-Mods. Kadden Kath came into the night just three points ahead of Jim Chisholm.

J.T. Wasmund stormed to the lead from the outside of row one and took off but a caution on lap two sent Kath to the work area with a flat tire and things looked bleak for him in the championship chase. Kath got his tire changed in time and rejoined the race at the tail of the pack.

Wasmund led with Trevor Fecht and A.J. Zvorak second and third. Jerry Young was strong on the restart and zipped past Zvorak. Jared Boumeester started 16th and was now in the top five and challenged Zvorak for fourth.

Wasmund checked out while Young got by Fecht for second and Boumeester was up to fourth. Meanwhile Kath picked off car after car trying desperately to get back up front. Boumeester got by Fecht for third on lap 11 and then Zvorak spun on lap 12 and the caution came out.

Boumeester took second on the start and Chisholm entered the top five. Chisholm got to fourth and then worked past Young for third. Kath was up to eighth and was on a mission. Young got back past Chisholm and Kath was now sixth.

Wasmund got his second win in a row with Boumeester second. Boumeester’s stellar run also earned him the hard charger bonus. Young finished third with Chisholm fourth. Kath charged past Shaun Walski on the final lap to finish fifth.

That last lap pass by Kath earned him enough points to come back and tie Chisholm for the points title. The USRA tie-breaker is feature wins and Kath got the title with three wins to Chisholm’s zero.

J.T. Wasmund won the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod feature.

The USRA Modifieds had another doozy of a feature run. The point championship was decided last week with Nate Wasmund earning his first title.

Jacob Dahle got the jump on Josh Angst from row one to take the early lead. Jake Timm slipped past Darwyn Karau for fourth and then raced Dustin Sorensen for third. Dahle checked out early on but Timm was on the move to third on lap four.

Angst reeled in Dahle and caught him on lap seven. Angst ran the rim and made the pass and Timm came to second one lap later. Kevin Stoa was on the charge from 14th and was up to fourth. Dustin Sorensen and Brad Waits were right with Stoa and had a good race going.

Stoa got by Dahle for third on lap 10 and Waits got fourth on lap 12. Back up front Timm gained on Angst and now Waits was right with Stoa for third on the 13th circuit. Waits would make the pass one lap later as things heated up for the lead.

On lap 17 the race was on for the lead when Timm dove low and Angst ran the top. They went side-by-side on lap 18 with Timm scored the leader at the end of the lap. Angst fired right back and took the lead again on lap 19. Timm mounted another charge and took the lead back on lap 21.

But Angst was not to be denied and shot back out front on lap 22. Angst led the final three laps to score his first win this season. Timm finished second and Waits was third. Stoa’s fine run ended in fourth and that also got him the hard charger award. Dustin Sorensen would round out the top five at the finish.
