Kath cashes karma credits at Featherlite Fall Jamboree


Less than a month ago, Kadden Kath repaid a favor to fellow Out-Pace USRA B-Mod competitor, and Saturday night the racing gods rewarded Kath with a victory at the 20th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree and a $1,700 paycheck to go with it.

Battling for the track championship at the Deer Creek Speedway on the final Saturday of August, Kath made a last-lap pass to earn a tie atop the division’s points standings with Jim Chisholm, but based on his better season win total Kath was awarded the title.

Kath, however, asked officials if the title could be shared with Chisholm and his wish was granted. Earlier that day, Chisholm’s team had helped Kath change a flat tire on his car. Had the Chisholms not done so, the title would have been theirs outright.

Running second in Saturday’s main event when the yellow flag waved with two laps to go, Kath threw a “slide job” at race-long leader Ben Moudry when the green flag returned. He squeezed in front of Moudry, took the lead and then held on to take the win.

Moudry’s valiant effort ended with runner-up honors while Iron Man Challenge points leader Dan Hovden followed closely in third with Dakota Foster and Andrew Schroeder in tow for fourth and fifth.

The winner’s older brother, Kylie Kath, claimed the sixth spot, Trevor Fecht was seventh, Jerry Young finished eighth, Jared Boumeester wound up ninth and Corey Jones was tenth.

Jones, whose father won the USMTS Modified feature at the first Fall Jamboree in 1999, collected an extra $300 as the race’s hard charger. He started on the outside of the seventh row in the three-wide starting field.

Featherlite Trailers is the title sponsor of the Fall Jamboree. The event is also made possible by support from Casey's General Stores, Midwest Liquidation Contracting, Miner’s Outdoor, MOR Golf & Utility, Orchard Creek Transportation, Red Tail Tackle, Summit Racing Equipment and Wagner Trucking.

Make plans now attend the 21st Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree, Sept. 18-21, 2019.
