HUMBOLDT, Kan. -- Two weeks ago, Mother Nature cut the Friday night program at Humboldt Speedway short by two feature races. Last week, the Factory Stock feature was made up but due to scheduling conflicts with USMTS being in the area, the USRA RHS Modified feature had to wait until this week to be completed.

So, the night begins with 15 Modifieds out of the original 18 being first out of the box. It had rained a lot over the last couple of days, so there was plenty of moisture in the clay, and Ron Whitworth and crew, as usual, had the surface in top shape. The track was really sticky, not a common denominater in Modified racing, and speeds were incredible.

Round 1 saw a lot of mechanical malfunctions that cost both Jess Folk, Jr and Johnny Allen dearly, as both were leading before DNF. However, it might not have mattered anyway because Johnny Bone Jr. was on the scene and dialed in to perfection. With a clear track in front of him, Bone bade a fond farewell to the rest of the field on his way to the win. After quite a battle, Scott Daniels ousted Paden Phillips for runner up. Ryan Whitworth held down fourth, with Jon Sheets fifth.

On to round 2: Bone won his heat and secured the pole position for the feature. From the drop of the green, Bone was seemingly on rails, and sailed off to victory, winning wire to wire. Johnny Allen, now repaired, finished second, followed by Scott Daniels, Paden Phillips and Paul Snyder.
