Gulbrandson gets Shootout trophy as 18 racers locked-in for Summit USRA Nationals finale
Dustin Gulbrandson won the USRA Hobby Stock Summit Shootout presented by Mel Hambelton Racing.
The USRA Hobby Stocks got their moment in the Summit USRA Nationals spotlight Wednesday night at Lucas Oil Speedway, with Dustin Gulbrandson walking away with the Summit Shootout feature win.
Gulbrandson—the USRA Hobby Stock national champ in seven of the last ten seasons—took over the lead with five laps to go and then held off Tracy Halouska of Worthing, S.D.
The Sioux Falls, S.D., native earned $500 for his 18th feature victory of the season.
Gulbrandson, who started fourth, stalked Halouska for much of the race after the second-starting Halouska took the lead on lap two and held it until lap 11.
That’s when Gulbrandson made what would be the winning pass, going on the outside on the front straightaway to seize the lead.
Gulbrandson held on from there to beat Halouska by three-quarters of a second at the finish.
"Hats off to Lucas Oil and everybody here for putting on the event," Gulbrandson said. "It's an awesome track to come to. The racing surface right there is about as good as you're going to get.
"Tracy's always fun to race with. We come out of the same shop and race together and help each other a lot. I knew we were gonna race each other clean there for the win. I'm just lucky to come out of top."
Gulbrandson said the win doesn't necessarily put a target on his back as a favorite for the remainder of the week, as qualifying races are held Thursday and Friday prior to Saturday's final-night main event.
"There's a lot of good guys in this class and a lot of fast guys," Gulbrandson said. "We'll just see what happens and hopefully everything stays going good and we have a little luck on our side."
Scott Dobel finished third with Jeremy Crimmins in fifth.
The USRA Hobby Stock Summit Shootout featured track champions and Summit Shootout qualifying race winners from throughout the 2023 racing season.
Meanwhile, multiple features were held in the USRA Modifieds, Medieval USRA Stock Cars and USRA B-Mods as drivers began compiling points toward Saturday's feature lineups in each class. The top three in each of the two Modified features, along with the top two finishers in each of the three Stock Car and B-Mod features locked themselves into Saturday night's main event.
Williams, Striegel, Morton win B-Mod features: Bobby Williams used consistency to win the Lucas Oil Speedway Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mod track championship, despite not winning a feature.
But the Hermitage driver took a trip to victory lane in the first USRA B-Mod feature on Wednesday night.
Williams started fourth and took over the lead on lap six. He held off seventh-starting Ryan Gillmore by 1.2 seconds with Kris Jackson driving from ninth to third.
"The track was really, really good," Williams said. "My niece, she is on the quarter panel of the car. She is having heart surgery tomorrow so I'm glad we could get this done for her."
Mike Striegel, normally the Lucas Oil Speedway flagman, started from the pole and led all 20 laps in the second B-Mod feature.
The "Wheatland Outlaw" outdistanced runner-up Terry Schultz, who charged from seventh, by 2.6 seconds in a caution-plagued 20-lapper. Colson Kirk came home in third.
"The race track was top-dominant which suited me perfect, because I started front row outside," Striegel said. "The only thing I was thinking of, man the fans are gonna give me so much crap if I can't win this race. It'll be a long season next year."
In the third B-Mod feature, Springfield's J.C. Morton followed up his Summit Shootout win one night earlier by driving to a feature win.
Morton—the 2016 USRA B-Mod national champion and winner of the 2021 Summit USRA Nationals—got around two-time USRA B-Mod national champ Brandon Hare for the lead on lap five and drew away from there.
Morton beat Hare by 2.5 seconds at the checkers while Kyle Slader finished third.
"We finally got this Bloodline Race Car rolling," Morton said. "Me and Brandon Hare threw some sliders back and forth early. The bottom was good in one and two. Finally I snookered by him and the yellow came out and that made the race right there."
Dynamic Davis duo drive to Modified wins: Tyler Davis of Haysville, Kan., passed Nic Bidinger going into turn three on lap 16 and held off a hard-charging Rodney Sanders on a restart with three to go for the first Modified feature win of the night.
The defending champ and current USRA Modified national points leader held off Sanders by just under one second as both locked themselves into Saturday’s finale along with Trevor Hughes, who was third.
"It's relieving to be done and we can sit back and relax the rest of the week until the weekend," Davis said of his locked-in status for the Saturday's feature.
Meanwhile, two-time USRA Modified national champion Brandon Davis took the second Modified feature after earning a Summit Shootout feature win on Tuesday.
Davis, of Hayfield, Minn., had a 2.3-second lead over Tyler Wolff that was wiped away on a lap-12 caution. But he was able to hold off Kylie Kath, who charged late, to win by two car-lengths.
Seeking back-to-back Summit USRA Nationals crowns, Wolff was third and lcoked himself into Saturday's finale with Brandon Davis and Kath.
"It feels good to come down here to an unknown track and run good," Brandon Davis said. "Hopefully we can run good on Saturday."
Stock Car feature wins to Cain, Keeter, Thornton: Josh Cain of Rio Rancho, N.M., took the lead on lap 13 when fellow New Mexico racer Rob Moseley slid too high in turn four, and went on to earn the win in the first of three Medieval USRA Stock Cars features.
Once he took over the top spot, Cain checked out and drove away to a 3.7-second win over Mitch Hovden.
Moseley, after leading 10 of the first 11 laps, settled for third—one spot short of a guaranteed spot in Saturday's championship race.
Mitch Keeter of Webb City was the fourth and final leader of the second Stock Car feature, leading the final four laps to earn the win.
Bryant Bennett spun while leading as he and Keeter collided while entering turn three on lap 16. Keeter inherited the lead as the caution flew and held on the rest of the way.
Chris Dishong wound up in second with Jason Josselyn third.
"That was a lot of fun. I hadn't raced USRA in a few years," Keeter said. "I've been racing Late Models the last three or four years and I haven't raced these cars since 2003 or '04."
The third Stock Car feature saw defending Summit USRA Nationals champ Dylan Thornton of Orcutt, Calif., lead all 20 laps for a convincing win over runner-up William Garner.
Thornton built a four-second margin with two laps remaining when a caution wiped out his lead, but was able to navigate the restart and drive to the win.
Garner garnered second place, and Mason Beck was third.
"We weren't very good last night, but stayed up late and worked on it and got it better, I guess," Thornton said. "Now we'll see how Saturday goes."
Action continues Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the "Diamond of Dirt Tracks" for the 10th Annual Summit USRA Nationals powered by Chevrolet Performance. USRA Modifieds, Medieval USRA Stock Cars, USRA B-Mods and USRA Hobby Stocks will be on the card all three nights with USRA Tuners joining the program on Friday and Saturday.
