Crimmins tops Fan Appreciation Night at Fort Dodge
FORT DODGE, Iowa -- Friday night the Mineral City Speedway held Fan Appreciation Night. Tickets were just $5 for adults and many prizes were given away either off the ticket numbers or the lucky number programs.
Things got off to a late start as a brief rain shower went through the area prior to the start of the show, so track crew along with the drivers spent some time packing the surface in.
Polesitter Matt Mundt led the opening lap of the USRA Karl Chevrolet Stock Car feature, but Wayne Crimmins quickly took to the outside and made the pass on Mundt for the lead on lap 2.
An early caution came out for Matt Fox as he slowed and stopped outside of turn 3, but when racing resumed Jason Minnehan took his machine to the top side and passed Mundt for second.
Minnehan closed in on Crimmins and hounded him the rest of the way, but Crimmins did not fold under pressure as he took home top honors.
Minnehan settled for second, Adam Silvey was third, Fox was fourth and Dennis Plain rounded out the top 5.
