Joe Duvall won the USRA Modified main event.

Night two of the Funkadelic Dirt Track & Honky Tonk Extravaganza concluded a whirlwind of a weekend. Forty-five cars signed in to tackle the Salina High Banks Speedway, located just 40 minutes northwest from Arrowhead Speedway where the first night of the event took place.

While Arrowhead’s featuren was dominated by USRA Heartland Modified Tour stars at the front of the field, the race at Salina featured a pair of battles between two Heartland Modified Tour regulars and two USRA American Racer Modified Series cars.

The field came to green with “The Superintendent” Jason Pursley showing the way, but rookie ARMS contender Chase Hatton put the pressure on in the early going.

Pursley looked to run away and hide after a handful of circuits,, at one point possessing a full straight-away lead on the field. However, the lead didn't last. Disaster struck on lap 12 when a suspension failure ended Pursley’s run.

An aggressive slider from Joe Duvall on the impending restart saw the Club 91 entry take the lead. Pacing comfortably until approaching traffic, Tyler Wolff stalked 'Big Daddy' and made a move with just three laps to go.

Working his way to the inside off of turn four Duvall immediately went into defense mode to fend off the ARMI Contractors No. 4W of Wolff.

Running nearly side-by-side the last three laps, Duvall dove for the bottom of turn three on the final lap to defend the bottom of the speedway. Wolff was there and the resulting contact left Wolff with a flat right front tire and out of contention.

A two-lap dash to the finish proved to be no issue for Duvall as he crossed the finish line victorious.

In a show of great sportsmanship, Wolff and Duvall shared congratulatory words in victory land before Duvall turned his attention the the crowd saying, “These races are so dang cool to be a part of and to promote. But it’s really about you all in the grandstands tonight. Thank you so much for being here. Without you there is no Funkadelic.”

The five heat races were won by Timothy Culp, Pursley, Duvall, Jax Redline, and Hatton.

This was the final time thgis year the two USRA Modified tours will compete in the same event. The USRAHeartland Modified Tour presented by Real Racing Wheels races again in two weeks with a pair of shows in the Kansas City area. In three weeks, the USRAAmerican Racer Modified Series presented by Day Motor Sports has a two-day run in Eastern Oklahoma.
