Tim Karrick won the USRA B-Mod main event and the 2024 track championship.


Chris Dishong, Jaylen Wettengel and Josh Everhart each won their respective heat races to set the field of competitors for a full field of USRA Stock Cars at Lakeside Speedway on Friday night.

Wettengel won the 2024 track championship and then set his sights on the checkers.

Austin Bouzek charged to the front early, backing up a solid second-place heat race finish as Chris and Everhart battled behind the leader.

Everhart would fade slightly with a fast Wettengel moving to the front and challenging Dishong for second as Bouzek continued to lead.

Bouzek saw the checkers first in his first appearance of 2024 at Lakeside and celebrated in Nextran Truck Center GMC Victory Lane with Wettengel coming home second.

Dishong placed third with Everhart fourth and Hall-of-Famer Buz Kaster placing a solid fifth on the night.

Heat race winners in USRA B-Mods were Stephen Clancy, Tim Karrick and Kerry Davis to set the stage for a great feature event.

Karrick clinched the 2024 USRA B-Mod track championship and took the lead early, making a statement to the rest of the field to follow.

Clancy and Davis challenged early with Jake Richards flexing muscle as well, racing side-by-side for the front.

Shadren Turner sliced and diced through traffic to challenge late but Karrick was in command.

The legend, Karrick won his heat race, feature and track championship, making his mark on history at Lakeside Speedway.

As Karrick celebrated in Nextran Victory Lane, Turner placed second with Davis third.

Richards raced to the line in fourth with Clancy rounding out the top five finishers.

We thank all drivers, crews, staff and fans for another stellar night of racing action, and look forward to next Friday night as we will have four classes of competition and expect a smooth track and great racing.
