Ahrendt scores second straight at I-90 Speedway


HARTFORD, S.D. -- Cody Ahrendt has returned to I-90 Speedway with a vengeance.  After a two-month absence Ahrendt has come back to win two consecutive USRA B-Mod features.

Ahrendt passed Marty Myers on the second lap of the 15 lap A-Main Saturday night at the I-90 Speedway, and then had to hold off his teammate, Miah Christensen, the rest of the way.

“I knew Miah was barkin’ at my door so I had to run hammer down,” said Ahrendt.

Greg Roemen’s car got better as the race wore on.  He finished right behind Christensen in third.

The USRA B-Mod point standings became increasingly tight as Tim Dann leads Dave Kennedy by just four points with two weeks left in the regular season.  Kennedy finished sixth on Saturday night, two positions ahead of Dann.

Racing continues next Saturday, Aug. 31, at the I-90 Speedway with Season Championships on Saturday, Sept. 7.  Please check www.i90speedway.com or the track’s Facebook page for more information.
