Dotson, Huls, Noll among Generation Buildings Night winners at I-35 Speedway
Mark Dotson won the USRA Modified feature.
By the time the Out-Pace USRA B-Mods took to the track Saturday night at the I-35 Speedway, it had slicked off and provided multiple grooves for racing. On the start, those grooves were put to use as 20 cars stayed two- and three-wide through the first few laps.
Front row starter Ed Noll used the battles behind him to stay safe out front. Noll led the first 14 laps in easy fashion, but rarely is winning that easy. A yellow flag flew, setting up a two-lap shootout. On the restart, Chase Galvan used up the bumper of Noll and gave him everything he could handle. Noll kept his cool and picked up his fourth win of the season, while Galvan finished second.
Daniel Harris and Corey Myers battled all race long for third, with Harris prevailing for that position. Eddie Schwope Jr. charged late to take the last spot in the top five.
The Holley USRA Stock Car feature saw Abe Huls drive to a dominating feature win, leading every lap. Huls made the trek all the way from Illinois in preparation for the Gary Davis Super 66 Stock Car race on June 16.
Dean Wray spent all race holding off countless charges from Jeff Dixon on his way to a second-place finish. I-35 Speedway points leader Jeff Dixon finished third, with Cletus Murray fourth and Jason Estes fifth.
For the second straight week, the USRA Modifieds ran 20 laps without seeing the color yellow. Mark Dotson lead all 20 laps on his way to the feature win. Dennis Elliott and USRA Modified national points leader Darron Fuqua may have had faster racecars but could not settle their battle for second in time to chase down Dotson.
Fuqua, running the high side and Elliott, running the low side, stayed side-by-side for most of the feature. Fuqua finally cleared Elliott for second with two laps to go. The gap between Dotson and Fuqua closed to a car length at the checkered flag, with Dotson winning, Fuqua second and Elliott a close third.
Darren Shaw finished fourth, with Derrick Hicks fifth.
