Austin Bouzek won the American Racer USRA Stock Car main event.

What an exciting opening to I-35 Speedway August racing! McCarthy Autogroup Kid’s Night at the Races, on August 1 provided action, lots of action under the auspices of an approaching Full Moon (officially August 3). If you came looking for action you got action, looking for racing how about three and four wide racing in the early laps of the B Mod feature, looking for spills yes, there were those also.

Feature time saw theUSRA B-Mod "B" feature go green to checkered, won by Lonnie Hibner for the second week in a row. The top 8 transferred to the "A" feature to be conducted later in the program.

The USRA B-Mods took to the track and the first lap was simply a sight to behold, cars battling for position three and four wide, but when racing this close one mistake can spell disaster for multiple racers. Lap 2 that close racing caused a five-car pileup on the front straight. The early battle was between Chase Galvan running the high side and Shadren Turner running the low side. Within bumper distance was the 510 from Cody King from Oklahoma. Late race the battle got so close that contact between Galvan and King led to the yellow coming out for Galvan and sending him to the tail of the field. The ensuing restart had Turner and King battling for the lead and coming out of turn 4 to the checkered it was a side by side battle with Turner beating King to the finish. Gabriel Hodges was third and Tyler Cadwallader finished fourth.

Shadren Turner won the USRA B-Mod main event.

The American Racer USRA Stock Car feature saw last year’s champion Jeff Dixon work his way into the lead. It became a two-car battle between Dixon and Austin Bouzek as they approached lapped traffic. At the white flag they were side by side, Bouzek inside and Dixon on the outside. Bouzek used a slide job coming out of turn 2 to take Dixon’s line. Dixon tried to come back going into turn three but settled for second behind Bouzek. Thomas Ground was third and Tony Manley brought his hotrod racer in fourth.

The USRA Modified race was a battle between two drivers tied for the track points championship at the start of the night Mark Dotson and Tyler Hibner. Furthermore, what a perfect setup they made up the front row coming to the green. The early leader in this clash was Dotson as he grabbed the lead but Dotson slipped up the track coming out of turn 2 and Hibner wasted no time shooting underneath and grabbing the lead and then checking out on the field for his second win and a 26 point lead in the championship. Lee Hibner made it a one two Hibner finish with his second place , Ed Noll was third and Tyler Grooms came home in fourth.

Tyler Hibner won the USRA Modified main event.

Next up at I-35 Speedway is the 5th Annual Smokin Trackside Barbeque Bash this Saturday, August 8.
