Rudolf, Dixon, Turner take I-35 Speedway checkers on Casey's Night
Chase Rudolf won the USRA Modified main event.
One hundred and forty-four cars jam-packed the pits at I-35 Speedway for this beautiful Memorial Day Weekend as we honored the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve this great country on Casey’s Night.
USRA B-Mod action was hot and heavy, and Shadren Turner said he was done being the bridesmaid. Turner, with plenty of runner-up finishes this season to Tyler Cadwallader, decided to flip the script and pick up his first win of 2021.
Cadwallader in a role reversal found his way around newcomer Matthew Kay to finish second ending his five-race win streak. Kay led early but ended up third, Lonnie Hibner was in the mix early finished fourth and Dustin Crist in his first appearance this season was fifth.
Heat wins went to Turner, Kay and Hibner. Hard charger of the race was Jace Whitt gaining 13 spots.
Last week Jeff Dixon lost an engine in the Medieval USRA Stock Car feature. This week the backup motor proved to be a better bullet as he rode the outside line to victory for the first time this season.
Dixon battled early with Doug Keller and Connor Masoner eventually getting by Keller for the win. Tim Shields driving Tommy Ground's No. 33T machine was right there when the dust settled and finished second, Shadren Turner doing double duty finished third, Michael Knight with another impressive run finished fourth and Jim Masoner Jr. took his green hot rod to a fifth-place finish.
Heat race wins went to Connor Masoner, Keller and Matthew Lance with the hard charger going to Knight gaining 19 positions.
USRA Modifieds were last for their 20-lap feature. Ed Noll led much of the race before his No. 15 machine started to puff smoke. As the race wore on the smoke got worse and with about five laps to go Noll was forced to pull into the pits.
Chase Rudolf was right there to inherit the lead and pick up his first ever USRA Modified feature win. Rudolf battled most of the race with birthday boy Daniel Harris, who finished second gaining a lot of confidence.
Houston Johnson, another double duty driver, joined Shadren Turner by winning one class while finishing third in the other, Shayne Bailey a leader early on finished fourth and Cody Owens with a strong showing finished fifth.
Bailey and Noll were the heat race winners and Johnson was the hard charger.
