Tenacious Allen nabs Humboldt checkers


HUMBOLDT, Kan. - John Allen was tenacious in tracking down Jess Folk Jr. to win the USRA Modified feature Friday night at the Humboldt Speedway.

After losing a spark plug late in the race, Folk held on for second, holding Ryan Whitworth at bay.

Gary Langworthy Jr. was fourth, with Jessy Willard fifth.
