Chad Simpson took to the Quincy Raceways “Bull Ring” like a fish does to water by sweeping the second night of the MARS/Corn Belt Clash/ALMS Series Clash for Cash. Simpson set the fast time overall, grabbed his heat race win and went on to lead every lap of the forty lap main event. Brandon Sheppard put on a brave challenge to Simpson but was never able to catch the leader and had to settle for the second spot followed by Shannon Babb in third, Brian Shirley in fourth and Jason Perry in fifth. The other heat race winners were Sheppard, Babb and Tyler Reddick. Terry Phillips and Justin Mitchell were the B-Main winners. The win at Quincy gave Simpson a clean sweep of both the 34 Raceway event on Saturday and Quincy on Sunday.
Michael Long and Dave Wietholder put on a great battle for the win in the Miller Lite UMP Modified main event as the two duel side by side over the closing laps with Long edging out Wietholder and the finish line to take the win. Wietholder settled for second with Robbie Reed in third, Jimmy Cummings in fourth and Shawn Deering in fifth. Steven DeLonjay took the dash win with Deering scoring the checkered flag in the heat race.
Pat “Skippy” Dunker is breaking out the season’s start with his second feature win of the year in the IMCA Sport Compact division in a runaway win over Kimberly Abbott in second, Craig Bangert in third, Bryce Baker in fourth and Gary Stephenson in fifth. Brandon Lambert and Dunker were the heat race winners.
