Henning best at Twin Cities Raceway!

Ohio's Rod Henning took the checkers Saturday night at Twin Cities Raceway park. He would be the 6th different winner in 2019 in 11 events to date.

This by far would be the toughest field of competitors in 2019. Had a stacked field of 22 lighting sprints with many heat and feature winners. Two top contenders also would field two cars with some great talent behind the wheel.

Rod Henning would be one of those fore mentioned cars, driving for Strunk Racing in the 2s hot rod. He would win the heat and feature both. Anthony Haas would also have two entries Saturday, with Jake Hesson piloting the 81jh car. All 4 of these two team cars would finish top two in there respective preliminary events.

Heat race number one would go to Brandon Coffey followed by Anthony Haas, and Jeff Schindler.
Heat race two would see Rod Henning setting pace over Jake Hesson and Keith Langley.
Heat race three went to Drew Dorsett, with Brad Strunk and Cody Trammell in tow.

The feature would roll out 20 strong, 22 were tabbed to go but the 81jh car while sitting in the line up shoot would experience an oil leak, which would end his night of racing action. Mike Farr would not make the call due to an earlier accident in heat action.

Strunk and Haas would set the pace for the start with Henning and Coffey row two and the best on passing points for the evening was Dorsett starting in row three. Strunk would get the jump on the field and lead the first 5 laps. His team car would over take him in turns 3 and 4 on the low side after a few attempts to try the high side of the speedway. Henning would hold the top position and become another first for 2019 MMSA feature winner to add to his many other past feature wins.

Top ten for Saturday included, Henning, Strunk, Trammell, Langley, Nickels, Dorsett, Schindler, Deputy,
Powell, and Haas.

The next MMSA event will be August 16th at Thunder Valley Raceway in Salem Indiana.
