Brad Strunk wins at Thunder Valley Raceway.
Brad Strunk turned a bad night into another yet another MMSA win. Brad would have mechanical issues in his preliminary event Friday night at Thunder Valley. These issues would make Strunk’s night a bit of a more hurdle to over come.
Heat one would be all Brandon Coffey as he would lead all 8 laps ahead of Ethan Rutherford and Cody Beard.
Heat two would be one to just finish the race to move on. Couple mini sprints would find themselves upside down in this event. Casey Meyer and Jason Mills got together and both ended up on their sides. Both uprighted and would walk away from their cars. Cody Trammel would win heat two over Travis Stickels and the ailing car of Strunk.
Heat three Brandon Deputy set pace over Jake Hesson and Keith Langley to the checkers.
Completion of heat races would now set feature starting field. Row one would be Stickels and Hesson, row two Deputy and Coffey, row three with highest passing points would be Jeff Schindler and Trammel.
The nineteen car field would race into turn one, Tim light would get into the Haas car and start a series of rolls and twists. Tim would be fine but dejected. The restart would see Stickels jump out front for a lap, Trammel would make quick work to get his machine to the front. Trammel would lead several circuits before his engine would expire. This left Stickels at the point for the next several laps before he experienced fuel pick up issues. Now upfront would be Ethan Rutherford he would lead several laps before he started to experience engines problems also. The forementioned bad night for Brad Strunk just gotten a lot brighter as he, from the 9th starting position would put his entry out front for the last 3 laps of the feature event to claim yet another MMSA feature event.
The top ten were; Strunk, Coffey, Rutherford, Langley, Parker, Beard, Haas, Chambers, Schindler, and Meyer.
Next MMSA event will be at Bloomington Speedway of Friday night August 30th, followed by August 31st at Wayne County Raceway.
