Bogucki scores Davenport Sprint Invader victory

DAVENPORT, Ia. (June 23, 2023) – Mclaren Vale, South Australia is a long, long way from Davenport, Iowa. But Scott Bogucki made the journey pay off with a victory in the A-feature.

The Ausie racer was in town to compete with the Sprint Invaders racing series at Davenport Speedway, Friday night. Bogucki is in this country to race while it is winter back home.

The Sprint Invaders feature started with front row starter Paul Nienhiser taking the early lead. Nienhiser of Chapin, Illinois, led the first twelve laps of the 25-lapper. Bogucki started sixth and quickly worked his way to second. After a lap eleven restart, Scott made his move and took control of the race.

Nienhiser would not let Bogucki get away, hounding him until the final laps. While the leaders were fighting for the win, Colton Fisher of Mediapolis, Iowa was steadily moving forward. Fisher started fifteenth, but would not see the top five until seven laps to go. Fisher knocked off two more competitors in the final laps to finish third, 1.442 seconds back. Tasker Phillips and Ryan Bunton rounded out the top five.

Bogucki, Phillips, and Dustin Selvage won the heat races. Bret Tripplett won the B-main, while Bogucki made it a clean sweep with a win in the dash. Twenty-seven entries were on hand to race with the Sprint Invaders on Friday.

Travis Denning picked up his second Eriksen Chevrolet IMCA Modified feature win of the year. Denning started tenth and had to track down early race leader Tony VonDresky. On lap twelve, Denning assumed the lead. He then had to hold off a charging Chris Zogg to take the win. Zogg finished second, less than half a second behind Denning.

Matt Stein ran consistently in the top five before finishing third. VonDresky came home fourth followed by Mitch Morris.

The Matzen Trucking IMCA SportMod main quickly boiled down to a battle of the usual suspects – Ben Chapman and Logan Veloz. This time it was Veloz who was in victory lane.

Logan started ninth and would take the lead on lap nine. Chapman started tenth, but stalled out when he got to second. Justin Veloz, Kasey Williams, and Jason Roth were third through fifth respectively. For Veloz, it was his third win of the year at Davenport. Veloz and Chapman have combined for nine wins in the eleven SportMod features held at Davenport this year. Tony Olson is the only other SportMod racer to win at Davenport in 2023.

Landen Chrestensen scored his second Koehler Electric Street Stock victory this year. Landen started on the pole and led all fifteen laps of the race. Jeff Struck Jr. started fifth and quickly drove to second place. Struck had nothing for the leader and would settle for a second place finish. Nick Hixson would finish third, followed by Jesse Owen and Cary Brown in that order.

Dustin Forbes ended Cyle Hawkins winning streak in the QCjeeps.com Sport Compact feature. Forbes held off Hawkins for all twelve laps and the victory. The win was Forbes’ first of the year at Davenport. Hawkins finished second with Thomas Adams a distant third. Roy Schmidt and Michael Lundeen completed the top five.

Next Friday, June 30th, will see weekly point racing action at Davenport Speedway. All six weekly classes will be racing.
