Cain, Thompson, Jackson, Bahr lead Battle at The Bullring first-round qualifying

HUMBOLDT, Kan. (March 21)—The Humboldt Speedway hosted the nation’s fastest and nastiest Modified and B-Mod racers on Thursday for a colossal two-headed monster of an event featuring the B-Mod Battle at the Bullring V in conjunction with one of the crown jewels of the USMTS campaign—King of America IX powered by Summit.

Four drivers are tied atop the points after the first night of qualifying. Dave Cain, Cody Thompson, Tony Bahr and defending Out-Pace USRA B-Mod national champion Kris Jackson each scored 123.5 points with their two efforts.

Matthew Kay and Brian McGowen are tied for the fifth spot with a three-way tie for seventh between Jeremy Chambers, Drake Long and Jared Timmerman. Jackie Dalton is 10th, Austin Ellis sits in the 11th position and 12th place belongs to Steve Holzkamper, Jaylen Wettengel and J.C. Morton.

The B-Mods are battling for $8,500 to win Saturday’s main event. Drivers in both classes will race in two heat races Thursday and two more on Friday from four different starting positions with 10 to 14 cars in each. Each driver’s best three efforts will count toward Saturday’s feature lineups with any tie-breakers, if needed, being determined by the fourth heat race.

The top 12 in heat race passing points from the first two nights will be locked into the Saturday finale with the remainder of the field coming from Saturday’s “B” Mains.

B-Mods will award three provisionals (one each from IMCA, USRA and Wissota national points) from the pool of drivers that fail to qualify for the “A” Main on Saturday. A past champion provisional will be available for USMTS competitors.
