Russell, Turner headline Alex Brown Memorial at U.S. 36

We at US 36 Raceway would like to thank all drivers and fans for the great turn out as we honored Alex Brown. We would also like to congratulate Garrett Stonum and Jadyn Ramey on their engagement during Intermission, best of luck for a happy marriage!!!

After a heartfelt opening ceremonies Mod Lites would take to the track fist and see a new winner in Nextran Victory Lane. Jeff Raffurty #75 from Holt, MO would take the early lead only to see Riley Clem #9X charge by and claim the front spot. Heat Winners Dillon Raffurty #46 and Garrett Stonum #4K would be in the mix challenging Clem but the Bakersfield, CA driver would not be shaken and hold the top spot. In the closing laps Dillon Raffurty would run down the fast Clem but could not make the pass and see Clem pick up the feature win. As Clem would celebrate in Nextran Victory Lane, Dillon Raffurty would place second with Jeff Raffurty slipping to third. Stonum would place fourth with the always fast Michael Raffurty #41 rounding out the night’s top five.

Pure Stock would roar to the track next and what a show they would put on for the fans. Heat race winner Jake Starmer #11J and Tobin Bartlett #28 would battle for the lead and appear to be the cars to beat. These two would go back and forth for the lead until Jeffrey Sears #13J would make his way through the pack and challenge. Sears would wait till the closing laps to make his move on Starmer and take the top spot. Sears would make it two in a row on the high banks and appear to be set for a run at the track championship in 2023. Sears would win, Jake Starmer would place second with Tyler Starmer #11S a close third. Fourth would see Corey Myers #16 with Bartlett slipping slightly to finish fifth.

USRA B-Mods were high in number and quality as the challenged the high banks of US 36 Raceway. Heat winners Tyler Cadwallader #69er and Daniel Harris #07 would start on the front row with Cadwallader taking the early lead. Harris would challenge for the front with other heat winner Shadren Turner #56 in the hunt for the front as well. Turner would get past Harris and set his sights on Cadwallader as the laps slipped away. Cadwallader would run a near flawless feature as Turner would hound him lap after lap and try him both high and low. Turner would use both poise and patience and make his way around Cadwallader in the closing laps picking up his first win on the high banks of US 36 Raceway for Whitt racing in 2023. Turner would celebrate the win with Cadwallader second and Daniel Harris third. Eddie Ingram #54 would place a solid fourth with Henry Chambers #17 rounding out the night’s top five. Other heat race winner was Luke Nieman #181 and B-Feature winner was Kyle Henning #1.

IMCA RaceSaver Sprints would charge to the track with heat race winner J R Topper taking the front and holding off all challengers early. Jay Russell #76 would waste no time getting to the point and get past Topper #92J to take the lead. Natalie Doney #74 was the big mover of the feature as she would work her way through the pack and get pass Topper for second in the closing laps. Jacob Dye #20D and Chris Couch #36 were in the hunt as well with both cars finding speed as the race progressed. Jay Russell would claim the checkers with Doney a solid second place and Topper third. Fourth place would belong to Jacob Dye with Couch rounding out the night’s top five finishers.

Stock Cars would roll on to the fast smooth track to honor Alex Brown on this special night of racing. Tim Eaton #63 would take advantage of a heat race win and use his front row starting position to get out front early. Matthew Lance would again show speed as he would run down Eaton and challenge for the front with Conner Masoner #47X in tow. Other heat winners Randy Smith Jr #75X and Mich Ross #34X would challenge but Eaton would hold steady in the lead. Eaton would not be denied and pick up the checkers and celebrate the Alex Brown Memorial Win in Nextran Victory Lane. Lance would come home in the second position with Conner Masoner third, Smith Jr fourth and Jaylen Wettengel #91J ending the feature fifth.

Brad Mick #31 is the driver to beat in sport compact in 2023 as he would pick up both a heat race win and feature win on this night of competition. Mick would get out early as other heat race winner Keegan Russell #751 would challenge early and often. Mick would not be denied and pick up the feature win with Russell a close second and Jeremy Sims #5J third. Fourth would go to the #22V of Lucas Winder with Laura Davis #22L finishing the night fifth.
