IMCA Sport Mod Rookie Coy Vlies cashes in at Outagamie Speedway.
(Seymour, WI) August 18, 2023-Race Report presented by Klink Equipment and Elite Coatings Inc- 109 checked in to battle at Outagamie Speedway. There were 23 IMCA Modifieds, 25 IMCA Stock Cars, 25 IMCA Sport Mods, 17 IMCA Sport Compacts and 19 Unified Street Stocks.
Tyler Demars set the pace on the opening laps for the $1,000 to win IMCA Sport Mod feature. A caution on lap 4 allowed Rookie Coy Vlies a shot at Demars and he took it. As the field took the green, Vlies threw a slider going into turn one and made a clean pass for the lead. Vlies was able to keep the field at arm's reach the rest of the way to score the win and a $1,000 payday for his efforts. Jordan Jahnke placed a solid second, Dylon Waldvogel placed third and Matt Radtke was fourth.
The first 17 laps of the IMCA Modified headliner clicked off quickly as Marcus Yarie paced the field. Benji LaCrosse worked from row 6 and into the runner up position just past the midway point. A caution with 3 to go saw Yarie and LaCrosse tangle on the restart. To his dismay, LaCrosse’s machine received damage from the infield tire and he was unable to continue. Yarie held the top spot the final 3 circuits to score the win. Point leader Lucas Lamberies placed second, Dan Roedl was third and Brian Mullen took fourth.
In IMCA Stock Car action it was Scott Besaw and Austin Jansen battling for the top spot. Jansen worked low lap after lap while Besaw ran the cushion. Jansen eventually took the lead but was quickly challenged by last week’s winner, Kyle Frederick. The duo ran door to door the final five laps of the feature. As the pair crossed the stripe it was a virtual dead heat with Frederick winning by a mere .037 seconds. Jansen drove a great race to take second, Besaw was third and Jeff Kropp completed the top four.
Jared Spaulding captured his first ever Outagamie Speedway trophy Friday night in the Unified Street Stocks. Spauling took the lead on lap 7 and pulled away from the field to score a clean sweep on the night. Justin Jacobson took second, point leader Paul Diefenthaler was third and Trey Van Straten completed the top four.
Ben Schulte was victorious in the IMCA Sport Compacts. Schulte fended off the point leader Cody Booth to score the win. Booth placed second, Al Cottrell came from row 7 to place third and with a fourth-place finish Alexis Czarapata had her best run of the season.
