title for 2002 with the win! |
Eddie May of Crystal Lake, Illlinois the 1986 late model champion
won the 50 lap feature.May said after the race “it’s great to be able to race
and not crash, Fran (Prestay who finished second) was fun to race with as he gave me all
the room I wanted and do the same for me thank you the fans for being here and support us
and to the great sponsors of the series and” and received $1000 for his win. Sonny
Schoffen was second in the 25 lap McHenry Limousine super stock feature but after a DQ of
the apparent winner he was awarded the race win. James Swan of Lake Geneva clinched the
Performance unlimited sportsman division title as the 2001 McLeodUSA champion won his
sixth feature of the season.
Fran Prestay used his outside pole starting spot to jump in front of the super late model
feature with Terry Patnode, Scott Poritz and Jerry Cowan next. It was an extremely tight
formation as the next ten laps looked just the opening one as Poritz and Patnode fought
for the second position. Eddie May who started third row inside was working his way
around these two with Wayne Freimund all over Cowan. With such a tight field any little
mistake would be costly to someone and on lap thirteen something happened as Jamie
Wallace, Kent Burkoth, and Rick Corso the fast timer got together halting the grueling
pace.
As the green reappeared May slipped along side Prestay and the match up would begin.On lap
fifteen Jerry Freeman got past Freimund as the top ten were close. On lap thrity one fast
qualifier Donovan Morgan scared everyone as he entered the straightaway after turn four
and got lose. Morgan pulled off the move of the race causing no harm as he just nipped the
rear of Matt Kocourek’s car but everyone continued without an incident. Prestay and
May had a see saw battle for the front position as Prestay would lead each lap at the
wire.
There was some movement throughout the field but with positions still too close to call
race fans were treated to an excellent race.With the white flag out Prestay looked like he
pulled off the big win but coming to the line May pulled him across the line for a
thrilling finish to a one stop race.Poritz held on to third with Cowan Freeman and Morgan
next.
Norm Paulsen scooted out front of the super stock main event with Jack Clark Greg Beebe
Sonny Schoffen and rookie Ken Eisbrenner looking like they were glued together. By lap
nine Schoffen was knocking on Paulsen’s door as Mike Gunderson now moved into third
after starting fourth row outside. Schoffen took over the front spot on lap ten but then
the only caution of the race came on lap thirteen when a close running Scott Scholl and
Beebe tangled.
On the restart Schoffen know Gunderson was there and after a three lap fight for the top
spot Gunderson was the new leader. Right behind these two Dan Huber was looking for any
slip by the top two. Paulsen was right behind Huber and Jack Rubach was next. The
final five laps were awesome as the top eight were side by side looking for advancement.
Guderson in
the first night with his new car after totally destroying his other one three weeks ago
came across the line in first place for his second win of the season. Rookie Schoffen was
second with Huber at his side and Rubach at his rear. Fast timer Bob Moeller was fifth and
Scott Eggebrecht was sixth. A post race inspection dropped Gunderson for too much
compression and Paulsen was credited with sixth as Schoffen won the event.
Jocko Terrault led three laps of the sportsman feature before Brian Baker moved in front
but on lap six the only stoppage came after Jeff Peterson spun. This gave James Swan the
advantage he needed by closing the gap on Baker. Then came lap eleven and the lead changed
hands with Swan winning the crown and the race.Baker held on to second with Zac Deeringer
Nick Schumacher quick timer Kenny Joosten and Kevin King in a tight pack.
