SEASON CHAMPIONSHIPS AT CRESCO; 2008 TITLES TO WALCH,
SCHMITT, BROSZEIT, HARE, MOUDRY
CRESCO, Iowa (Aug. 22) - H & S Motors presented the Season
Championships on Friday, Aug. 22 at the Cresco Speedway in
Cresco, Iowa with five winners emerging on the night,
along with five drivers being crowned 2008 track
champions.
Defending USRA Modified track champion Kevin Pittman of
Waterloo came up short in his quest to repeat, but
finished on a high note with a victory in the USRA
Modified main event Friday. Justin O'Brien of Volga took
the runner-up spot, followed by Tom Brink of Winona,
Minn., Layne Meyer of West Union and Shawn Ryan of
Waterloo.
Darrin Walch finished ninth in the feature race, but it
was enough to secure the 2008 USRA Modified track
championship. 2005 track champion Ron Konkel, Jason
Schlangen, Pittman and Ryan York rounded out the top-5 in
the final standings.
With his fifth consecutive track title already locked up
and nothing to lose, Tom Schmitt of Independence put an
exclamation point on another dominating season as he raced
from 14th on the starting grid to win the USRA Karl
Chevrolet Stock Car main event. A trio of Decorah
drivers-Kurt Krauskopf, Jake Ludeking and Kevin
Donlan-took the next three spots while Matt "Iron Man"
Greiner of Washington rounded out the top-5 finishers.
Donlan, Krauskopf, Greiner and Waucoma's Tory Reicks
finished second through fifth, respectively, in the final
USRA Karl Chevrolet Stock Car points.
Maynard's Raymond Lundy scored the win in Friday's USRA
Karl Chevrolet B-Mod main event, with Brian Freilinger of
Decorah taking the runner-up paycheck. Third through fifth
went to Matt Jones of Waukon, young Tyler Droste of
Waterloo and Ridgeway's Robb Anderson.
Jimmy Broszeit of Postville secured his track championship
when he took the green flag in the main event. Freilinger
wound up second in points, with Jones third, Brian Schrage
of Cresco fourth and Postville's Koal Deering in fifth.
Scott Spilde of Ridgeway held off Brandon Hare of Elma in
the USRA Hobby Stock feature race, with Kyle Anderson of
Decorah finishing third, Bernie Adams of Stacyville taking
fourth and Nick Schweback of Caledonia, Minn., rounding
out the top-5 finishers.
It was just the opposite for Hare and Spilde in the final
points standings as Hare captured the crown over Spilde.
Anderson was also third in the final rankings, with
Schweback fourth and Adams fifth.
Cody Henkes of Postville grabbed the checkers in the
Outlaw Hobby finale, with Austin Curtin of Waukon
finishing second, Ben Moudry of Protivin third, Dillon
Anderson of Decorah fourth and Kyle Falck of Decorah
garnering a fifth-place finish.
The battle for the Outlaw Hobby points title was the
closest of all the divisions. Anderson held a two-point
lead over Moudry coming into Friday night's H & S Motors
Season Championships, but despite charging from 14th to
fourth in the main event, Moudry's third-place finish was
enough to earn the 2008 track championship by just two
points (1,190 to 1,188) over Anderson. Curtin wound up
third in the final standings, with Falck fourth and last
year's USRA Hobby Stock track champ, Chris Hovden of
Cresco, finishing fifth in points.
Friday's events brought the 2008 racing season to a close
at the Cresco Speedway. RL Promotions and the Mighty
Howard County Fairgrounds would like to thank the fans,
drivers, crew members, sponsors and their staff for
