Rain Halts Knoxville After Heats; Features to Be Made Up at a Later Date
by Bill Wright
KNOXVILLE, Iowa (April 23, 2022) – The Knoxville Raceway did what it could to thwart Mother Nature’s Spring Iowa onslaught, but the rains arrived after the heat races on Saturday night. The features for the 410, 360 and Pace Performance Pro Sprints will all be made up at a later date.
Before the rains, Justin Henderson set the standard in time trials with the 410’s at 14.887 seconds. Heats were won by defending track champion Davey Heskin, Sawyer Phillips and Austin McCarl. McCarl and AJ Moeller will pace the make-up feature.
In the 360 class, Calvin Landis locked in quick time at 16.020. Clint Garner, Christopher Thram and rookie Chase Randall won heats. Terry McCarl and Garner will start up front in the make-up event at a later date.
In the Pro Sprints, Scotty Johnson was quickest at 17.068 seconds. Eric Bridger and Matt Allen won heats. Jeff Wilke and Tyler Barrick will start up front in the 15-lap make-up.
Join us next Saturday, April 30, for more Knoxville Raceway action! All three divisions will be in competition. It’s a special week for the 360 class, who will battle for $3,000 as part of the double bonus night to win with the Midwest Power Series in conjunction with Jackson Motorplex.
