Inside Line Promotions – BRANDON, S.D. (June 9, 2024) – Austin McCarl, Zach Patterson and Zach Olivier drove to victory on Sunday during Frankman Motor Company Night at Huset’s Speedway.
All three drivers made the race-winning pass with five laps remaining.
Scott Bogucki paced the field for the opening 20 laps of the 25-lap Cressman Sanitation 410 Outlaw Sprint Cars main event before things got wild on a restart on Lap 21. McCarl executed a slide job in turns one and two to take the lead and Bogucki went to return the favor into turns three and four. However, he got sideways and nearly spun, stacking up the field and allowing McCarl to pull away for his 11th career win at Huset’s Speedway.
“Scott ran a great race,” McCarl said before describing how tricky the track was as it changed during the race. “I smelled a little blood and I knew I had to take it (on the restart). I’ve been sick of running second, third and fourth. This feels really, really good. I feel like I’ve got my car back and can do things I need to do.”
Justin Henderson capitalized on the late-race melee to advance into a second-place finish.
“I’m very proud of a podium finish,” he said. “We tried some stuff to get it tighter and tighter. We’ve been learning a lot.”
Kerry Madsen placed third for his third podium in the last four races at Huset’s Speedway.
“I ran out of time,” he said. “The first 10 laps it was kind of hard to pass. Everybody was quick and hard to pass. I got a good rhythm in (turns) three and four. I’m pleased to say we’re disappointed in third, but it’s still a good result.”
Kyle Reinhardt was fourth and Bogucki recovered for fifth.
Jacob Allen and Mark Dobmeier each set quick time during their qualifying groups before Brendan Mullen, Skylar Prochaska, Bogucki and Tim Estenson picked up heat race wins. Tyler Drueke was the B Main winner.
Patterson charged from 11th to capture the victory during the 20-lap Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Car Series A Main. It was his first career driving win at the track as he primarily works on the Big Game Motorsports team that competes on the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series. The triumphant performance also earned the Hard Charger Award for passing the most cars.
“Oh man, I’m a little worn out after that one,” he said. “This is my first ever sprint car win. Jay Masur let me race last year. He’s been super good to me. I couldn’t be more grateful for him and Gracyn Masur. This is her car. I’m happy we could put it in Victory Lane for them.”
Hunter Hanson was the early leader for the first three laps before John Lambertz took over the top spot on a restart on Lap 4. He held the lead until Patterson caught him in traffic on Lap 16.
Lambertz placed second with Nick Barger, Hanson and 12th-starting Brady Donnohue rounding out the top five, respectively.
The heat races were won by Bill Johnson, Corbin Erickson, Brandon Bosma, Koby Werkmeister and Hanson. Jacob Peterson and Michalob Voeltz posted B Main victories.
Ron Howe led the first 15 laps of the 20-lap Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks feature before seventh-starting Olivier drove around him in turn two. Olivier powered into the top spot down the backstretch and dove to the bottom entering turn three on Lap 16.
Meanwhile, Cory Yeigh hustled from 14th into the runner-up position by Lap 17. He closed to Olivier’s rear bumper before the third-and-final caution occurred on Lap 19 to set up a green-white-checkered finish. Olivier was strong on the restart as he powered to his 22nd career triumph at the track.
“Man, that was awesome,” he said. “Shout out to the track crew here. Awesome track.
“Cautions were well timed for sure. I noticed Cory was coming toward the end. I thought about going to the top the last lap or two. I pushed it a lot harder on the bottom the last couple of laps and it seemed to stick.”
Yeigh finished second with Howe ending third. Dan Jensen was fourth and points leader J.J. Zebell advanced from 12th to fifth.
Matt Steuerwald and Howe were the heat race winners.
Next Sunday is Goodin Company Night featuring the Cressman Sanitation 410 Outlaw Sprint Cars, Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks and the Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Car Series. It marks the final Huset’s Speedway weekly event prior to the BillionAuto.com Huset's High Bank Nationals presented by MENARDS showcasing the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series June 19-22.
