Ryan Holds On For Win, Schultz "ThreePeats" At Elko
(Elko, MN) Jake Ryan held off a determined Donny Reuvers on his way to
the 50 lap Budweiser Super Late Model win Saturday Night at Elko
Speedway. Ryan was able to drive to victory lane in front of the
Heritage Night crowd including NASCAR Legends Bobby Allison and Ned
Jarrett. Ryan and Jon Lemke battled from the front row in the early
going with Ryan finally gaining the point. Steve Murgic broke down the
front straight sending his ride hard into the turn one wall, gathering up the
Brian Johnson car. Ryan again gained the point off the restart and
pulled away from the field while Lemke and Conrad Jorgenson exchanged paint
battling for second. Lemke’s ride broke loose and spun on lap 40
causing a trip to the back of the field. It appeared that Reuvers pulled
off the win, but a caution just before the checkered flew caused a
green-white-checkered finish with Ryan holding on for his first win of the
season. Reuvers settled for second with Jorgenson in tow followed by
Benny Van Cleve and Jamie Farrell.
Steve Schultz made it look east in winning his third feature in three races
for the GhostRiders Sportsmen. Schultz built up an early lead and easily
withstood the races only restart after a caution flew on the 22nd
circuit. Greg Bieber made his way to second and held off a determined
Doug Brown for the second spot. Brown crossed the line third with Dan
Whitehead and Justin Neisius in tow.
Jerry Thomsen showed fortitude in taking the win in the Coca-Cola Thunder Car
25. After two early cautions, Thomsen grabbed the lead on lap 13 from
Chris Cooley. Cooley stayed with Thomsen the rest of the way but settled
for second followed by Matt Carlander, Joe Garofalo and Ted Reuvers.
It looked like Heath Herman had the field covered in the ACDelco Power Stocks
20. Car problems with just one circuit left sent his mount to the
infield as he watched Brock Weber cross the line for the win. Weber was
followed by Chad Tuma, Matt Ryan, Jeff Partington and Tim Hollen.
It will be double time for Elko Speedway this weekend. Friday night will
be the first of four Eves of Destruction including Dueling Monster Trucks and
