Autograph Session
By David Morgan
(West Salem, WI - May 28, 2005) It was a good night to be quick at the La
Crosse Fairgrounds Speedway. Andy Burgess took quick time in the Kwik Trip
NASCAR Late Model division, and chased down Chris Skrede and Steve Holzhausen
to take the feature win, while Dan Linnehan chased down Lucas Korish, and then
held off Tom Thill for the Ray Hutson Chevrolet Sportsman feature win.
In the late model feature, Bill Niles looked well on his way to taking his
first late model checkered, but the combination of a yellow flag on lap eight,
and an exhaust pipe slipping out the side of his car put him to the back of
the field, and then into the pits by lap 15. Niles’ misfortune after the
caution that saw Dan Steele hit the turn two wall hard, allowed Chris Skrede
to take the lead, and he opened up a five-car advanage as Steve
Holzhausen and Burgess charged through the field.
Holzhausen led the way, ducking inside of Tony Bagstad on lap 11, and then
going outside to get by Tom McClintock a lap later. he closed Skrede’s lead
quickly, with Burgess taking two more laps to move into third. Holzhausen took
the lead on lap 18, powering by Skrede on the backstretch.
Burgess also used the high line to move by Skrede a lap later, but he was able
to edge his Menard’s Monte Carlo underneath Holzhausen in turn one on lap
21, and pull into the lead on the backstretch for his second win of the
season. Holzhausen was second, followed by Skrede, McClintock and Todd Oliver,
who edged Kevin Nuttleman at the line. Nuttleman was sixth, followed by
Charlie Menard, Brent Kirchner, Mark Lamoreaux and Todd Korish.
Burgess was fast qualifier for the fifth time, averaging 98.942 MPH for his
quickest lap in the two-lap run. Jeff Baker and Adam Degenhardt took the
qualifying heat wins, while Kevin Nuttleman and Mike Belling won the Bud
Dashes.
Linnehan managed to do what Lucas Korish could not, holding off a challenge on
a restart, as he took the Sportsman feature win. Korish led for the first ten
laps, before Linnehan used a restart after a caution - caused by a Tony Leis
spin - to move to the front. Bill Miller spun on lap 13, giving a
hard-charging Tom Thill a shot at Linnehan with two to go. Thill got a
quarter-panel underneath Linnehan on the backstretch, but was unable to pull
alongside, as Linnehan took his first win of the year.
Thill was second, followed by Korish, Trent Boettcher, and Dan Gilster.
Gilster had made a run on Korish after an early restart, but was unable to
hold the outside line, allowing Linnehan by on the inside to set up his battle
with Korish for the lead.
Emily Sue Steck came up from the rear of the field in the non-qualifying heat,
taking the lead with 3 laps to go to get her first checkered in the sportsman
division. Rob Mason and Mike Carlson took qualifying heat races, while the Bud
Dash wins went to Branden Berg and Jimmy Gilster. Linnehan was fast timer, at
88.582 MPH. Rob Curran came away the victor in the B-Main.
Despite a car hard into the wall early, and two spins, the United Auto Supply
Thunderstox managed to keep their race green from start to finish, and Jeff
Stumlin managed to hold off all challengers to take the win. Todd Lockington
was second, followed by Jason Schaller, Steve Owen and Justin Berg.
Points leader Jason Bolster totaled his car at the end of the first heat, when
he slammed the frontstretch wall while avoiding a last-lap spin. Greg Lindvig
took that heat win, while the other four heats went to Steve Owen, Andy
Barney, Andy Moore and Dan Erdmann. Bolster jumped into Denise Miller’s ride
for the B-Main, but was unable to advance to the feature as Adam Moore took
the win. Ron Heller claimed the checkers in the Bud Dash. Chris Vinson took
the win in the C-Main.
This weekend, the annual Kid’s Night races will be held, with a 10,000 penny
scramble before the races, and all the action of the NASCAR Kwik Trip Late
Models, Ray Hutson Chevrolet Sportsman and United Auto Supply Thundertox, plus
the fan-favorite Outhouse Race. Qualifying begins at 5:05, with the first race
at 7:30 p.m.
