By Greg Aregoni
Saturday Night June 10th, 2006- Scott Boyea dueled with Eric Van Iten in a
classic battle for the IMCA Modified Feature win. The lead went back and
forth with Boyea taking the lead for good with two laps to go. The win
was Boyea’s first career feature win at Thunderhill.
Rick Mahlberg grabbed the lead on lap two and maintained the lead through a
series of cautions to win his first IMCA Stockcar feature of the year.
Eddie Anschutz won his second feature win of the season in the IMCA Hobby
Stock feature.
Von Eytcheson grabbed the lead on lap four and went on to win his first
feature of the season in the Street Stocks.
Tom Zastrow won his first feature of the season in the 4 cylinders. Joe
Krauel won his third straight Bomber feature.
Scott Reinhardt led the first three laps in the Street Stock feature before
Von Eytcheson grabbed the lead on the inside lane. Eytcheson led until
the caution flag flew with three laps to go. Eytcheson jumped back into
the lead with Jeremy Wiitala to the outside of him. As they crossed the
start and finish line and headed into turn one on the last lap the caution
flew for a Tim Jandrin spin. Once the white flag is displayed the next
flag can only be the checker. The race goes back to the last completed
lap. Eytcheson got the win followed by Wiitala, Reinhardt, Geno Sternard, and
Aaron Thornton.
Ryan Lemieux led the first lap of the IMCA Stockcar feature before getting
loose in turn three handing the lead over to Rick Mahlberg. Mahlberg
continued to lead despite heavy pressure from Todd Polster. Mahlberg
continued to lead until a Ben Kroll spin with six laps to go. In an
unusual circumstance for the Stockcars there where five more cautions before
the checkered flag flew. Mahlberg was able to keep the lead with the
green, white, checker finish. Mahlberg went to win his first feature of
the season followed by Charlie Kroll, Matt Junio, Polster, and Pat Davister.
Eric Van Iten led the opening five laps before Scott Boyea made a move to the
inside for the race lead. The duo stayed side by side until the
checkers. Boyea ran the bottom line while Van Iten stayed in the middle
to high groove on the track. Art Siefert and Benji Lacrosse were left to
battle for third. Coming to the white flag, Boyea was finally able to
get enough momentum to keep the lead for good. It was Boyea’s first
career feature win at Thunderhill. Van Iten finished runner-up followed
by Siefert, Lacrosse, and Shawn Kilgore.
Tom Zastrow and Kenny Malcore had a great battle for the four-cylinder feature
win. The traded the lead many times with Zastrow nipping Malcore at the
line for the win. Zastrow earned his first win of the season. In
heat race action, the top two in points, Brothers Tony and Nick Everard both
flipped their cars in consecutive laps. They were both ok.
