Jackson County Speedway Results 9-3-2011

Rob Stambaugh and Greg Oliver would bring the modified feature to the green flag. The two would pace the field until a lap 4 red flag for driver Mike Davis. Davis would hit the turn three guardrail full throttle coming to a stop facing the opposite direction. Davis would have to be cut out of the car, with the driver going in and out of consciousness and complaining of tingling in his legs. He would then be life flighted to Grant Hospital as a precautionary measure. After an hour and a half delay the racing would resume and would become hot and heavy up front. Jimmy Smith would get around Greg Oliver on Lap 8, then on lap 13 Smith and Oliver would get around Stambaugh for the lead. Robin Duston would take third from Stambaugh on lap 15 as the Smith would begin to pull away. As the checkered flag flew Smith would claim the feature on his first visit to the speedway. Rounding out the top ten behind Smith would be Oliver, Duston, Stambaugh, Ryan McCarley, Jeff Votaw, Justin Murray, Eddie Cottrill, Chad Roush and Derrick Shadwick.

A huge field of street stocks took their opportunity for the last tune up before the $2,500 to win Street Stock Nationals. Brandon Thompson and Bruce Gray Jr would lead the field to the green with Thompson quickly staking claim as the leader. Thompson would have one of his best runs of the season as he would lead the first 7 laps. Lee Neil would make the pass for the lead on lap 8 and on the same lap Thompson would loop it in turn three going for the lead. Lee Neil would go on to lead the next several laps but to count out Jamey Adams would be foolish. Adams would take his sixth starting position and pick his way to the front. Adams would run third for several laps, but with two to go Adams would make his move. Adams would complete the pass for second and set his sights on the leader. Adams and Neil would be side by side at the white flag. Adams would complete the pass down the backstretch and go on to win yet another feature in impressive style. Rounding out the top ten behind Adams would be Neil, Davey Akers, Brandon Mather, Jim Helterbran, Mike Brust, Kevin Woodall, Jack Martin, Jeff Sheets and Brandon Thompson.

In the Outlaw 4 Cylinder Steve Cruse would find himself out in the lead early. The race would go caution free and Cruse would cruise his way to yet another victory at McCown’s Jackson County Speedway. Behind Cruse was Todd Ervin, Scott Henry and Joey Johnson.
In the Stock 4 Cylinder feature Chris Strickland would cross the line first but post race tech inspections would disqualify the driver and Todd Miley would be credited with the win. Behind Miley would be Justin Webb, Tommy Cox, Fred Topping and Brandon Allen.
