Hahn Wins By 8.8 Seconds At Humboldt

HUMBOLDT, Kan. – Following an early race battle with Ryan Timms, the end of 30 laps at Humboldt Speedway saw Blake Hahn dominate the three-eighths-mile oval for his fourth career victory with the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Sooner Region presented by Smiley’s Racing Products.

After three attempts to get the A-Feature rolling, the caution flew once more with a single lap complete as Hahn and Timms traded slide jobs for the lead, with the caution negating the pass by Hahn for the top spot.

Back to trading the lead as the green flag flew, Hahn was able to secure the point off the fourth turn to lead lap two. Picking through traffic at the race’s half-way point, Timms was able to close slightly as Sean McClelland moved to battle for second.

Giving Timms a run, McClelland slipped back into the tire tracks of the No. 5t as the laps began to dwindle, with Hahn rolling under the checkered flag 8.830 seconds clear.

Timms held on for second, and his best career ASCS regional finish, with McClelland on the final podium step. Austin O’Neal ran to fourth and Jeremy Campbell picked up four spots to finish fifth.

Mitchell Moore was sixth after starting 12th, with Alex Sewell charging from 17th to seventh. Brandon Anderson, who was involved in the first caution of the night, came back to eighth. Forrest Sutherland and Jeff Stasa completed the top 10.
