Miller Streaks To Davenport Glory

DAVENPORT, Iowa — The final night of racing at Davenport Speedway before the Mississippi Valley Fair is usually an intense one, such was the case again this season.

For the first time this year, the Outhouse and Storage to Go Container Rentals IMCA Late Model class had a back-to-back feature winner. Evan Miller started in the fourth row and would not see the lead until lap 22 of the main.

Once in front, Miller pulled away and ended with a 1.323-second advantage over second place Jesse Bodin.

Bodin started fifth and would lead twice during the 25-lap affair for a total of 17 laps. Miller and Bodin were not the only lap leaders. Doug Burkhead started in front and led lap one. He would pull off the track several laps later. Nebraska racer Cory Dumpert was back in Davenport to race again. Cory used a couple of bold moves early to take the lead on lap six. Dumpert would fall back several laps later and fade to a fifth-place finish.

Matt Ryan had a solid run, racing from ninth to third. Andy Nezworski was the big mover of the race, starting 18th and finishing fourth.

Kyle Montgomery had a perfect night in the Wangelin’s Auto IMCA Modified division. Kyle led all eight laps of his heat race for the win. He then came back and led all twenty laps of the feature for his first win of the year.

Bill Roberts Jr. got close to Montgomery several times but would have to settle for second. Matt Werner raced from a sixth row start to take third, just ahead of Tony VonDresky. Chris Zogg rounded out the top five.

Logan Veloz re-established himself atop the D&K Home Products IMCA SportMod class. Veloz posted his seventh feature win at Davenport this season. Logan led every lap of the race to get to Competitive Concrete Victory Lane.

Shane Paris made a valiant effort racing from the sixth row to finish second, but had nothing for the leader. Dakota Cole took third, in front of Jarrett Franzen and Cole Stichter.

Koehler Electric Outlaw Street Stock action saw Tony VonDresky capture his fifth feature win on the season.

The wait is finally over for Randy LaMar as he dominated the Thiesen’s IMCA Hobby Stock feature.

Cyle Hawkins collected feature win number four in Fred’s Towing & Cantrell’s Towing 4-Cylinder racing.
