Sanders sweeps USMTS drive through Dairy State
FOUNTAIN CITY, Wis.-Friday night at the Mississippi Thunder Speedway, the Hunt for the USMTS Casey's Cup made its third stop of the week in the Dairy State and Rodney Sanders milked his third victory and another $3,000 out of the prize pool.

Despite starting on the front row for the 40-lap main event, Sanders fell in line behind Bob Timm at the start of the race, and then drifted back to third when Jason Krohn zipped past both drivers on lap 4.

Sanders got around Timm for second three laps later and began to challenge Krohn for the lead, eventually taking over the top spot with 13 laps complete.

Timm, however, roared back ahead of both drivers on the next lap, but Sanders fought back and reclaimed the lead with 18 circuits in the books.

Meanwhile, tenth-starting Jesse Glenz was clawing his way to the front and raced into the second spot with eight laps to go.

There was no catching the defending USMTS national champion, however, and Sanders sailed on to his 23rd United States Modified Touring Series win of the 2014 campaign.

It also gave the 24-year-old from Happy, Texas, his 41st career USMTS triumph, leaving him just one shy of tying the mark of Tommy Myer, who sits fourth on the all-time wins list.

Glenz, who recorded a third-place finish at his home track the previous night, added a runner-up finish to his weekend on Friday night while Krohn came home third ahead of Jeremy Houle, giving the MB Customs chassis a top-four sweep.

Zack VanderBeek, who started 13 after winning the first Real Racing Wheels "B" Main, climbed the ladder to finish fifth while Myer pocketed a sixth-place paycheck.

Stormy Scott finished seventh after starting 22nd on the 26-car grid and earned the Mesilla Valley Transportation Hard Charger Award. Lucas Schott, Joe Duvall and Craig Thatcher rounded out the top 10.

The four-day weekend for the rugged USMTS road warriors wraps up on Saturday at the Ogilvie Raceway in Ogilvie, Minn. Super Stocks, Midwest Modifieds, Street Stocks and Hornets will round out the racing action. The first green flag is scheduled to wave at 6:30 p.m.

Adult tickets are $20, seniors get in for $16, kids ages 7 to 14 are just $5 and children 6 and under are free. Pit passes are $35.

Casey's General Stores will have $2-off coupons at their stores in Cambridge, Milaca, Princeton and Ogilvie. John Allen and his Sour Patch Kids/Oreo Modified will be at the Casey's located at 400 W. Hwy. 23 in Ogilvie from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

VanderBeek finds success in Ogilvie
OGILVIE, Minn.-Zack VanderBeek got around Jason Krohn with six laps to go, and then held off Rodney Sanders in the closing laps to win the Hunt for the USMTS Casey's Cup main event Saturday at the Ogilvie Raceway.

It was the first trip to victory lane for 'The Z-Man' since June 18 in Grain Valley, Mo., and the 27th of his United States Modified Touring Series career.

Krohn beat fellow front-row starter Clayton Wagamon into the first corner to take command of the race at the start with Sanders following into second at the completion of the first lap.

Sanders chased Krohn around the high-banked 3/8-mile track for the next 27 laps before finally making the pass for the lead on lap 29. Krohn, however, did not relent and regained control of the race on lap 32.

VanderBeek, who followed the lead duo for most of the race, pounced on the opportunity to get by Krohn on lap 34, but a caution slowed the pace on lap 37 and set up a three-lap dash to the finish.

Sanders disposed of Krohn on the restart, but VanderBeek pulled away over the final laps to score the win and snap Sanders's three-race win streak.

Krohn held on for third for the second straight night while Wagamon took the fourth spot. Stormy Scott was fifth, and the rest of the top 10 finishing positions went to Brent Larson, Zack Drews, Jody Bellefeuille, Jeremy Nelson and Dave Mass, who passed eleven cars from his 21st starting spot.

With ten down and nine to go, Round 11 in the Hunt for the USMTS Casey's Cup takes place next Friday, Aug. 22, at the Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. On Saturday, the series returns to the Salina Highbanks Speedway in Pryor Creek, Okla., and then wraps up the weekend tripleheader on Sunday at the Outlaw Motorsports Park near Wainwright, Okla.
