It's All Joey Moughan With Sprint Invaders at Jacksonville!
(Bill W) June 25, 2010 - Joey Moughan won his second career Ideal Ready Mix Sprint Invaders feature at the Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Illinois. by leading from start to finish in a feature that went 25 laps without a caution. The win followed up a 410 triumph at the same location two weeks earlier, and paid the Springfield, Illinois driver $1,200.
Justin Parrish won the Green Chevrolet of Jacksonville Shake-Up Dash, and his roll of the die put Moughan outside row one for the feature. Joey had an oil filter send up a plume of smoke on the last lap of the dash, leaving the crowd in doubt that he would make repairs.
Before the feature could go a lap, contact involving several cars in turn four created a complete restart. Ryan Jamison and Korey Weyant made the most contact, with the latter having his left front tire come off the rim. He would continue in the event. Andy Huston was not as lucky, as serious damage on the backstretch ended his night.
Once the green was flown again, the race went non-stop. Joey Moughan shot out to a lead and continued to build on it. "I was lucky enough to get a good draw from the dash up front, and get out in some clean air," he said. "The car was magnificent. It was one of the best I've driven here."
About ten laps in, Moughan found rubber developing through the middle of the turns, and despite the track narrowing, made his way through lapped traffic in good order. His win came by 1/4 of a lap. "I started pushing a little bit, and it felt like the left rear tire was getting some drive," he said. "I took the car through the middle and it was good, so that's where I stayed. I didn't know how close they were, I just didn't want to make a mistake. I want to thank Jeff Hicks, Modern Paving and Scrap and everyone who helps on this car."
At the halfway point, Moughan was chased by Donnie Steward, Kaley Gharst and Ben Wagoner. One lap later, Gharst and Wagoner worked their way into second and third. That would be where they finished. "The place to run early was definitely on the top," said Gharst, who started sixth. "We got a good start. When I saw Steward trying to get high around a lap car, I was able to sneak under him for second."
Wagoner's third place run came in part because he found the rubber early on. "Starting on the outside really helped,": he said. "I think we found the rubber before anyone else did, and we picked a couple off. I think we may have been faster than Kaley later on, but it was hard to pass. The way our year has gone, this was really good."
Parrish, who did a nice job by winning the dash, held on to fourth, ahead of Steward. Matt Sutton, Bobby Mincer, Jim Moughan Jr., Jamison and Bret Tripplett rounded out the top ten.
Heats were won by Parrish, Gharst and Joey Moughan. Jordan Goldesberry had a right rear wheel hub break, sending the #65 sprint car upside down and scratched for the night. Josh Fisher also tipped over in his heat, but the team made repairs in time for him to start the main event.
Next up, the Ideal Ready Mix Sprint Invaders hit the Muscatine County Fair and the West Liberty Raceway in West Liberty, Iowa on Saturday, July 3.

My vote for best Sprint race of the night would be the Golden Eagle Distributors-Budweiser of Burlington first heat battle between Jim Moughan and Ben Wagoner for 2nd place, and a trip to the Green Chevrolet of Jacksonville Shake Up dash. (Bill W, take notice of how I got those sponsors in there. LOL)
The track pretty much locked down in the sprint feature. Not really Bobby Hawk's fault there, as frequent carnage in the Pony Stock and Street Stock heats kind of put them behind the proverbial 8 ball in regards to beating the curfew, leaving no time for track maintenance. (And in fairness to the "stock" classes, both divisions put on entertaining features.)
And I don't think anyone would've had much for Joey Moughan last night even if the track conditions had been more conducive to great racing, as he had placed the lapped cars of Brad Greer, John Draper, Jake Blackhurst, and Seth Wilke between himself and runner-up Kaley Gharst at the checkers.
Racecar spelled backwards is racecar. Racecar upside
down is expensive.

I think that parrish was on fire all nght and if he would have started where joey did no body would have been close to parrish! he won the dash by nearly a straightaway and was extremely fast after he found the rubber passing donny steward on the last lap! congrats to the parrish after having a lot of bad luck all year!
