Danny Smith takes Bloomington for Second Year in a Row
New year, same winner. Danny Smith defended his 2007 Bloomington O'Reilly Midwest All Star win by taking the checkered flag once again August 22. Smith, in the Doug Williams Trucking 18, gained the lead on about the 5th circuit over Ryan Bunton in the Morton Collision 6r and took command until the final flag flew.
Smith quickly found himself in lapped traffic as he throttled his sprinter around the top, middle and bottom sides of the track making every inch of the surface work in his favor. Lapped traffic allowed Jeff Bland Jr in the Service Drywall 21s to real in the leader, but Smith was just too fast for the competition.
Randy Hannagan, who set quicktime on the night with a 9.904 brought home his Penthouse/PocketShot.net 1x in 3rd. The Mikes Towing 71m peddled by Paul may would come home comfortably in 4th. Pole-sitter Blake Fitzpatrick finished in the 5th spot in his Terre Haute First Bank #10f.
In the night's dash event, Ryan Bunton would take his 6th event of the year. Bunton would lead the green to checkered affair bringing in tow, Smith, Miranda Throckmorton, Hannagan, May, and Brad Greer.
5 cars transfered from the B-Main. Ty Deckard would launch from his pole position to take the lead on all circuits. Joining Deckard in the A-Main would be Kody Kinser, Bobby Stines, Ethan Barrow, and Scott Williams.
Heat race #1 was won by JT Imperial. Imperial was followed by Hannagan and Greer to complete the top 3. Heat race #2 went to Danny Smith with Jerrod Hull and Tom Busch taking second and third. The final heat event was won by Mikey Keumper. Keumper led Arin McIntosh and Jeff Bland Jr.
