Another Win for Lunstra/Dobmeier Motorsports
7/13/2009
Lunstra/Dobmeier
Motorsports starts the race weekend out with a bang this past
Friday at their home track of River Cities Speedway.
Finishing 3rd in the heat race lined up the Senske &
Son Delta Oil #13 on the outside of the 4th row for the
main event. At about 16 laps to go, “Dynamite” Dobmeier took
the lead and came out on top grabbing his 5th win of the
year at River Cities.
Following the win,
it was off once again to Knoxville Raceway for their double feature
night. Dobmeier qualified 4th quick with a time of
15.419 just .256 seconds behind the quick time set by the
#24.
Mark started on the
inside of the 3rd row to begin the adventures of the
heat race. Going into the first corner as Mark was running
the high line, McCarl was attempting the pass on the bottom, but
the two of them got together knocking the rear end out of square on
the Lunstra/Dobmeier sprinter. Dobmeier then struggled
through the remainder of the heat for the attempt of a decent
finish, but fell back to 9th at the time of checkered
resulting in a start for the B-Main.
With the Senske
& Son Delta Oil sprinter fixed and ready for action, Dobmeier
started on the outside pole in the “B”. Terry McCarl and Mark
Dobmeier made a very exciting race to the end as the Dobmeier
finished right behind the #24 in the second spot to transfer into
the main event.
“McCarl got a good
run at the beginning of the race,” explains Mark, “But towards the
end of the race I was right behind him and just ran out of laps to
overtake him. The Senske & Son Delta Oil machine was
right on the money.”
At 17th,
Dobmeier took the green flag to start the main event and while
moving forward, a 4-car pileup going into turn one of the second
lap gathered Mark and destroyed the frame ending the chances to a
finish in the main. “I just had nowhere to go,” says Mark, “I
went into the corner and realized that I was just in a bad spot I
couldn’t get out of. So I held on and rode it out. The
car was pretty damaged, the frame was bent but we were able to make
the car good enough to start the second main event of the double
feature night to collect the starting points in our chase in the
championship.”
The next night was
to be Huset’s Speedway in Brandon, SD, but with an early morning
downpour, the speedway canceled the event at 2PM. Lunstra/Dobmeier
Motorsports made the decision to attempt the World of Outlaw event
at Cedar Lake Speedway. Knowing they were going to be late
put the pressure on, but unfortunate road construction in downtown
Minneapolis delayed the team to make the event.
