Four wins in a row for
Lunstra/Dobmeier Motorsports at their home track of River Cities
Speedway is how Mark Dobmeier of Grand Forks started out the
weekend in the Senske and Son Right Choice Electric #13. Mark
started on the 5th row in the main event on the fast 10
second track and quickly grabbed the lead, taking the checkers for
the fourth time in a row.
“It always feels good to win here,”
says Mark. “We have been very fortunate and successful here
at River Cities, and it is a lot of fun to show the guys how all of
their hard work pays off and also to give something for the loyal
fans to come out and see week in and week out. It was a
fantastic race track tonight, it had a nice cushion on the top and
you could really make some serious lap times.”
Following the win at River Cities this
past Friday was another near-win experience at the legendary
speedway of Knoxville. It started out by qualifying 6th
out of the 29 cars with a 15.745, setting the Senske & Son
Right Choice Electric #13 on the inside of the third row for the
heat race to make his way up to fourth. A number 6 pill was
drawn before the night’s main event, lining up Dynamite Dobmeier on
the outside of the front row.
“A front row start is the best place
to be here at Knoxville,” mentions Dobmeier. “We had a great
car going into the main and with some of the runs we have had
throughout the year, I knew we were to have the car to beat.”
Mark certainly had the car to beat as
he took an early, commanding lead and lead until a caution flag
flew with only a few laps to go. With a driver who has won
more races at this track then most right on Mark’s tail, it was
certainly going to play out to be an exciting finish. Terry
McCarl got around Mark with a very close slide job through turns
three and four and made the night’s experience one to remember, as
Dobmeier finished behind the number 24 in the number 2 spot.
“I really enjoy racing against (Terry)
McCarl,” explains Mark following the tight, exciting race to the
checkereds. “He certainly knows his way around this place and
it can be a challenge keeping him behind you, but we raced hard and
clean at the end, giving a nice show for the fans and
unfortunately, Terry came out on top instead of us.”
With a win and a second under the belt
of Lunstra/Dobmeier Motorsports for the weekend, looking into
Huset’s was nothing but positive. With the strong runs
throughout the weekend, the team knew they had a fast race car, and
were geared to win their second of the weekend, following the near
two for two start of it.
Dobmeier made Quick Time on the 3/8
oval with an 11.019 and followed up with a fourth place finish in
the heat. Mark started on the pole of the feature and made
quick work of the speedway, leading the contest from flag to
flag.
