Pierce doubles up at Davenport
DAVENPORT, Ia. (August 25, 2023) – Night #2 of the My Place Hotels Quad Cities 150 presented by Hoker Trucking LLC. ended much like Night #1. Bobby Pierce captured the Case Construction World of Outlaw Late Model feature and collected another check for $10,000.
The 35-lap main started with Shane Clanton and Chris Madden battling for the lead. Madden held the advantage and led the first twenty laps of the event. Pierce went to the high side to pass Madden for the lead. Despite a late race caution, Pierce pulled away from the field. Bobby finished with a 1.473 second gap over second place Madden.
Brandon Sheppard started eighth and was three-wide nearly half the race. B-Shepp took third, ahead of Dennis Erb Jr. and Clanton. Marshalltown, Iowa racer Ryan Gustin took sixth.
There were three repeat heat race winners from Thursday, Cade Dillard, Bobby Pierce, and Shane Clanton. The lone new heat winner was Chris Madden. Last Chance Showdown winners were Chad Simpson and Matt Lux. Dillard was fastest in qualifying, posting a lap of 13.516 seconds.
The Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series wasted no time letting the Davenport crowd know they were in town. Ryan Timms set a new midget track record in qualifying with his lap of 14.089 seconds.
In the 30-lap A-Main, Timms jumped out to a huge lead over the field. Unfortunately a blown engine with six laps remaining would end his race. Ninth place starter Zach Daum led the field back to green. Cannon McIntosh made a serious bid for the lead on the restart, but Daum was able to power away on the inside. The victory was his fourth of the season.
Point leader McIntosh finished second with Hayden Reinbold third. Thomas Meseraull finished fourth followed by Taylor Reimer in fifth.
Saturday at Davenport Speedway is the final night of the Quad Cities 150. Bobby Pierce will attempt to become the first racer to sweep the weekend. The late model feature will pay $30,000-to-win. The Xtreme Outlaw Midgets will also be in action. Their feature will pay $5,000-to-win.
