Boley & Dave Eckrich Top Twin 25’s At Farley Speedway
Barker Repeats
The Farley Speedway hosted the NASCAR Weekly Racing Series presented by Dodge with a bonus night of racing on Friday, May 10th. Two 25 lap Iowa Illinois Taylor Insulation Late Model features were run in addition to a full program in all the support divisions. The racing action was sponsored by Performance Bodies of Cedar Falls, Iowa.
The first Late Model feature belonged to Steve Boley, the Ron Alpen Ford Mustang shot out front at the drop of the green and never looked back on his way to a flag to flag feature victory. Boley scored an impressive win on the super fast tacky track. Josh McGowan continued his consistent top five streak at Farley with a second place finish crossing the stripe ahead of Dave Eckrich.
The last race of the night was the second NASCAR Late Model feature. Dave Eckrich used a 20 lap restart to set up a move that would net him his first win of the season. Eckrich darted to the inside of race leader Dan Galant and took over the lead at the flag stand on the restart. Eckrich held the lead the remainder of the race in scoring the win. Galant took second after leading the majority of the race. Terry Neal took the checkers in third ahead of Rick Wendling.
Ron Barker continued his recent hot streak in the Quarter Master Modified division. Barker started tenth and quickly worked his way to the front, the 37B of Barker took the lead away from Larry Herring on the fifth lap and went on to win his third feature in four tries at the Farley Speedway in 2002. Herring trailed Barker the entire distance in taking second ahead of Jason Schuller.
Jeff Tharp won his first feature of the season in taking the checkers in the Pro Stock main event. Tharp overtook early leader Bob Moyer on his way to the win. Moyer followed up a win from a week ago with a second place finish. Jeff Kennedy rounded out the top three.
Jim Turpin made his first ever trip to the Farley Speedway victory lane on Friday night. Turpin topped a strong field of Hobby Stocks in leading the 10 lap feature flag to flag. Larry Benn took second ahead of Jason Rauen.
Travis Kaiser added his name to Friday night’s winners list by scoring the win in the all new Farley Flyer division. The win was Kaiser’s first ever win in only his fourth night of racing. Jason Roth took second ahead of Mark Jaeger.
Racing will continue at the Farley Speedway on Friday, May 17th as Johnny B Goods presents 50’s night at the races. Special prizes will be awarded for 50’s attire and several other surprises are in store plus a cruisers car display.
