Club All Star Circuit of Champions
By Scott Hall
FARMER CITY, IL - Kevin Huntley earned Monday's
triumph in the Club All Star sprint car card at Farmer
City Raceway. The 40 lap race marked the first Farmer
City stop by the All Stars and was also the first 1995
All Star score for former champion Huntley. His winning
car was a homestate J&J powered by a Bruce Hogue Chevy,
wrenched by D.J. Lindsey and owned by Dean Lindsey,
riding on Pro-shocks and Goodyear tires.
The latter became especially critical. "Once it took
rubber," said Huntley, "It was pretty much follow the
leader. Luckily we got to start on the pole."
Huntley started outside of Kelly Kinser on the front
row. Kinser raced below Huntley until drifting up to
shadow him from second. Terry McCarl moved in front of
Kinser and proceeded to pester the leader.
"I think McCarl was as good as I was, at least,"
Huntley stated. "We had a good race. It's just that I
started in front of him. If it had been the other way
around, I'd of never passed him."
On lap 32, Daniel Coggeshell topped his lap 15 spin
by getting upside down in front of the wooden
grandstands. Once the cars coasted to a stop, Huntley
walked back to inspect McCarl's tire.
"Ha," he grinned. "I have more tite than you," he
told Terry.
With the cars allowed to refuel under the red due to
a large number of yellows, McCarl's mechanic Troy Renfro
swapped shocks in their quest for a third win in as many
nights in a Wesmar Chevy powered Maxim owned by Roger
Hall.
Were they trying to transfer weight to the rear
wheels? "The opposite," McCarl said. "Get it off. With
the rubber, you're hooked up too had. I had an easy
shock on the left front. I took it off to hold that left
front down. I was trying my best to keep it off that
right rear."
Near the end Kenny Jacobs took third from Kinser who
was trailed across the finish line by Randy Kinser and
20th starting All Star points leader Dale Blaney. Though
he spun on a restart with eight laps left, Mike Lutz
lunged back to score seventh over Todd Kane. Danny Smith
stopped for a fresh tire on lap 32 and retrieved ninth
as Frankie Kerr completed the top ten.
Joey Saldana set a new track record at 11.320 seconds
with heats to Todd Kelley, Dave Feese, Jacobs and Blaney
with the Commercial Truck & Trailer Dash to Saldana and
the Outerwears Pre-filters B Main to Jim Carr.
