McCarl Wins Danny Young Memorial
by David Wilkinson
(Des Moines, Iowa) Terry McCarl won the 6th Annual Danny Young Memorial for 360 sprint cars Friday night at the Iowa State Fair Speedway. This was McCarls second victory as he won the first running of Young memorial in 1996. Danny Young, who died in an accident during a World of Outlaws show at the Knoxville Speedway in 1995, was a young sprint car racer who won 62 of his 117 lifetime victories at the Iowa State Fair.
Brent Anthill jumped into the lead of the 20-lap feature, but was passed by two-time Young Memorial winner Don Droud Jr. on the third lap. Droud pulled away from the field and looked like he would repeat last years win. On lap nine, Droud spun his car on the backstretch. McCarl, who started in the sixth row, was third behind Anthill and Jason Danley on the restart. McCarl picked off Danley on the next lap and passed Anthill on the following lap and won easily. Tony Norem, started 21st after winning the B-feature finished second with Dennis Moore Jr. third and Randy Martin fourth.
The two features for IMCA hobby stocks were completed before rain arrived and halted the rest of the program. In the first hobby feature, Kris Walker passed Jason Murray at the halfway point in the first feature and claimed the victory. Murray finished second, Keith Williamson third, and Craig Roberts was fourth. After the race, Murray was disqualified for an illegal carburetor.
In the second hobby feature, Dustin Smith led the entire race for the victory with Richie Gustin, Adam Hagen, and Justin Maschke following him to the checkered.
The rain postponed the features for IMCA modifieds, IMCA stock cars, and NDTR trucks until next Friday. That program will begin early with the delayed features at 6:30 followed by a full program of racing.
