State Fair Speedway: Cooney and Davis Again
by
David Wilkinson
(Des Moines, Iowa) (May 10, 2002) Todd Cooney and Maynard Davis III won their third features of the year Friday night at the Iowa State Fair Speedway in IMCA late model and IMCA stock car respectfully. Keith Williamson claimed his first IMCA modified win at the track as Al Thayer took the Karl Chevrolet NDTRA dirt truck win. IMCA hobby stock wins went to Rusty Groves, Bruce Wolfe, and Bob Green
In an exciting IMCA late model feature, Todd Cooney took advantage of a last-lap bobble by leader Craig Jacobs. Both Cooney and Steve Borts passed Jacobs to finish one-two with Jacobs in third and Harold Schriner fourth.
Keith Williamson, in his first year in an IMCA modified, won the modified main ahead of Danny Wallace, Chris Wilkie, and Dave Farren.
Maynard Davis III repeated last week’s victory in IMCA stock cars. Travis Hansaker was second, Don Killen third, and Monty Knode fourth.
Al Thayer captured the Karl Chevrolet NDTRA dirt truck feature with Lou Siplot placing second, Brett Moyer third, and Sean Allen fourth.
In the first of three IMCA hobby stock features, Rusty Groves took the checkered first followed by Jason Murray, Danny Watson, and Adam Hagen. The second hobby main went to Bruce Wolfe. Curt Reed was second with Eric Stanton third and John Thompson. The final hobby feature went to Bob Green with Mark Chance in second place, Michael Thompson third, and Randy Casner fourth.
Racing continues next Friday with the line-up of IMCA late models, modifieds, stock cars, and hobby stocks, along with NDTR dirt trucks. Hot laps begin at 6:00 pm and will be followed by racing.
