Drueke Takes Eagle Checkers, Gullion Earns Title

EAGLE, Neb. – The third-mile high-banked Eagle Raceway drew 145 cars in five divisions for the final point race Saturday night, which served as the lead in to next week’s RaceSaver Nationals.

The IMCA sanctioned classes were led by RaceSaver winged sprint cars, with Adam Gullion bringing a 23-point lead to the track.

Things did not go well for the point leader. Finishing sixth in his heat, Gullion started sixth in the B-Main, which would send four to the feature. He came up two feet short of the final transfer spot, ending his night early.

However, a substantial lead, plus points from the B-Main proved to be enough to claim the division championship.

Four heats moved the top four directly to the main with an additional four from the B-Main filling the field for a 25-lap finale.

Point average determined the lineup of the top-three from each heat, inverting 12 by point average.

Toby Chapman led 22 of 25 laps, efficiently using the bottom line to enjoy a large lead.  Tyler Drueke was running the top and reached second, still well behind Chapman.

Drueke made some progress, but when Chapman switched lines to the top, Drueke dropped to the low line and overtook Champman in turn two and led the final three laps for a win. Chapman was second while Brandon Horton completed the podium.

Sport mods ran an 18-lap main and Bobby Draper was cruising to a win when a restart with four laps remaining bunched the field. Trevor Noonan used the opportunity to use the bottom of turn four to take the lead and win. Cole Wayman was track champion.

The hobby stock feature was led by Brad Schreiner for five laps, but his right-front collapsed, elevating Michael Wade to the top spot. Don Hall Jr. drove under Wade in turn four and led the last 10 laps to win. Jeff Ware was track titleist.

The modified feature saw Shane Hiatt use the top to win the main and Jordan Grabouski was named track champion. Grabouski won 69 mains in 2019 racing a modified and a stock car.

Tenth starting Cole Krichau won the sport compact main and R.J. Mass collected the track championship.
