Martin Is A Randolph County Sprint Invader

MOBERLY, Mo. – Randy Martin utilized one of his old setups to capture the Sprint Invaders feature Sunday night at Randolph County Raceway.

Thanks to Tony Stuart of The Stuart House, the event paid $2,500 to win. It was the veteran’s fifth career feature win with the Sprint Invaders series.

Martin led early in the 20-lap feature over Ayrton Gennetten, who not only had picked up two wins with the Sprint Invaders on the four-tenths-mile high banks in 2020, but also was aboard series owner point leader Scott Bonar’s No. 50.

ASCS visitor Harli White settled into third, while first-time Sprint Invaders competitor Devon Borden roared up on the high banks in his first visit to the track, moving from 10th to fourth within two laps.

Braydn Greubel spun two laps in, setting up a restart. Borden performed a slide job on White to take over third when the green fell again.

The leaders were in lapped traffic by the sixth circuit, but Borden’s podium run hopes came to an end when he tagged the turn-three wall eight laps in.

Martin led Gennetten, White, Austin Alumbaugh and Robbie Price back to green flag racing, but it was short-lived when contact from another car sent driver point leader and seventh-running Chris Martin upside down in turn two. He was uninjured.

Price snatched fourth from Alumbaugh on the restart. Up front, Gennetten put the pressure on the leader as the pair entered lappers with five to go with White not far behind.

However, White’s run would end when she suffered a tie rod issue in the front end, and retired.

The four-lap dash to the finish saw Martin – with a broken nose wing – hold off Gennetten, while Alumbaugh and Price traded the third spot. Price would gain it for good at the white flag, and Alumbaugh and Riley Goodno would trail him to the checkers.

Kaley Gharst, Caleb Thornhill, Cody Wehrle, Wyatt Wilkerson and Colton Fisher rounded out the top 10.

Fisher, Gennetten and Chris Martin won heats. Alumbaugh won the Dash.

“It’s been a jacked up year with everything that’s been going on,” said Martin afterwards. “I think this was only my twelfth race this year. We come up here with a setup I run here years ago, and we thought we’d try it. We were decent all night. We made some changes for the feature, and starting on the front row definitely helps.

“Ayrton is the man to beat up here right now, and to outrun him is a pretty good accomplishment for a 60-year-old man!” he added. “The nose wing broke with three or four to go, and it was a handful. It hung on long enough, and it all worked out.”

Saturday’s rained out event at Lee County Speedway in Donnellson, Iowa will be made up on Saturday, Sept. 19.

The finish:

1. 14, Randy Martin, California, MO (2) 2. 50, Ayrton Gennetten, Gravois Mills, MO (1) 3. 21P, Robbie Price, Cobble Hill, BC, Can.
