7.18.20 Volunteer Speedway Results
BULLS GAP, Tenn. (July 18, 2020) — With extreme heat scorching the East Tennessee region Saturday afternoon as temperatures reached the mid-90s with heat index at the 100-degree mark, fans were treated to an exciting six division Saturday Night Fever racing program on the legendary high banks at Volunteer Speedway.
Jensen Ford of Johnson City captured the Crate Late Model feature win, while Clyde Stanton of Knoxville recorded the Sportsman Late Model victory.
Logan Hickey of Morristown won the Street Stock feature, and Adam Engel of Knoxville captured the Classic victory.
Zack Walton of Blountville captured the Front Wheel Drive feature win, while Walter Walsh Jr. of Claxton took the Mini Stock victory.
Cameron Weaver set fast-time at 14.115 seconds in Crate Late Model qualifying to barely edge Jensen Ford’s time of 14.140. The duo launched off the fourth turn down the front straightaway on the start with Ford getting the advantage over Weaver to lead the opening lap.
Behind Ford and Weaver back through the field action was two- and three-wide between Rusty Ballenger, Adam Ahl, Michael Smith, Nathan Martin, Jordon Horton, Tim Maupin and Shannon Emery as they jockeyed for real estate. While Ford was being pressured by Weaver out front, the battle for the third spot was heated between Ballenger and Ahl.
With Ford flexing his muscle riding on the point, he also remained cool and collected and never missed a beat to give Weaver the opportunity to overtake him. Ford went on to capture his second win of the season over Weaver, Ballenger, Ahl and Maupin.
Clyde Stanton grabbed the lead at start of the Sportsman Late Model feature over Michael Boyd and Adam Mitchell, while behind them Addison Cardwell, Michael Woods, Brad Dyer and David Bullington battled for position. With the “Mule Hollow Missle” Stanton showing the way out front, Cardwell was up-on-the-wheel working his way around Mitchell and Boyd moving into second and setting his sights ahead on leader Stanton. … Cardwell was hoping Stanton would make a mistake to allow him opportunity to pass for the lead, but the veteran chauffeur Stanton would not be denied his second visit to victory lane this season. Finishing behind Stanton were Cardwell, Mitchell, Woods and Boyd.
Logan Hickey outran Wayne Rader, Tony Trent, Donavan Long and John Fox for the Street Stock feature win.
Adam Engel captured the Classic victory over Chuck Kilian, Charles Bates, Shaun Sise and Jon Cook.
Zack Walton jumped out to lead at start of the 20-lap Front Wheel Drive feature and never looked back en route to recording his second win on the season. Walton was chased to the checkered flag by Marcus Mays, Josh Ramsey, Larry Stapleton and Hunter Price.
Walter Walsh Jr. captured the Mini Stock victory over Chris Amburgey, Damien Holt, Chris Friis and Tommy Cameron.
