Airborne Park Speedway Week #

Justin Stone (15x) and Jordan Formwalt (24f) battled for the lead during the main of the Hartson Total Opening 358 Modifieds, which would see Stone get his first win of the season. It would be the second week of the Thursday Night Thunder Series, and this week we would have double features for the Renegades as part of the rain-shortened event from the week before, along with the spectator races. The evening would start with the makeup for the Renegades feature from last week's rain-shortened event. It would see Shawn Fountain get the lead at the start of the race over Nathan Irland Guay. Still, there would be a battle up front between Shawn Duquette and Shawn Fountain through the middle part of the event that would see Duquette get the lead and take it to the house for the victory over Fountain and Tylor Terry. Then we would run the heat races for the races that were scheduled this week, along with the Spectator races that were run at intermission, which would see RJ Rivera get the win. Then, for the night's first feature, we would have the Dirtcar 358 Modifieds that would see Tanner Siemos and Justin Stone start on the front row, and Stone would get the lead off the start of the race. There would be a battle up front between him and Jordan Formwalt for most of the event but there would a hard charger that would come up from his 12th starting spot and put his nose in the fight down the stretch and that would be Mike Mahanney but it would not be enough as Justin Stone would get the win on this night. Then we would have the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified and see Brent Warren get the lead off the start over Jason McClatchie, and there would be a duel between them for the first few laps. Although there would be a pair of hard chargers that would make there way up from the 18th and 16th starting spots and get there nose in there and that woiuld be a pair of champions in the names of Donovan Lussier and Nivk Heywood, Lussier would get the lead late and score his second win of the season over Warren and Heywood. Then we would have the Mini Stocks for their 15-lap event, and it would see Jamie Whitney get the lead off the start of the race over Kyle Hart, but the battle up front for the early part of the race would be between Whitney and Harnden. Although as in the earlier races on the night there would be charge from middle of the pack this time from JP Corrow that would see him get by Whitney in the last five laps and then the battle would be on up front between Corrow Blake and Botala that would see Corrow get his second right win on the season. Then we would have the Hoosier Tire Limited Sportsman Modified for their 15-lap event and would see Parker Dermody get the lead off the start of the race over Lea Jeanne Lauzire, but Garin Thompson would come up and get by both of them for the lead and ride that to his first win of the season. Then to finish off the night of racing, we would have the second 9th State Cannabias feature on the day that would see Josh Terry get the lead off the start of the race and see him and Tyler Irwin go after the lead in the early stages. Still, Taylor Terry would come up from his eighth-place start and get the lead and second win. The racetrack will come back to life next week with another edition of Thursday Night Thunder with a special for the 9th State Cannabias Renegades. Gallery
