Chisholm Wins
24th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree
SPRING VALLEY, Minn.
(Sept. 24) —
Fittingly, the 24th Annual Featherlite Fall
Jamboree ended Saturday with Jim Chisholm’s car No. 24
sitting in victory lane at the Deer Creek Speedway in
Spring Valley, Minn.
Headlined by the Summit
USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt,
Sybesma Graphics Pole Award winner Shane DeVolder led
the field into the first corner when the green flag
waved, but Brandon Davis—the winningest driver in the
history of the Deer Creek Speedway with 70 career wins
across multiple divisions—took control in the next set
of turns to lead the opening lap.
Davis was in
control from that point while Rodney Sanders passed
DeVolder and climbed into the fifth position on the
ninth lap after starting 14th. Meanwhile, great battles
throughout the field kept the fans on the edge of their
seats.
Davis caught the back of the field while
Phillips and Chisholm raced side by side for second. As
Davis struggled to put Tyler Kaeter a lap down, Chisholm
pulled away from Phillips and snuck underneath Davis as
they completed lap 26.
The pair finally got by
but the back-markers, but contact between Kaeter and
Ryan Wetzstein sent Kaeter into the outside concrete
wall in turn two.
Unable to avoid the stopped
car, Phillips slammed into the side of Kaeter but was
able to continue after the caution period.
At the
halfway point of the 50-lapper, Davis led Chisholm with
Phillips, Sanders and Joe Duvall in tow.
Chisholm
inched ahead and into the lead on lap 28, and then began
to drive away from Davis and the rest of the field.
While he sailed away, Davis and Sanders had a great
battle for second while Phillips, Duvall and Dustin
Sorensen were in a thrilling battle for the next three
spots.
Everything came to a halt on lap 43 when
the yellow flag waved for a third time, but it was a
flag of false hope for anybody with plans on passing
Chisholm.
The 19-year-old from Osage, Iowa,
cruised the rest of the way to score his third USMTS
victory in his rookie season. He also won here over
Labor Day Weekend in the 17th Annual J&S JCB Fastrac 40
and picked up his initial win earlier this year in Mason
City, Iowa.
Along with $12,000 for winning
Saturday’s Featherlite Fall Jamboree feature, Chisholm’s
three wins this season have earned him $27,000.
After 48 victories in three seasons and back-to-back
USRA B-Mod National Championships, Chisholm’s move to
the full-blown outlaw-style Modifieds has seemed more
like a lateral move then a step up in competition.
Prior to this year, he had swept all three nights of
the USRA B-Mod action here at the Featherlite Fall
Jamboree. This weekend, his younger brother, Joe
continued that family tradition in his march toward a
USRA B-Mod national title.
Davis held off Sanders
to claim the runner-up paycheck while Thursday’s winner,
Lucas Schott, held off USMTS points leader Dustin
Sorensen for fourth.
‘Big Daddy’ Joe Duvall was
strong again at ‘The Creek’ and went home with
sixth-place honors while Phillips, Zack VanderBeek,
Darron Fuqua and Carlos Ahumada Jr. rounded out the top
10.
Defending USMTS National Champion Dereck
Ramirez started 28 and finished 13, which earned him
$100 as the FK Rod Ends Hard Charger Award winner while
Bob Timm, his family and the staff of the Mississippi
Thunder Speedway in Fountain City, Wis., put up an
additional $500 for the race’s hard charger.
Crapser collects Non-Qualifiers Race checkers:
Ryan Wiome led most of the race, but late-race lapped
traffic rewarded a patient Cory Crapser as the veteran
racer from Chippewa Falls, Wis., won the annual
Non-Qualifiers Race.
Featuring the next 30
drivers who failed to qualify for the 30-car main event,
the race paid $2,000 to win, plus a $500 bonus from
Stoen Racing Engines to the race’s hard charger. That
money was split between Colton Horner and three-time
Non-Qualifiers Race winner Steve Wetzstein.
The
25th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree is slated for
Sept. 21-23, 2023, during the 25th Anniversary Season
for the USMTS.
Cory Crapser won the Stoen
racing Engines Non-qualifiers Race.
Modster Mash weekend set for
Oct. 27-29:
One final weekend of racing remains before we crown the
2022 USMTS National Champion during the Modster Mash
which takes place over Halloween Weekend.
Action
kicks off Thursday, Oct. 27, with the inaugural King of
The Ring at the Tri-State Speedway in Pocola, Okla. On
Friday, Oct. 28, the Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City,
Kan., hosts the 8th Annual Kansas City Sizzler and the
season finale happens at the 81 Speedway in Park City,
Kan., with the 3rd Annual USMTS Modified Spook-Tacular
