Kay doubles down Friday at Farley

By Jerry Mackey FARLEY, Iowa (July 7) – A big crowd turned out Friday as Farley Speedway hosted Driver/Fan Appreciation night. Justin Kay scored his third clean sweep of the season at the Farley Speedway Promotions tracks by winning both the Out-Pace Racing Products IMCA Late Model Feature and the GSI Collision Specialists IMCA Modified main event. Kay overtook early leader Nick Marolf and set sail to score an impressive 25-lap Late Model fea­ture win. Kay raced with Tyler Bruening for much of the main event before opening a late ad­vantage of approximately 10 car lengths. Bruening took second ahead of Dan Shelliam. Kay’s win in the Modified feature was certainly not easy as he was challenged throughout the 20-lap feature. Kay passed early leader Mitch Manternach on lap eight and then had to fight off the late-race challenges of Mark Schulte to score the win. Troy Bauer was the class of the GSI Collision Specialists IMCA Northern SportMod field. Bauer had the field brought to his rear bumper following a late caution. The restart [Read More]
