Kenny collects first IMCA win and $5,000 at Route 66 Southern SportMod special
AMARILLO, Texas (May 30) – Brandon Kenny couldn’t have picked a better night for his career first Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center Southern SportMod feature win. Kenny led every lap of Route 66 Motor Speedway’s topless special Saturday evening, earning $5,000 for his main event efforts. The win came in a Ramirez Race Car he and Modified driver Cole Traugott built in his hometown of Woodward, Okla. RRC teammate Mike Roach finished a straightaway off the pace, taking runner-up honors despite a broken right front shock. More than 70 Southern SportMods vied at Amarillo. “I knew we had a chance to run 1-2 because we’ve been running good so far this year,” said Kenny, who came into the night with five top-five finishes in as many IMCA starts at Longdale Speedway and Elk City Speedway. “I was ecstatic to win and when Mike pulled up alongside and held up one finger, then two fingers to tell me we ran 1-2, it made it even better.” Cody Smith, Randy Timms and Kelly Cross completed the top five finishers.
