Howe-Kellar Earns First Career Feature Win
In his first full year of racing, Tanner Hofer started on the pole in the IMCA Sport Compact feature. The veteran of Stan Thompson quickly took the lead from the rookie when the green flag waved. As Hofer fell through the pack, Andy Reed and Seth Howe-Kellar raced hard for second. Howe-Kellar grabbed the second position on lap two and started to reel in the leader of Thompson. With four laps to go, Howe-Kellar started to peek his car under Thompson for the lead while Reed lurked closely behind in third. Thompson and Howe-Kellar raced door to door with two laps to go. As they took the white flag, they continued to race side by side. But going into corners three and four, Thompson drove his race car too high into the corner, allowing Seth Howe-Kellar to complete the pass and win his first feature victory. Stan Thompson held off Andy Reed at the line to finish second while Ken Sandberg finished ahead of Craig Kastner for fourth.
