NickHolt Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 With finish line in sight, rain forces final King of America qualifier to Saturday HUMBOLDT, Kan. (March 24) -- After 21 races and 210 laps of racing Friday, the rain that had held off all evening finally fell on the Humboldt Speedway and forced the postponement of the final 10-lap qualifying heat at King of America VII Modified Nationals presented by Summit Racing until Saturday. The skies opened up just as the fifth and final heat race of Round #3 qualifying took the green flag. It was nearly disastrous as the cars slid up the track in the corner, but all were able to keep their machines under control and return to their pit stalls. Prior to Mother Nature's unwelcomed visit, Round #1 heat race winners were Dereck Ramirez, Jake Timm, Ryan Gustin, Zack VanderBeek and Keith Tourville. Round #2 heat race winners were Don Eischens, Jordan Grabouski, Rodney Sanders, Mitch Keeter and Lucas Schott. The four heat races completed in Round #3 were won by Sanders, Cade Dillard, Johnny Scott and Timm. The final Round #3 qualifying heat will take place prior to the start of Saturday's scheduled program of last-chance races and main events that will culminate with the $10,000-to-win, $1,000-to-start, 70-lap championship feature. The Iron Man Challenge featuring Out-Pace USRA B-Mods will also complete their rain-delayed $1,500-to-win main event on Saturday before embarking on a complete show of heat races, "B" Mains and $1,000-to-win "A" Main. Following the completion of the postponed heat race for the USMTS Modifieds, passing points from the three heat races will be tabulated with the top 12 drivers earning the first 12 starting spot in Saturday's "A" Main. The balance of the main event field will come from the top finishers in the "B" Main and a provisional starter from the pool of early entries. Racing is slated to start at 6:30 p.m. Spectator tickets are $25, kids ages 6-12 get in for $10 and children ages 5 and under are admitted free of charge.
