Bad Luck Turns Around For Jonathan Eilen
JEFFERSON, Wis. — Jonathan Eilen’s tough-luck early season took a turn for the better Saturday as he captured the ASA Midwest Tour Kwik Trip Stores 100 at Jefferson Speedway.
“Boy we really needed this,” said Eilen “We had our problems all day with the motor. We actually had the back up car out and ready to go and we thought for sure we would have to go to that one, but this car was like a rocket on rails.”
Eilen started on the outside of the front row and got the lead from polesitter Adam Hensel as the field beat the rain to the finish line. The race was interrupted by showers on lap 27.
Jamie Iverson took second place ahead of Andrew Morrisey in third. Dan Fredrickson and Blake Horstman completed the top five.
The finish:
Jonathan Eilen, Jamie Iverson, Andrew Morrisey, Dan Fredrickson, Blake Horstman, Mark Kraus, Nathan Haseleu, Travis Sauter, Doug Mahlik, Donny Reuvers, Tim Schendel, Adam Hensel, Rich Loch, Russ Blakeley, Chris Wimmer, Matt Kocourek, Bryan Roach, Kris Kelly, Nick Murgic, Jake Ryan, Kyle Calmes, Gordy Swanson, Brandon Hill, Dylan Schuyler, Steve Dobbratz, Frank Kreyer.
