Odeneal claims Duck win

Tuesday, June 23, 2009

A beautiful, hot Saturday night greeted competitors and fans alike at Duck River Speedway. The crowds have increased week after week as the action on the track has picked up.

Shelbyville's Matt Odeneal grabbed two different pole positions, taking the fast time in both the Super Late Model and Two-Barrel Late Model divisions.

Odeneal was able to hold on to his top spot in the Two-Barrel feature, leading all 20 laps, to outrun Josh Lawwell to the line. Joel Landers was impressive with a third-place finish. Mark Haddon and DeWayne Waid rounded out the top five.

The Super Late Model feature was a side-by-side battle between Shelbyville's Scott Cook and Wheel's David Gentry. Lap after lap the two dueled, with Cook on the high side and Gentry uncharacteristically stuck on the bottom side. A few laps from the end, Gentry finally got by Cook as Cook's car slid high in turn four. That's the way it ended, with Gentry pulling away at the finish. Jeff Walker got by Cook for second. Tyler Landers was fourth, with Corey Posey fifth.

Other winners included David Seibers in the Outlaw Ponies, and Clint Carter winning another Super Stock feature. The Open Wheel win went to Mark Haddon, with Alan Carter taking the checkers in the Pure Pony division. Ben Calahan won the Rookie Pony feature.
