Joel Callahan (40) takes the lead from Jeff Aikey (77) on lap 25.
What won the race: Ninth-starting Joel Callahan of Dubuque, Iowa, denied polesitter Jeff Aikey his second straight Deery Brothers Summer Series victory Thursday at Benton County Speedway. Callahan, who took the lead on lap 25, earned $2,000 for his sixth career tour victory.
Quotable: “It’s always good to win," Callahan said. "We had a good car and the cautions helped. It seemed like every caution I was able to gain a couple spots.”
Key notes: Callahan notched his previous tour victory since July 7, 2016, at Kossuth County Speedway in Algona, Iowa. ... Callahan was up to second when the last of four cautions waved on lap 18. ... Callahan also picked up the $250 Sunoco Race Fuels drawing. ... Series leader Justin Kay of Wheatland, Iowa, improved eight positions to finish eighth. ... Eric Pollard's fourth-place finish was his best in six career series starts. ... Benton County beat the rain to complete its fair race. .... The rain-plagued series completed just its third event of the season.
On the move: Tyler Bruening of Decorah, Iowa, started 15th and finished sixth.
Winner's sponsors: Callahan's Rocket is sponsored by Callahan Construction, Callahan Painting, Riverbend Retirement Community, Grand Haven Retirement Community and Dubuque Bank.
