Second straight second place finish Monday in Farley

Second straight second place finish Monday in Farley

Farley Speedway's event represents one of the most unpredictable fields on the entire Lucas Oil MLRA schedule. Monday's stop was no exception. Mason Zeigler rolled from the DirtonDirt.com pole and led early, prior to Jesse Stovall sliding him, in three and four.

From that point a fierce battle for the lead ensued between Stovall and Chris Simpson, until an oil leak forced Stovall from contention and off the track early. Simpson lead the rest of the way, but he was not without challenges as Ryan Gustin nearly caught him late in lapped traffic.

Once Simpson cleared Jay Johnson, whom he put a lap down, it was just a matter of clicking off the remaining laps. The win is Simpson's third of the year and largest in terms of purse money this season too.

Gustin had his work cut out for him after finishing fifth in his heat race.

"We'll take it starting 14th," commented Gustin of his move through the front half of the field, to the runner-up position. "Chris did a good job, he's been around this place a lot, so second to him here ain't bad. Hopefully we can get one here tomorrow."

It was the second straight runner-up finish for 'The Reaper' after finishing in the same spot at the Lucas Oil Speedway on Saturday night with the United States Modified Touring Series (USMTS).

Tuesday night the tour rolls on to the West Liberty Raceway on the Muscatine County Fairgrounds. It's the second of three Keith Simmons promoted tracks. $10,000 is once again up for grabs in another complete show.
