Jesse Williamson Scores Mohawk Metal IMCA Modified Feature Win At Cottage Grove
By Ben Deatherage
Cottage Grove, Oregon- The Mohawk Metal IMCA Modifieds would play the role of support class on Friday, May 18th, at Cottage Grove Speedway. The event would draw twenty-three entries from the states of Oregon and Washington.
Tony Bloom would show the way early on the opening lap. Unfortunately, the Eugene native would get sideways in the first set of turns. That would hand the top spot over to Stayton’s Grey Ferrando. Ferrando would cruise about the ¼-mile clay oval until lap nine when he would get caught up in an incident in turn two.
John Campos, of Keizer, would be the new leader. Campos retained the position for some time before Dustin Cady, from Albany, made a brief pass. Both drivers would get shuffled back by Jesse Williamson. Williamson, of Eugene, would make it past both drivers in one turn on lap sixteen. Williamson would keep his mount in front of the rest of the pack to win his first race of the season at CGS.
Dustin Cady would end his evening in second over third finishing Steven Sturdevant, of Springfield. John Campos was fourth while Nick Besstte, of Battle Ground, Washington, completed the top five in fifth. Heat races were won by Sturdevant, Cady, and Corbett’s Collen Winebarger.
Cottage Grove Speedway returns to racing on Saturday, May 19th. Classes in action include the Wingless Sprint Series, Late Models, Mohawk Metal IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Sport Mods, and the Quality RV Repair Hornets. For more information log on to www.cottagegrovespeedway.com.
