Ursetta’s Patience Pays Off for 2nd Win of 2019

(06-15-2019, Dacono CO) It was the AutoNation Drive Pink NASCAR Knockout and a couple short rain showers in Dacono couldn’t slow down the action on the track as Arvada’s Dominic Ursetta claimed his 2nd Mountain States Fire Protection Super Late Model feature win of the season. Darrell J Stewart won his 2nd straight Elite V Twin Legend car feature and Justin Karroll claimed his 3rd Lincoln Tech Pure Stock main event.


SUNDAY 06-16-2019

On Sunday it was the annual Father’s Day Super Sunday Monster Truck Show and the stands at Colorado National Speedway were absolutely packed to watch some amazing Monster Truck action.

Mountain States Fire Protection Super Late Models

The Super Late Model division has not put in a lot of laps on the new pavement at CNS but one driver that seems to feel comfortable on the new surface is young Brett Yackey who dominated the fast dash and jumped out to a large early lead in the feature event. Cheyenne’s Michael Scott held second spot until both #11 Darren Robertson and #6 Dominic Ursetta muscled their way into 2nd and 3rd. Robertson began to gain on Yackey and Ursetta rode a car length behind the 11.

Robertson had no issue passing the leader but Ursetta was comfortable staying in 3rd for the time being. Eventually the 6 took over 2nd place just at the right time as the leader got loose in turn 2 and almost spun. Ursetta pouncede on the opportunity and took over the lead. In the next corner things went form bad to worse for Darren as he and a lapped car made contact in turn 4 and the 11 car spun bringing out the caution.

While Darren was allowed to get his spot back he had to go to the pits for quick repairs which by rule sent him to the back of the field in the restart.

With Robertson out of the picture Ursetta cruised to his 2nd feature win of the season. Brett Yackey held off a late charge from #58 of Kyle Ray to take 2nd place. Behind Ray, Michael Scott took home 4th and Robertson came from the back to salvage a top 5 finish.

Lincoln Tech Pure Stocks

The Lincoln Tech Pure Stock main event featured an exciting 4 car battle for the lead between #82 Justin Karrol, #7 David Robinson, 99JR Ryan Raley Jr and 21w Jamie Ward. These 4 drivers rumbled through lapped traffic battling for the win for the majority of the race. Late in the race Ward and Raley made contact in turn 2 and Raley got sideways. Incredibly Raley was able to hang-on and not spin but this did allow Karroll to build a lead on the field.

By the time the white flag flew Raley had reeled in Karroll but it was too little too late and Justin cruised to his 3rd feature win of the season.

Elite V Twin Legend Cars

Before the start of the races CNS honored Danny Medina for winning an amazing 150 feature events in his Legends career which is an incredible accomplishment. Danny was determined to make it 151 as he had won the fast dash and jumped out to an early lead in the feature event.

Medina was joined up front by #66 Kyle Clegg, #30 Darrell J Stewart and #25 Adam Pechman. The top 4 cars ran nose to tail through lapped traffic for several laps. With just 14 laps to go Stewart and Clegg made contact in turn 2 which caused Clegg to spin and bring out the caution. It was a bad break for Clegg as he was sent to the back of the field on the restart.

With Clegg racing from the back of the pack it left Medina and Stewart to battle for the win and battle they did. Both drivers took turns leading the race sometimes swapping spots two times in a single lap!

At the end of the race Stewart and Medina approached 2-wide lapped traffic coming out of turn 4. Medina went low and Stewart went high creating a 4-wide situation. While the crowd held their collective breath Medina came out in front. But Stewart still had an ace up his sleeve wiggling his way around Medina on the final lap by just a nose to take the dramatic win. Close behind Medina #21 Ryan Jones took 3rd place. #16 Travis Roe from Thornton was 4th and #03 Darrell Stewart from Arvada took 5th. Clegg salvaged a 10th place finish and has given up the season point lead to Medina and Stewart.
