QUERY AND FOUST SCORE CONCORD WINS
CONCORD, N.C. (July 11, 2005) - Freddie Query of Mooresville and
Charlotte's Bo Foust earned victories Saturday night on News Channel 14 Night at the
Races at Concord Motorsport Park. For Query, it was his second-consecutive
Future Cellular Big-10 Series super late model win while Foust snared his first
NASCAR Coca Cola late model stock triumph of the season.
Other winners were: Kenneth Cook of Concord in the 35-lap Tommy Johnson's
Motorsports Warehouse limited late model feature; Kyle Beattie of Concord in
the 35-lap INEX thunder roadster feature; and Steve Irvin, also of Concord, in
the 20-lap Speedway Plumbing pure stock feature.
Point leader Dennis Schoenfeld started second in the 125-lap super late
model feature and set the pace at the drop of the green. Query, who started
third, quickly took chase and secured the top spot on lap 23.
While Query was strong, he did dodge one near disaster when the car of
Heath Hindman of Signal Mountain, Tenn. broke directly in front of him going
through the dog-leg - the fastest part of the track. Query swerved and avoided
what would have been a violent collision.
Query rolled to his 85th career-victory at the speedway, more than any
other driver. Schoenfeld held on to the second spot with Dave Mader III of
Mooresville third. Jeremy Pate of Pensacola, Fla. was fourth and Preston Peltier of
Concord rallied from the last starting spot to finish fifth.
Shaun Mangum of Monroe jumped from the second-starting spot to the early
lead in the 50-lap late model stock feature. His lead was short-lived as a
broken rocker arm stud gave the top spot to point leader Travis Sharpe of
Swansea, S.C.
Foust started fifth and soon was challenging Sharpe for the win. On lap
25 Foust moved inside exiting the final corner, the cars touched with Sharpe
spinning out of control. That gave the top spot to Foust who scored his
second-career win at the track.
Rookie John Freeman of Huntersville finished second with Linny White of
Colton, Calif. matching his best finish with a third. Justin Hill of Concord
and Bryan "Dude" Thomas of Monroe completed the top five.
Wayne Callahan of Monroe took the early lead in the limited late model
feature before yielding the top spot to Jay Payne of Thomasville. Payne led
until lap 18 when contact with a lapped car sent him crashing into the wall and
out of the event.
Cook assumed command of the race and raced to his first of the season and
14th career Concord Motorsport Park victory. Reggie Carroll of Concord
finished second with Jimmy Voyles of China Grove third. Brian Pedrick of Denver was
fourth and Jeff Melton of Monroe fifth.
Beattie started third in the thunder roadster feature and wasted little
time getting to the front. He cruised to his third win of the season and
extended his point lead. Drew Calhoun of Southern Pines was second and D.J. Krentz
of Huntersville third. David Sugg of Cornelius and Jim Fluharty of Concord
rounded out the top five.
Allmon started on the pole and led every lap of the pure stock feature
racing to his fourth win of the season. Chad Allmon of Mt. Pleasant was second
with Bobby Measmer Jr. of Concord third. Brian Love of Mt. Pleasant finished
fourth with Steve Ackerly of Monroe fifth.
Racing resumes Saturday night when it will be Mecklenburg County night at
the race track. All residents of Mecklenburg County will be admitted free
with proper identification.
On the track, the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series will take center-stage
headlined by a 100-lap late model stock feature.
Concord Motorsport Park is located on highway 601 south of Concord and
