GREENWOOD, NE (June 28) - Ryan Gustin showed the Late Model world that his domination in the Modified ranks is well deserved after the Marshalltown, Iowa native captured his first career Corn Belt Clash Series win at I-80 Speedway tonight in Greenwood, Nebraska.
Starting from the pole position, Gustin gave early chase to fellow Modified veteran and outside pole sitter Tommy Weeder, Jr. for the first 15 or so laps as the front cars entered heavy traffic and with 15 or so laps in the books, Gustin shot to the lead past Weeder and began to show is dominance.
Gustin looked to have things locked up as he had put over a straightaway on second place in heavy lapped traffic till the race’s only yellow flag fell with three laps to go bunching the field for one final dash for cash.
Gustin’s #19r Victory Circle mount shot out on the single file restart to take home the $3,700 pay day, his first win with the CBC series and also gathered himself a provisional starting position for July’s $27,000-to-win Silver Dollar Nationals at I-80. Following Gustin to the checkers was Weeder, Chris Simpson, Tony Jackson, Jr. and Chad Simpson.
The Corn Belt Clash Series makes the short trek down the road tomorrow to the Adams County Speedway in Corning, Iowa for a $5,000-to-win event on Saturday.
