HMP "Double Feature Night" recap and results, 6/7/2014

 

Houston, TX (June 9, 2014) - It was “Double Feature” night at the Houston Motorsports Park 3/8-mile concrete/asphalt oval, but there were no repeat winners in any of the four classes in completion – the NASCAR Fiesta Modifieds, the NASCAR BWFS Coke Trucks, the NASCAR American Muscle cars (AMCAR) or the Eco Stocks.

 

NASCAR Fiesta Modifieds

 

Defending NASCAR Fiesta Modified champion Joe Aramendia led for most of the “Fiesta Mart 40,” but a late-race spin after some contact with eventual race-winner Michael Kourkoubes relegated Aramendia to a twelfth-place finish.

 

Aramendia was fast early, but his low-slung modified picked up a push in the center of the turns as the laps clicked off allowing Kourkoubes, Zak Hausler and young Clayton Green the opportunity to go nose-to-tail for several laps before his spin.

 

Kourkoubes was able to fend off Hausler, Green, Jason Morman and Zach Knowles over the last six laps for the win.

 

“Fiesta Mart 40” (First feature)

1. 4 Michael Kourkoubes, 40
2. 05 Zak Hausler, 40
3. 1 Clayton Green, 40
4. 33 Jason Morman, 40
5. 51 Zach Knowles, 40
6. 03 Brandon Kelley, 40
7. 7 Brian Otts, 40
8. 88 Larry Hughes, 40
9. 2 Paul White, 40
10. 13 Ian Webster, 40
11. 28 Kevin Wiseman, 40
12. 79 Joe Aramendia, 40
13. 72 Johnny Walker, 24
14. 50 Brian Moczygemba, 24

 

In the second NASCAR Fiesta Modified feature, Zak Hausler cleared traffic halfway through and took off in his Raymond Delahoussaye-prepared ride, leaving first-feature winner Michael Kourkoubes and Joe Aramendia to battle for second, a quarter-lap behind Hausler at the checkered.

 

Although Aramendia had ample opportunity to repay Kourkoubes for the first feature spin, it never happened and Kourkoubes finished second ahead of Aramendia, Brian Moczygemba and Johnny Walker.

 

“The Worlds Supermarket 40” (Second feature)

1. 5 Zak Hausler, 40

NASCAR BWFS Coke Trucks

 

Charles Evans, Jr, made it look easy for the first caution-free 24 laps of the first NASCAR BWFS feature, the “Coca-Cola 30.” Evans outran the field and had built up a quarter-lap lead until a lap 24 caution put the result in doubt.

 

Evans was more than up to the task, however, and held off Jim Phillips on the restart and then Mason Mitchell over the last few laps to claim the win. Phillips finished a strong third and was followed by Kyle Books and David Webster at the checkered.

 

“Coca-Cola 30” (First feature)

13. 4 Chad Rogers, 29
14. 31 Chase Schubert, 29
15. 77 Cole Miller, 29
16. 15 Mark Lindley, 23
17. 68 Stephan McCurley, 7

 

David Webster, who started on the outside pole for the second feature, the “BWFS Industries 30,” out-gunned Sean Michael Steiner down the back straight for the lead and never looked back for all 30 caution-free laps.

 

Kyle Books and Mason Mitchell gave it all they had, but came up short at the end to finish second and third. Travis Benson and Jim Phillips rounded out the top five.

NASCAR American Muscle Cars (AMCAR)

 

David Webster - yes, the same David Webster who did so well in the second truck feature - has dominated this class for a couple of years, but his win streak came to an abrupt end when he exited with radiator damage after tangling with Dale Demski on the thirteenth lap.

 

Tommy Page, Jr., then held off Nathan Demski for the win.

3. 28 Dale Demski, 20
4. 53 Roger Hellman, 20
5. 87 Randall Page, 20
6. 31 David Webster, 13

 

With arch-rival David Webster unable to make the lineup, Nathan Demski sailed off to victory circle with his father, Dale Demksi, finishing second ahead of Tommy Page, Jr.
