BOONE, Iowa (Sept. 2) – Jake McBirnie raced to a rare achievement for a rookie driver Tuesday night, earning a front row start in an IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s main event.

Lining up behind him will be Jake Simpson, defending champion Carter VanDenBerg, Shawn Harker, Jared Van Deest, George Nordman, Alex Zwanziger and Brian Miller.

 

Miller had started 18th, Van Deest 24th. Doug Smith was disqualified from fifth after failing post-race suspension inspection.
Miller qualified for the fifth time, Van DenBerg for the second. Simpson, Harker, VanDeest, Nord­man and Zwanziger join McBirnie as first-time qualifiers.

 

Last-chance qualifying on Wednesday will complete the main event starting field of 30.
