JACKSON, Minn. (July 15, 2022) – Chase Randall and Jody Rosenboom both captured feature victories on Friday evening at Jackson Motorplex, which hosted Bank Midwest Night presented by Best Western of Fairmont.
The Midwest Sprint Touring Series and Midwest Power Series feature got off to a rough start with back-to-back red flags on the opening lap of the 25-lap main event. Once racing got rolling Jake Bubak led the first eight laps before a caution bunched the field together. Randall took advantage and used the bottom of turns three and four to take the lead on Lap 9.
As Randall built a sizeable lead, Kaleb Johnson advanced to third place on Lap 11 and into the runner-up position on Lap 13. The final caution of the race came out on the ensuing lap and after Randall executed a strong restart traffic appeared with seven laps remaining.
Johnson was able to close quickly, but Randall split two drivers to build his lead back to one second. A pair of drivers appeared in front of Randall on the final lap, allowing Johnson to make a last-ditch effort, but Randall was patient on the bottom groove in turns three and four to win by 0.575 seconds.
“We were really good out front,” he said after earning his first career win at the track. “Those first few laps I had to figure out where I needed to be to be faster than the guy in front of me. I found the bottom in (turns) three and four worked pretty well. I kept trying it and trying it and worked it in. I finally got by Jake on that restart and checked out from there.”
Johnson scored a second-place result.
“I feel like the last race we raced here I was in his position and made a few mistakes,” he said. “Chase ran a good race.”
Matt Juhl advanced from eighth to third.
“We had a good car all night,” he said. “The way the track played out and traffic didn’t go in my favor at all, I’m happy to be in third.”
Justin Henderson rebounded from being involved in a pair of cautions to finish fourth and Christopher Thram ended fifth.
Johnson set quick time during qualifying before the heat races were won by Scotty Thiel, Randall, Brandon Halverson and Skylar Prochaska. Mark Toews picked up the B Main triumph.
Rosenboom led the final 16 laps to claim his second Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Cars main event victory at the track this year.
Matt Johnson held the point for the first four laps before Rosenboom powered into the top spot via the cushion in turns three and four. He then held off Trevor Serbus during a pair of late-race restarts to win by 0.993 seconds, garnering a trip into Sea Foam Victory Lane. Rosenboom has now won two of the three Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Cars features at Jackson Motorplex this season.
Serbus placed second with Johnson rounding out the podium. Dusty Ballenger finished fourth and Monty Ferriera held off Brandon Bosma, who tipped over on Lap 3 and had to restart at the back of the pack, for fifth place.
Rosenboom, Jeremy Schultz and Mike Stien were the heat race winners. Cody Ihlen captured the B Main.
The next event at Jackson Motorplex is July 26 for the final Bank Midwest IMCA Series race of the season. The racing program features IMCA modifieds, IMCA stock cars, IMCA sport mods, IMCA hobby stocks and IMCA sport compacts.
