KODY SWANSON TAKES DuQUOIN’S “TED HORN 100”

 


DuQuoin, IL……..Kody Swanson of Kingsburg, Calif. took advantage of a relatively new USAC Silver Crown procedure and ended up winning the “Ted Horn 100” at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds Sunday night in his Toyota/Team Six-R Beast. The win was his first in series competition as he led the final 49 miles of the race after a mid-race stop. Swanson elected not to change the right-rear tire during the mid-race stoppage and was able to hold off Jon Stanbrough for the victory. Swanson's decision moved him from 11th to first for the lap 52 restart. Todd Kane, the only other driver who elected not to change the tire, finished third ahead of Shane Hmiel and Dave Darland. Jerry Coons Jr., who won the pole and led the first 51 laps, eventually fell to 15th in the final race standings. Series point leader Bud Kaeding emerged with a 36-point ead over Swanson after finishing 12th on Sunday night. The series now prepares for the “4-Crown Nationals” at the Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio September 24-25.
