Henderson, Prouty and Lambertz Triumphant at Huset's Speedway

 

Inside Line Promotions - BRANDON, S.D. (May 16, 2021) - Justin Henderson, Billy Prouty and John Lambertz were victorious on Sunday night at Huset's Speedway.

Henderson was hungry to avenge misfortune that cost him a shot to capture the Casey's 410 Sprint Cars presented by Big Frig season opener one week ago and it showed on Sunday when the Northern Outlaw Sprint Association invaded the oval.


Following a red flag - the first of three red flags and five total cautions during the 25-lap feature - on the start of the main event, eighth-starting Henderson hustled to second on the opening lap before he powered around Carson McCarl for the top spot in turns one and two on Lap 2.

Cautions played into Henderson's favor during the first NOSA race at Huset's Speedway since May 2011 as he was given a clean track while facing heavy traffic on Lap 7, Lap 12 and Lap 17. The final caution - on Lap 18 - set up an eight-lap race to the finish and traffic only slowed Henderson a bit in the final circuit as he earned his first triumph of the season by 0.942 of a second.

"I'm so out of breath from celebrating it if you can believe that," he noted during the Victory Lane interview that followed a couple of shouts and arm pumps. "Last week was a bit of a mishap. Things happen in racing. We redeemed ourselves tonight."

McCarl finished second with Cody Ledger placing third. Jack Dover garnered the Hard Charger Award after maneuvering from 23rd to fourth and Jody Rosenboom rounded out the top five.

Skylar Prochaska and Jack Croaker set quick time during their qualifying groups before McCarl, Wade Nygaard, Austin Pierce and Ledger picked up heat race victories. Brant O'Banion was the B Main winner.


Prouty won the Nordstrom's Automotive Late Model Street Stocks A Main in a photo finish for his first-ever triumph at Huset's Speedway. Prouty held a comfortable lead for most of the 15-lap race until traffic in the waning laps allowed Colby Klaassen to make a bid for the victory.

Klaassen shaved approximately three quarters of a second off Prouty's advantage to pull within a half second coming to the white flag. The difference tightened through turns one and two with Prouty diving low entering turn three. Klaassen committed to the high lane as a driver being lapped was in the middle. Klaassen briefly put the nose of his race car in front as the drivers entered turn four, but Prouty's momentum on the bottom lane was enough to win by 0.021 of a second.

"Great, great race," Prouty beamed in Victory Lane. "I love this place. We've had good runs here, but never sealed the deal. Now we've done it."

Tim Dann was third with Matt Steuerwald fourth and Cory Yeigh fifth.

Zach Olivier and JJ Zebell each won a heat race.


Lambertz survived a couple of early restarts and traffic in the final laps to lead the distance of the Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Car Series 20-lap feature.

"The track was pretty quick on the bottom and kinda played into my favor," he said. "I'm pretty tired. It's still early in the season to be in racing shape."

Jansen posted a second-place showing with Micah Slendy third, 12 th-starting Mike Moore fourth and Shane Fick fifth.

Brandon Bosma, Lambertz and Jansen were the heat race winners.

Huset's Speedway hosts Growmark FS Night featuring Casey's 410 Sprint Cars presented by Big Frig, the Nordstrom's Automotive Late Model Street Stocks and the Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Car Series next Sunday.
