Clanton Banks $40,000 Belleville Prize

BELLEVILLE, Kan. — Shane Clanton banked $40,000 for winning Tuesday night’s XR Super Series late model feature at the Belleville High Banks.

Because of heat related concerns, officials elected to race on the quarter-mile dirt track instead of the legendary half-mile, high-banked track.

Clanton started third and took the lead from Monday night winner Jonathan Davenport as the duo raced through lapped traffic on the 10th circuit.

Despite a late challenge from series point leader and seventh-starter Chris Madden, Clanton led the remainder of the 40-lap event.

Madden finished second, with Davenport, Chris Ferguson and Gordy Gundaker rounding out the top five.

Jimmy Owens was the fast qualifier for the 24-car field with a lap of 13.312 seconds.

Kyle Berck won the Malvern Bank Super Late Model Series feature.

The finish:

Shane Clanton, Chris Madden, Jonathan Davneport, Chris Ferguson, Gordy Gundaker, Chase Junghans, Tad Pospisil, Scott Bloomquist, Blair Nothdurft, Jacob Magee, Kyle Strickler, Jimmy Owens, Andrew Kosiski, Dustin Walker, Adam Popp, Justin Bussell, Joe Gorby, Charlie McKenna, Al Humphrey, Dusty Leonard, Dan Smith, Delbert Smith, Hayden Ross, TeeJay Janousek.
