DAVENPORT, Iowa — The final night of Davenport Dirt Stars gave racers one last shot at victory lane before drawing the season to a close at Davenport Speedway.
The big money was in the Outhouse and Storage to Go Container Rentals IMCA Late Model division, where the payoff was $3,000-to-win.
When the checkered flag flew Jeremiah Hurst was the name on the winner’s check.
