Daly Double in Mr. Excitement 40 at CSP

PEORIA, Ariz. (September 19, 2015) – It was the culmination of the Daly Double in Canyon Speedway Park’s Mr. Excitement 40 Tribute to Terry Belcher finale on Saturday night as Watsonville, California’s Clay Daly finished off a sweep of the two-night West Coast Late Model card atop the 1/3-mile clay oval.

While Daly doubled up in Late Model action, Jason Noll matched the feat with a second IMCA Modified win in as many nights with other Saturday night winners including Matt Martinez in Pure Stocks, Mark Kilian in Pure Stocks and Austin Kuehl in Mod Lites.

Clay Daly raced from the front row outside to complete a sweep of the West Coast Late Model portion of the Terry Belcher Tribute weekend, taking the checkered flag ahead of Tony Toste with Joey Moriarty, Lonnie Parker, Jr., and Brad Williams among the top five.

After racing from 13th to take 9th World Vapor IMCA Modified honors on Friday night, Jason Noll charged from 12th on Saturday to complete a sweep of the weekend.  Noll crossed the stripe ahead of Joey Moriarty, who was on the podium twice during the night, with pole starter Jay Foster and seventh-row starters Brian Schultz and Nick O’Nell rounding out the top five.

Current Arizona Differential Pure Stock points leader Matt Martinez raced forward from the eighth starting position to capture his ninth win of the 2015 season at CSP ahead of Chris McCurdy, Jr., and Jeff Carter while Mark Kilian capitalized on the pole starting position to capture his first Scottsdale Muffler & Automotive Renegade feature win of the year ahead of Joe Peterson and Chuck Thornton.

Matching Daly and Noll with the weekend double, Austin Kuehl advanced from tenth to win the AMA Mod Lite feature event ahead of Tyler Merrill and Hayden Bender.

Action continues at Canyon Speedway Park next Saturday night, September 26, with the “Brawl for it All” featuring the USAC Southwest vs. USAC West Coast Sprint Cars along with 9th World Vapor IMCA Modifieds, Arizona Differential Pure Stocks, Micro Sprints and Dwarf Cars.
