Chisholm chalks up Arnold Motor Supply Iron Man Challenge win in Featherlite Fall Jamboree opener

September 19, 2019  |  by Jeff Nun
Jim Chisholm celebrates with family and crew members after winning the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod main event.

Jim Chisholm took the checkered flag Thursday night and then drove his Out-Pace USRA B-Mod into Deer Creek Speedway’s victory lane for the tenth time this season as the track kicked off the 21st Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree.

In doing something he’s done often this year, the 16-year-old also did something that few have been able to accomplish the past two seasons: beat Kris Jackson.

Both Chisholm and Jackson got a little help just five laps into the 20-lap main event when Dan Hovden and Parker Hale crashed hard on the front-stretch after Hovden attempted a slide job for the lead in turn four.

Luckily, no other cars were knocked out of the race despite 28 of them charging into the crash scene at top speed, but it did knock both Hovden and Hale from competition.

Jackson, who started seventh, was able to duck underneath the melee and Chisholm followed behind. After the green flag returned, it looked like Jackson might be on his way to another win on the road to his second straight Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series national title.

Chisholm, however, was able to keep pace with Jackson by cruising around the extreme high side of the high-banked 3/8-mile clay oval. Meanwhile, Arnold Motor Supply Iron Man Challenge points leader Jared Boumeester remained close behind in third.

With eight laps to go, Chisholm made the pass stick and assumed command just before the race’s final caution flag waved. From there he was able to hold off Jackson to collect the $1,000 top prize.

“I was kind of sitting in the back and I thought I wanted to go up but Parker (Hale) was running up top so I thought I should search around a little bit,� Chisholm said in victory lane. “When those two (Hovden and Hale) got together I seen that Jackson was running the bottom pretty dominant and I thought ‘Well, I might as well try where he’s not.’

“It’s just wonderful how well this team has come together and how many people come out here to support me. The track was again perfect with all the consequences we had to go through with the rain today and the past few weeks. It’s just amazing that they can put a track together like this in such notice.�

Ben Moudry worked his way past 17 cars in the 20-lapper to steal the third spot away from Boumeester on the final lap while 2010-2011 national champ Brandon Hare came home fifth.

Kadden Kath, 2013 Out-Pace USRA B-Mod national champion Troy Hovey, 22nd-starting Dakota Foster, Jake Timm and Cole Denner rounded out the top ten.

The 21st Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree continues Friday and Saturday, and race fans will witness a complete program as Out-Pace USRA B-Mods battle for $1,200 to win Friday and $1,500 to win on Saturday night, along with action from the USMTS Modifieds.
