Something about Farley Speedway brings out the best in Joel Calla­han.

Callahan won his third straight Deery Brothers Summer Series feature at Farley on Friday, April 17, 2015, earn­ing $3,000. He’d also topped IMCA Late Model tour events there each of the last two Septem­bers.

Jeff Aikey started outside Callahan on the front row and led the first 22 of 50 laps. The field was under yellow and ready to resume racing when Aikey pulled into infield with a flat tire.

That put Callahan on point and he stayed in front as the last 28 laps ran caution-free.

Tyler Droste and defending series champion Justin Kay both avoided becoming part of the attri­tion and advanced 15 positions to second and third, respectively.

Point leader Andy Nezworski was a plus eight positions to fourth and hard charger Tyler Bruening ad­vanced 17 spots to fifth. Matt Ryan started 17th and ended in sixth.

Colby Springsteen was running in the top five when he brought out the first yellow of the night with a lap 17 flat. Curt Martin was in second when he broke on the 20th circuit.

Winner of the $250 Sunoco Race Fuels feature qualifier drawing was Corey Zeitner.

The second $3,000 to win Deery event of the weekend is Saturday, April 18 at Hamilton County Speedway in Webster City.

Pit gates open at 4:30 p.m. and the grandstand opens at 5:30 p.m. Hot laps are at 6:30 p.m. with racing to follow.

Kelly Shryock took the $1,000 IMCA Xtreme Motor Sports Modified checkers at Farley. He was already on the ballot for the Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational.
