64 IMCA Late Models were on hand to participate in the Deery Brothers Late Model Summer Series 50 lap season opener. Nate Beuseling in #46 was out front for most of the race until the hard charging Mark Burgtorf in the #7 reeled him in. The two exchanged leads battling side by side for several laps. Burgtorf was able to clear Beuseling with about 10 laps to go and raced off to the win.

Mark drove an amazing racing considering the left rear trailing arm bracket broke around lap 25 of the 100 lapper. At times you can see the left rear "dancing" around as only the swing arm on the front side of the rearend was holding everything in place. Apologies as the video is not the best as the videographer (Todd Nelson) was splitting his time between the camera and signaling Mark throughout the race.

Excerpts from the first feature win in 2009 and in the new Bob Pierce late model (second night on the car). Car was wicked fast that night thanks to the strong Kuntz and Company Ford motor and Mark's ultra smooth driving of the high side. Special thanks to Dustin Jarrett, Lucas Oil Late Model Series Internet Broadcaster, for posting the video - he was passing though central IL that evening and decided to take in the action at Quincy Raceways.
