All Star Sprint Race Results - Brownstown (IN) Speedway - Wed 6/2/99 By Scott Hall

BROWNSTOWN, IN - Kelly Kinser captured his second All Star sprint car win of the season Wednesday night in the 40-lap feature at Brownstown Speedway. Kinser, aboard the familiar Kinser Timber No. 4K, started third and took over the lead from Joey Saldana on lap five to lead the rest of the 10-mile run. Kinser’s Gaerte-Chevrolet powered Stealth was riding aboard McCreary tires. The event marked the return to Brownstown by the All Stars for the first time since September, 1997 when Jeff Shepard visited victory lane here. KSE Racing Products Rookie of the Year contender Brian Ellenberger started on the ButlerBuilt Motorsports Equipment Hot Seat pole position with Saldana alongside in the Steve Mox-owned Stealth. Ellenberger spun his Top Gun Racing machine in turn two on the initial start, but luckily the whole field missed the spinning number 20. Saldana took the lead on the next attempt at a start on the beautifully prepared fairgrounds oval, leading the first four laps, with Kinser on his tail, until Kinser moved by to lead lap five. Meanwhile, the best racing of the event was for the fifth through seventh spot where Danny Smith and Kenny and Dean Jacobs swapped those places many times, with all three using every inch of the quarter mile surface, running two and three wide for most of the race. As Kinser led, Mark Keegan, who started third in Chuck Steinbrick’s J&J, was trailing in second, just ahead of Saldana. On a late race restart, Saldana got by Keegan for the runner-up spot and made a charge at Kinser, but Kinser was able to hold off Saldana at the checkered. Back in the pack, Kasey Kahne was putting on the best passing performance of the night. Kahne started 14th and charged past Dean and Kenny Jacobs in the closing laps to record fourth at the finish behind Kinser, Saldana and Keegan. Dean Jacobs held on for fifth in the Junior Holbrook Eagle, with Smith sixth in Denny Ashworth’s Schnee. All Star points leader Kenny Jacobs finished seventh, earning the "Team Simpson Racing Lucky Seven" award in the Jacobs Motorsports Kriner-powered Eagle. Californian Brad Furr started 16th and ended up eighth with Rodney Duncan ninth in the Harrison Trucking machine. Jerrod Hull started 15th and had worked his way up to fifth by the midway point of the race. Following a mid-race restart, his tires sealed over, relegating him to tenth at the finish.

The United Expressline heat fell to Dean Jacobs, the Southwest Expressline heat to Furr, the Southwest Glass heat was won by Greg Wilson and the Commercial Truck & Trailer Dash fell to Mark Keegan. Paul McMahan was the Red Devil Brakes fast qualifier with a new track record of 12.454 seconds. Time Trials: 1. Paul McMahan, Johnson U2 12.454, NTR; 2. Danny Smith, Ashworth 92, 12.511; 3.
