BRANDON, S.D. (7-31-11) By Brian Liskai- Different car, same results for Terry "TMAC" McCarl Sunday at Huset's Speedway. McCarl, Huset's all-time winningest driver, passed Tim Shaffer and Cap Henry with a lap and a half to go to score the All Star Circuit of Champions victory Sunday.
McCarl jumped into a familiar #24 but different car - he has been piloting the TK Concrete #55 most of the season - and took the machine to victory lane.
"I was kind of trying to move around and I saw Cap up top and Shaffer kept hanging around the bottom and I just made a move. These guys gave me a great race car. They talked me into driving this late today...we kind of just threw stuff together...everything just clicked," said McCarl of his 15th career All Star win aboard Lynton Jeffrey's back-up car.
It was McCarl's second win of the season at Huset's and the 87th of his career (first all-time) at the track.
Cap Henry, the 2010 All Star Rookie of the Year, would grab the early lead in his Lucas Oil/FK Rod Ends/Stanton Mopar #04, with Huset's point leader and four time feature winner Mark Dobmeier right on his rear bumper. Two-time and defending All Star champ Tim Shaffer would drive from his fifth place starting spot around McCarl on lap two to grab third. Disaster would strike for Dobmeier on lap 11 when he made contact with the wall, moving Shaffer to second with McCarl and three-time All Star champ Dale Blaney in pursuit.
By the half-way mark, Henry had the big crowd on their feet as he tagged the turn two wall lap after lap, but maintained the lead as traffic came into play. Shaffer would drive by Henry exiting turn two on lap 18, but the Bellevue, Ohio native fought back as they sliced and diced their way through traffic. With 10 laps to go Henry and Shaffer were side by side. Shaffer would lead lap 26, but Henry would rocket around the outside to grab the lead back.
While Henry and Shaffer were slugging it out, McCarl would close quickly. As the trio raced out of turn two on their way to the white flag, McCarl would execute a daring bottom run exiting turn two sling shot past both Henry and Shaffer to grab the lead. McCarl would go on to take the win over Henry, Shaffer, Blaney and Kings Royal winner Tyler Walker.
"With about three to go I had killed the right rear tire...it took rubber around the top. I was just trying to ride around and hang on till the finish. Terry must be a lot better than me at saving his tires," said Henry of his fourth career runner-up finish with the All Stars. "I love this track...we always run good here."
