Justin Kay (15k) inherited Marshalltown's victory for his third on the tour.
What won the race: Two-time series champ Justin Kay of Wheatland, Iowa, inherited Tuesday's Deery Brothers Summer Series victory at Marshalltown Speedway when flagged winner Jeremiah Hurst was disqualified for using an illegal axle tube. Kay collected $2,000 for his third tour victory of the season.
Key notes: Kay has 22 career series victories, tied for fifth on the all-time tour list with Gary Webb. ... Jake Neal of Omaha, Neb., led the first 25 laps before Hurst made the pass for the lead on lap 26. ... The race was slowed by two cautions, one on lap 46 and one on lap 48. ... Hurst, in the No. 58 Roberts Motorsports ride formerly fielded by Ray Guss Jr., was looking for his second straight victory after winning Dubuque Speedway's $2,000 Tri-Track Challenge event on Sunday. ... Marshalltown's midweek event was the track's only series race this season. ... Through eight 2017 events, Kay remains the tour's lone multi-race winner.
