Gustin wins King of America VII at Humboldt

Gustin wins King of America VII at Humboldt

By USMTS PR (Humboldt, KS) -- Five days shy of his first King of America victory in 2013, Ryan Gustin became the first two-time winner of the King of America VII Modified Nationals presented by Summit Racing after a jaw-dropping performance Saturday night at the Humboldt Speedway.

In tallying his 80th career USMTS triumph, the 26-year-old legend-in-the-making from Marshalltown, Iowa, pocketed a $10,000 paycheck, a new Fast Shafts carbon fiber drive shaft and multiple contingency awards for his efforts.

"They don't get no better than a Hughes car, that's for sure," Gustin said of his No. 19r Hughes Racing Chassis. "They are the best there is, and I can't thank Jason (Hughes), Steve (Karver, crew chief) and all the guys back at the shop enough. They're the ones that make this thing happen."

Gustin's first King of America win in 2013 also came behind the wheel of a Hughes mount owned by Gressel Racing. This time Gustin shared the victory with his car's builder, owner and teammate.

Taking the green flag from the outside of the front row next to Terry Phillips, Gustin snagged the lead at the start and held off Phillips for the first eight laps before 2014 race winner Rodney Sanders blasted into the lead on lap nine using the low side of the corners.

'The Rocket' set a torrid pace from there, but 'The Reaper' was able to reel Sanders back in as the lead duo danced through lapped traffic with Gustin regaining the top spot on lap 29.

"He was setting a much faster pace than I was comfortable with in this long of a race," Gustin noted. "I figured he's come back to us, and that's what happened."

Not long thereafter, Cade Dillard began to narrow the gap between himself and Gustin, eventually pulling alongside on several occasions the pair executed some incredible moves in thick lapped traffic.

Eventually, defending USRA Modified national champion Lucas Schott made it a three-car affair, but the race's first and only caution on lap 53 slowed the pace and gave the fans a chance to collect their breath.

While Dillard remained within striking distance over the final 17 circuits, Gustin offered him zero mistakes to pounce on.

"I saw Cade down there a few times, and I think he was wanting to snooker me down to the bottom but I wasn't having any of that," quipped Gustin. "About 75 percent of the race we ran the car about 75 percent of what she had in her. We never had to go 100 percent, so I felt pretty comfortable there."

Gustin crossed the finish line about three car-lengths ahead of Dillard while Johnny Scott nipped Schott for third after he lost a driveshaft in the final corner. Jason Hughes, who started the 70-lapper outside of Schott in the sixth row, came home fifth.

The 2012 event winner, Stormy Scott, was a passing machine all night long. After endless struggles in qualifying on Friday, he passed 24 cars in three qualifying features Saturday, and then passed another 10 in the "A" Main to earn the KSE Racing Products Hard Charger Award and a new steering wheel from Superior Steering Wheels.

Sanders slipped to seventh at the finish with the rest of the top 10 finishing positions going to Dereck Ramirez, Phillips and Kent Arment, who also climbed the "alphabet soup" ladder out of a Last Chance Race.

With 18 shows already in the books in 2017, the tireless USMTS touring titans will be off duty for the next 26 days. The engines fire back up on Thursday, April 20, for a return trip to the Atchison County Raceway in Atchison, Kan., for the 2nd Annual Cage Match.
