Henderson, CO. - The first appearance at the Belleville High Banks
revealed little in the way of future results for Kelly Boen. Despite
bringing both a modified (which he had won 2 NCRA features with) and a
late model, his 1999 debut did not yield a single top five finish. But,
in 2000, that ALL changed.
The "Henderson Hotshoe" dropped in for
the July 2nd NCRA late model show in Belleville. Passing points put Boen
on the outside pole, which he used to grab the early lead. But after a
mid-race caution and a change in his groove, Kelly dropped to second. As
the top two sped around the historical oval, lapped traffic gave Boen
his opportunity to retake the lead and his first victory on the High
Banks.
Since that night, the #07 has become
the winningest late model in history at Belleville. Kelly and the
RoadRunner Fabrication team have accumulated 48 wins on the NCRA
circuit, an all-time record, and 4 titles. They have claimed the series
checkered flags from MLRA, WDRL, TORA, and his biggest win to date, the
2008 World of Outlaws show on July 20th, here at the High Banks.
The 2010 schedule has seen Kelly
compete in Florida in February, Oklahoma in March, and Nebraska in May.
We know we will see him in June and September, returning to one of his
favorite tracks, and a city that has adopted the charismatic racer.
Congratulations and Good Luck Kelly!!
