\"Todd-Shute\"OSKALOOSA, Iowa (July 16) \u2013 And then there were seven.<\/p>\n

Todd Shute became the seventh different winner in as many Karl Performance Hawkeye Dirt Tour presented by XSAN events this season, with a commanding run\u00a0Tuesdaynight at Southern Iowa Speedway.<\/p>\n

The IMCA Xtreme Motor Sports Modified victory paid $1,000 and put Shute on the ballot for the Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational this September.<\/p>\n

Runner-up Scott Hogan led the first eight of 25 circuits after starting outside pole and avoiding the mishaps that brought out two early cautions. Shute had his hands full with Mike Van Genderen and Nebraskan Dylan Smith before gaining second and going to the high side to challenge Hogan.<\/p>\n

Shute had the lead when the ninth lap was scored. He\u2019d race to a comfortable advantage over Hogan while Van Genderen was firmly in third and Smith in fourth. \u201cB\u201d qualifier and hard charger Steve Stewart had a lengthy duel with Mark Elliott before securing fifth.<\/p>\n

Stewart cracked the top five after starting 18th<\/sup>. Cayden Carter, just two days removed from his Hogan Memorial victory at Benton County Speedway, was a plus 11 on the night and finished sixth.<\/p>\n

Point leader Ronn Lauritzen was 11th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

The eighth of 11 HDT series events this season is\u00a0Monday, Aug. 5\u00a0at Independence Motor Speedway.<\/p>\n
