forgiving,all the wet weather had taken its toll.Several of the drivers stated
"the staff did what they could do,and did a decent job for us to get the races
in,we have raced on much worse racetracks were here to race and thats what were
gonna do,a few ruts are not going to stop us!!!
In the Latemodels Mike Miller started front row and finished the same with a
hard charging Dave Engelkins and Terry Huizel following.
In the modified class Mike Garland took the checkers first making him 3 for 3
with Ben Hamberg and Josh Vinnedge finishing second and third.
