Wi Dirt Racin

An evening full of memories and new adventures included introductions of past track champions during intermission. A few were selected to wave the green and checker flags for the features. A ground fireworks display brought the evening to a close.

First feature to roll trackside was Sadoff Iron and Metal Late Models. Charlie Schmidt (Oostburg) and Billy Rezitek (Big Bend) set the pace leading the field to the green. Justin Schmidt (Cleveland) wasted no time taking over the lead on lap one after starting third followed by Russ Scheffler (Waukesha) who started fifth. Last week’s winner Brad Mueller (Random Lake) battled a few drivers in pursuit of the leader after starting eleventh. Jim Schmidt (Cleveland) and Tim Carmen (Sheboygan Falls) encounter traffic as they continue to swap positions. Justin Schmidt managed to keep momentum on the fast and dry track as he held off Russ Scheffler lap after lap and managed to even pull further away. Justin Schmidt crossed the checkers in this caution free feature, winning his first feature event. Russ Scheffler finished second followed by Kyle Odekirk (Plymouth), Brad Mueller and Billy Rezitek. Green and checker flag was waived by past track champion Willie Goeden (Kewaskum). Hard charger was Brad Mueller (Random Lake) passing 7 cars.

Sheboygan County Fair Association Outlaw Compacts rolled trackside with Corey Martin (Sheboygan) and Jonathon Otte (Cedar Grove) setting the pace. On the first lap drivers discovered that going four wide down the front stretch and into turn one wasn’t going to be successful. Travis Arenz (Sheboygan) ended up stuck on the berm bringing out our first and only caution. Jonathon Otte captured the lead on the restart, followed by Justin Erickson (Plymouth) and Brian Chiminatti (Manitowac). Mike Schultz (Sheboygan Falls) and Jarred Rautmann (Plymouth) both retired to the pits with mechanical issues.

Lee Schroeder (Plymouth) becomes our first lapped car on lap 10. Tim Haddy (Waupun) was our first of two cautions for spinning alone on the backstretch.
