(EAGLE RIVER, WI) June 30 – Defending champion Jesse Aho of Twin Lakes led every lap and dodged four caution periodsto capture the B mod feature at Eagle River Speedway Tuesday night.

Aho sprinted from his pole position and quickly put a few car lengths between himself and the rest of the field. Throughout the contest Aho sweated out a handful of caution periods but was able to keep Bruce Belland and company at bay to capture his first feature flag of 2020.


Belland took second for the second straight week. Tad Schoonover, Jason Zdroik and Marcus Dunbar rounded out the top five finishers.

Pulaski’s “Hot Rod” Snellenberger took full advantage of his front row starting spot and cruised to his second straight stock car victory. The defending track champion received stiff challenges throughout the contest from hometown racer David Blackberg and in the later going Tomahawk’s Brandon Hakala, who finished second. Mark Schuenemann, Ryan Glembin and Hunter Anderson placed third through fifth, respectively.

Sugar Camp’s Jason Eisel won his second straight Unified street stock feature. The race was one of high attrition as six of the ten starters dropped out, leaving four cars left running at the checkers.

Eagle River’s Jason Zdroik captured the ERS late model feature.

Minocqua’s Mya Towne led every lap en route to victory in the 600 Micro Sprint feature.

Eagle River’s Mason Zdroik won his second straight 300 Junior sprint feature.
