Jason Laviolette took the early command in the IMCA Hobby
Stock Feature right in front of brother Roger. Frank
Paul and Brandon Peterson split cars going three wide on
their way to challenge for the lead. A three
wide battle for the lead between Paul, Laviolette, and
Peterson for two laps turned sour heading into turn 1 with 5
laps to go. Laviolette pushed through turns one and two
getting into Peterson. Peterson made hard contact with the
wall causing a caution. Frank Paul inherited the lead and
held off Keith Kickbusch and Dave DeGrave to win his first
career IMCA Hobby Stock Feature win. Kickbusch who was
second improved his
point lead over DeGrave who was third. Roger Laviolette was
fourth followed by Marcus Moede.
Dennis Wiedner opened up the Street Stock feature with an
impressive couple of laps before Tim Czarneski grabbed the
lead using the high side. Czarneski would pull away from the
rest of the pack leaving second between John Sternard,
Wiedner and Jeremy Wiitala. A caution for a bumper on lap 9
setup a 6 lap dash for cash. Czarneski was never challenged
after the restart and picked up his first Street Stock
feature win at Thunderhill. First time runner, Shannon
Guilette finished second followed by Sternard, Scott
Reinhardt, and Tim Jandrin.
Rick Mahlberg is always a force on a tacky track.
Mahlberg cruised way out front in the early part of the IMCA
Stock car feature. Matt Junio and Von Eytcheson would
quickly make their ways to second and third. A caution on
lap 8 would regroup the field setting up a 10 lap finale.
Von Eytcheson used his outside restarting spot to pass Junio
and lock in on Mahlberg. The next few laps Eytcheson tried
the top to make the pass. Finally, Eytcheson went to the
extreme topside and passed Mahlberg for the lead for good.
Eytcheson cruised to his second straight win followed by
Mahlberg, Troy Muench, Junio, and Scott Pagels.
A green to checker run in the IMCA Modifieds is usually a
rarity, but Saturday night the modifieds were able to do
just that. Chris Derenne led the opening few laps until Jay
Matthias went powering bye on top. Matthias would dominate
the middle part of the race until Benji LaCrosse got to the
back bumper. Matthias and LaCrosse started working
their way
through lapped traffic. As LaCrosse was going to make the
pass down low, Mark Berglund got real loose. LaCrosse
had to check up hard allowing Matthias to pull away up top
and pick up his first win of the season. LaCrosse was second
followed by Tom Stark, Randy Lemieux Jr, and Shawn Kilgore.
Jeff Dubois held off Charlie Kroll at the end of the IMCA
Northern Sportmod feature to pick up his first career IMCA
Northern Sportmod win. He also won the $300 bounty on Kroll.
Kasey gross won his third feature of the season by about a ¼
lap in the 4 Cylinders.
Dan Merkle edged Jesse Kroll by a bumper as he won the
Bomber feature.
Next Saturday Night July 28th, Sonny's Pizzeria and Mays
Sport Center will be sponsoring the night. The top three
trailers decorated in Christmas themes will receive $300,
$150, and $50. The track's website is
