Series for the club at its famed road circuit.

In feature action Garrett Armstrong beat Terry Thomas by a second and a half, as over 15 TaG Masters raced to the checkers. Dean Anthonsen finished third, just a tick behind Thomas.

The Yamaha Jr. Sportsman brought ten karts to the line for their feature with Mike McAndrews beating Sawyer Haese by eight seconds. Hot on Haese’s heals though, was Tyler Burns, less than a second back.

Preston Benisch made it a clean sweep verus ten other karts in Yamaha Jr. Sportsman Novice action as he won both heats and the main event. For the feature, Dylan Burns who dogged Benisch most of the day, finished second and Mitchell Yumanovich was third.

It looked as if Kodiak Wirtz would walk away with the feature for the Briggs Animal Juniors. After lap one, he had a ten kart lead over Alex Rosenquist. Another ten lengths behind the front two, was a great battle for the next four spots, with John Turner, Arielle Plonske, Jake Leichtfuss and Josiah Nelson nearly nose to tail. As things settled in, by lap five Rosenquist made up five lengths on Wirtz while the others had paired off into two other battles.

On the last lap, in the middle area of the course, Plonske got next to Turner and they battled through No Man’s Land (the final big left hander), before Plonske pulled away. Of her torrid battle with Turner, Plonske, noted, "I was really nervous at first and then I just went all out for it, to see if I could do it." She went on to say that in her four years of karting, this was one of her "coolest"moments.

Wirtz took the win by a half second over Rosenquist. Rosenquist seemed pleased with his effort, considering he started last. He explained that at the drop of the green he dispatched three karts by the time they exited turn one and caught the second place kart before the first lap was complete. After that he just had to try and reel in Wirtz. "I could have caught him in a couple of more laps," was Rosenquist’s thought on the subject.

No stranger to victory lane with the club, Wirtz made this observation of the race with Rosenquist, "I knew he was catching me. I knew he was coming. I just didn’t know when he was going to get me, he’s a tough guy."

The Kid Karts split the field of 21 karts into two groups, as has become the norm with such a strong showing from the starter class.
