Deer Creek Speedway


First Time Winners Highlight Tasseldega Nights

Spring Valley, MN (July 20)
By: Todd Narveson

It was Tasseldega Nights at Deer Creek Speedway on Saturday. The Local County Corn Growers Associations of Dodge, Goodhue, Freeborn, Fillmore, Olmsted and Wabasha counties provided free admission to the grandstand.

The program was also supported by SGI, Absolute Energy, Poet Biorefining, Midwest Machinery, J&S JCB, J&S Repair, Schott Distributing, Dierks Farms, Mark Sexton Trucking, First Farmers & Merchants State Bank of Grand Meadow, Stewartville and Racine, K2 Ag-Legacy Seed, KIK Marketing and LRS Waste Services.

The Kid’s Dreams Come True USRA B-Mods had 33-entries and ran one feature this week. Dustin Kruse would take off from the outside of row one and open up a big lead. The race for second on back was good with Brandon Hare, Jayden Larson, Taylor Skauge and Kaeden Bronner.

A yellow on lap nine would slow the race but it did not deter Kruse at all. Kruse took off again and dominated the rest of the way for his third win of the season. Hare would finish in second followed by Larson, Skauge and Bronner.

Nineteen cars started the Meadow Greens Golf Course USRA Hobby Stock feature. The race was really good, but it was hindered by a number of yellow flags. Luke Schluetter and Krysta Doughty put on a show between the slowdowns.

Doughty would lead until lap five when Schluetter nabbed the lead before a yellow on lap five. On the restart, Chris Hovden would make it three wide for the lead with Doughty and Schluetter. The fifth yellow would fly on lap seven and laps were cut. Another yellow on lap 14 would set up a green, white checkered finish.

Schluetter would fend off a late challenge from Doughty for his first win of the year. Nick Schwebach drove to third in the last scramble while Hovden was fourth. Ryan Goergen raced from 10th to finish in the fifth position.

As the full moon rose over turn two, the Dirt Doctor Trucking Midwest Modifieds started their feature. On lap on in turn one six cars piled up to bring out the yellow. Colin Wittenberg took the lead and was in control of the race. Jayme Hiller and Billy Steinberg battled for second and then Christopher Deno challenged and got to third.

Wittenburg got into lapped traffic on lap 10 and disaster struck. Wittenburg and a lapped car made contact in turn three that sent Wittenberg for a spin. He was then collected by two other cars and his night was over.

Steinberg then took the lead, but Deno went to the top of the track and drove past for the lead on lap 12. Deno took off from there and won his third feature of the season. Kadden Kath made a late pass for second while Steinberg ran third. Shane Howell came from 12th and finished fourth and Adam Martinson was fifth.

Blake Adams shot to the early lead in the Rochester Chevrolet-Cadillac USRA Stock Cars. Phillip Dunbar, Brandon Hare and Brayden Gjere were three wide for second on lap three. Gejere zoomed to second and took after Adams for the lead.

Adams and Gjere ran close on laps six thru eight. Then three two exchanged several slide jobs and the lead changed several times. Gjere took the lead on lap 12 before a yellow slowed the race and set up an exciting restart.

The green came out and Brandon Hare challenged Gjere for the lead. Hare was scored the leader on lap 14 before the yellow flag came out again. On the restart, Gjere planted himself on the cushion and drove back by Hare for the lead on lap 18.

Gjere led the last two laps for his first win of the season and ninth overall. Hare would finish in second with Adams in third. Shanw Peter would finish in fourth and Andrew Bleess charged from 12th to fifth.

Twenty-three NAPA Auto Care Centers USRA Modifieds took the green flag for their 250-lap feature. Ryan Wetzstein jumped from row one to the lead. Parker Hale and Jacob Bleess raced for second before a caution for debris slowed the race on lap four.

On the restart, Wetzstein led, while Brandon Davis made it three wide with Hale and Bleess for second. Bleess got to second and Davis was third on lap six. They ran that way until they caught lapped traffic on lap 14 and a yellow flag flew.

On the restart Hale threw a haymaker of a slide job on Wetzstein and stole the lead int turn two. Davis was right there with the lead dup. Dustin Sorensen who started 21st was now in the top five. Davis stole the lead on lap 20 while the top four remained in tight formation.

Davis led the final five laps for his 78th career win at Deer Creek, Hale finished second while Sorensen’s charge ended in third. Joe Chisholm made a late charge to fourth and Wetzstein ened up fifth in the final rundown.
