Jensen takes down two fields while Sabraski, Tramm and Jenson score in Mod Nationals finale at Ogilvie
By Tami Jo Kuehn
OGILVIE, MN (May 25) – Sunday night brought the 2025 Minnesota Truck Headquarters MN Modified Nationals presented by FYE Motorsports to a close. The event featured three impressive nights of racing and the night of WISSOTA Dirt Track Series action kept fans on the edge of their seats.
Winners included Shane Sabraski, Rowan Tramm, Tony Jenson and Joey Jensen.
James Trantina, Joey Jensen and Dexton Koch were three wide for the lead as the green waved in the WISSOTA Super Stock feature. Jensen nosed out ahead with Trantina snagging second and Koch in third. Koch kept close to Trantina while Shane Sabraski moved in to battle. Trantina took second and as Koch and Sabraski battled for third, they both looped it in the turn and a yellow was triggered.
The field was reset with Jensen in control, followed by Trantina and Ryan Kostreba. Drivers were three wide and battled for positions while Jensen stretched his lead. Dylan Nelson passed Kostreba, challenged Trantina, and then took over second.
One final caution occurred for debris, but Joey Jensen was unfazed as he sped away and took the win. Trantina, Sabraski, Dylan Nelson and Max Nelson completed the top five.

Joey Jensen snagged the lead when the green waved for the WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds as Cole Boston, Ryan Savoy and Jake Smith were nearly three wide for second. After a few laps, Boston secured the point leaving Smith and Savoy fighting for third.
About this time, Jensen was in heavy traffic. Boston took advantage of this and closed the gap Jensen had established. With just five laps remaining, a driver spun in the turn and triggered a caution. Jensen brought the drivers back to green, and with no traffic in front of him, Jensen took his second win of the night. Lucas Rodin finished second with Jake Smith, Cole Boston and Ryan Savoy in the top five.
The WISSOTA Modifieds went green with Shane Sabraski and Jody Bellefeuille leading the way. Sabraski claimed the lead with Jeremy Nelson and Jack Rivord in tow. Clayton Wagamon shot between Rivord and Landon Atkinson for third, then took second and began to chase after Sabraski as the yellow appeared.
A few restarts took place, but Sabraski had no issues as he drove away from the pack and cruised around the Big O. Sabraski began to work lapped traffic when a final caution was triggered with three laps to go.
Sabraski was in command on the restart but an eager Nelson and Wagamon were on his rear. Sabraski took the lead with Nelson racing low, and Wagamon running high. They were three wide in turn four, and Wagamon shot into the lead as they exited the curve. Sabraski slid back into the top position, with Wagamon and Nelson still right behind. Sabraski hung on to get the win with Nelson, Wagamon, Aaron Johnson and Atkinson rounding out the top five.

The WISSOTA Mod Fours were next up, and Rowan Tramm took the lead. The father-son team of Dustin and Robert Holtquist were in second and third. Tramm sped off held the lead until a car stalled in turns three and four which triggered a caution.
Tramm brought the drivers back to green, but Dustin Holtquist was not too far behind. Laps passed quickly and Tramm stretched his lead to nearly 5 seconds, when the yellow waved a final time.
It was a green, white and checkered finish and Rowan Tramm took his No. 14T to victory lane. Dustin Holtquist, Blake Hawker, Robert Holtquist and Tristan Torres completed the top five.
