At the Ada Nationals, Saurer and Pavlicek perform like Norman County winners on Thursday

ADA, MN (June 19) - Travis Saurer and Rich Pavlicek left the pits at Norman County Raceway WISSOTA Dirt Track Series winners Thursday night, as the speedway in Ada, MN hosted its annual Ada Nationals Fair Race and the King Pin Klash.

Saurer started fifth on the grid in the WISSOTA Modifieds, gaining the lead around lap three. He battled Bryce Sward back and forth for the top spot in the later stages of the race, and took control for good in the last few laps to gather the checkered flag. Sward, Brock Gronwold, Tyler Peterson and Joseph Thomas were top-five finishers.

In the WISSOTA Midwest Mods, Pavlicek scored the victory, his first of the 2025 season. He was followed to the checkered flag by Aaron Blacklance. Reise Stenberg, who led a good portion of the race, fell back to third at the finish, while Taylor Jacobson was fourth. Justin Olson improved three spots to finish fifth on the grid.

The IMCA Sport Mods and Legends were also able to complete their features. Jayden Pavlicek won in the Sport Mods, while Brandon Bunnis was the winner in the Legends feature.
