By Chad Adamson

MONTEVIDEO, MN (July 25) - Twenty-six WISSOTA Hornets came to Fiesta City Speedway for an increased purse as part of the WISSOTA Dirt Track Series. The Pure Stocks also raced for an increased purse as part of the track’s Hornet and Pure Stock special.

Bobie Arnes topped the Hornet main event, while Matt Gilbertson, Trevor Nelson, Ryan Flaten and Mike Jans captured victories as well on Friday.

Russell Kiker, Jr. took the lead to start the WISSOTA Hornet feature, but after a few laps Arnes took over the lead. He drove on to get his first feature win at Fiesta City Speedway. Anthony Jenson started eighth and improved six spots to second. Adam VanDerostyne, Kiker, Jr., and Adam Throener were top-five finishers.

Ryan Flaten led the entire WISSOTA Midwest Modified feature for his second win of the season, followed to the checkered flag by sixth-starter Daniel Bjonfald and Justin Bjorklund in the top three. Scott Tofte and Cole Anderson completed the top five.

Mike Jans led the WISSOTA Street Stock feature flag to flag as he held off the hard-charging duo of Kolton Brauer and Eric Riley in the final laps for his second win of the year. Ninth-starter Brauer settled for second, 12th-starter Riley was third, Cody Hatch was fourth and Ethan Beckler rounded out the top five.

Trevor Nelson passed Travis Scott on lap four of the WISSOTA Super Stock feature and led the rest of the way to pick up the feature win. Scott, Karter Reents, Stewart Schipke, and Josh Roggatz finished in the top five.

Matt Gilbertson led the entire WISSOTA Late Model feature for his second win of the season. He was chased to the checkered flag by Devin Fouquette, Jordan Tollakson, Jon Tollakson and Jayson Good in the top five.

Carter Rice was the early leader of the Pure Stock feature. Jason Best took the lead from Rice on lap six and went on to win his second feature of the year.
