Shawano (6/14/14) — Nick Anvelink left the race track a bit richer after topping a field of 36 late models and taking home the $2000 top prize that went with it on Seubert Calf Ranches night at the races.. Travis VanStraten put an end to Kyle Frederick’s winning streak in the IMCA Stoc Car class. Lance Arneson and Dalton Nelson secured there first wins of the season. While Tracy Wassenberg raced to his third victory.

Troy Kuyoth led the first four laps of the Late Model feature before succumbing to mechanical woes. Justin Hirt inherited the lead from Kuyoth, but Paul Parker put the pass on Hirt on a lap 5 restart. Parker’s time out front only lasted for two laps though as Nick Anvelink raced inside of Parker on lap seven of the race to take over the lead. Anvelink led for the duration of the forty lap feature to win his third feature of the year. Parker, and Troy Springborn had a spirited battle for second with Parker holding on to the spot.

Craig “The Tiger” Bartz was back on the prowl early on in the IMCA Modified feature. Bartz led the first twelve laps of the race. On lap thirteen Bartz slipped just high enough to open the door for Lance Arneson and Marcus Yarie to slip past and into the top two spots. Yarie continued to pressure Arneson as the race ran on, but Arneson was up to the challenge and scored his first win of the year.

In the IMCA Sport Mod feature Tracy Wassenberg led the final nineteen laps after taking the lead from Tristin Peebles on the way to his third win of the year. Jordan Bartz pursued Wassenberg the entire race, but could not muster a pass. Joey Taycher held off Jake Solin for third.

The IMCA Stock Car feature saw Vern Stedjee race into the lead on lap one. Stedjee would stay there until lap five when hard charging Travis VanStraten took the lead with an outside line pass coming out of turn two. Aside from a lap sixteen restart VanStraten was virtually unchallenged. Mike Schmidt passed Vern Stedjee to finish second. Stedjee took third. The win by VanStraten ended Kyle Frederick’s undefeated streak to start the season.

Tanner Westphal shot into the lead on the opening lap of the Mighty Four feature and led the first six laps of the race. Dalton Nelson powered into the lead on lap seven and went on to score his first victory at the track.
