Kerkhoff Gets Wire to Wire Win at 141

Joe Kerkhoff of DePere showed the field why he was track champ at 141 Speedway Saturday night by winning the feature race.

Kerkhoff led the event from start to finish and survived challenges from former champ Gregg Haase of Two Rivers and Bob Schultz of Reedsville. Dennis Rabas of Maribel would also threaten to take the top spot dueling with Kerkhoff side by side for three laps before dropping back to a fourth place finish.

Schultz would end up third right on the back bumper of Haase. Travis Groelle would come from a last place starting spot to fifth.

The Super Stocks spent most of their feature for the second week in a row creating "scrap metal". Kevin Charles would lead the first three laps when Mark Christiansen spun in turn two bringing out the yellow. On the restart, Randy Van Roy would come from the back of the pack to take the lead and hold on for his second feature win in a row.

Greg Thompson of Denmark came back from disastrous opening night engine meltdown to finis a close second holding off a charging Jimbo Schleis. Denny Crass and Josh Sand were fourth and fifth respectively.

Jason Rhia of Manitowoc led the field at the drop of the green in the Mini Stock feature followed closely by Sean Farrell of Green Bay. These two paced the fiel until lap eleven when Kari Kostichka collided with Callin Harrell send them both to the rear of the field and bringing out a yellow flag.

On the restart Rhia pulled out to a four car length lead and looked like he might cruise to victory when John Senkbeil of Sheboygan completed his charge on the outside of turn four on lap 22 of 25 taking the lead and the win. Rhia would get second with Jason Sand, Kevin Peroutka and Sean Farrell rounding out the top five.

Jason Rabas of Maribel won the Hobby Stock feature by a commanding margin taking over the point lead as he attempts to repeat as track champ. Jesse and Jason Behnke made it a family affair finishing second and third respectively just ahead of Kyle Kudick and Pete Kumbalek.

Next week it's Prestige Auto night at 141 with the regular racing program including the Mini Stocks, Hobby Stocks, Super Stocks and the Mid-American Sportsman cars. Time trials at 5:30pm with racing at 7pm. For more information see our website at 141Speedway.com.
