Sommers, Moeller, Yarie And Jackson Get First Wins Of The Year
By Scott Owen
Clintonville,WI,5/24 - Seventy four racers were on hand to do battle at the
GSR Kartway. Mother nature did her best to put a stop to the racing by
bringing a brief rain shower after the first session of heat races.
Track workers didn't give up on the track though, and were able to work the
track surface back into racing form. Casey Sommers, Nick Moeller, Marcus
Yarie, and Darren Jackson picked up their first feature wins of the young
season. While Brayden Litton, Brett Swedberg, and Jake Boldig were
repeat winners.
Brayden Litton continued his dominance in the kiddie kart class by sweeping
the heat and feature races. Litton is still undefeated on the
season. Braden Muench finished second in the feature race.
In the box stock class Casey Sommers started in the third spot but had the
lead by the end of the opening lap. Sommers would lead the rest of the
race for his first feature win of the year. Tyler Olson raced his way
into second, while Hunter Parsons took third. Carter Kauth and Mike
Moeller won the heat races.
"The Missile" Aaron Milavitz led the opening lap of the stock lite
feature before handing the lead over to Brett Swedberg. Swedberg held
off Kirk Quaintance to pick up the win. Quaintance was second in the
race. Ryan Hinner crossed the line in third. Milavitz and Joe
Reuter won the heat races.
Brandon Reichenberger grabbed the lead at the start of the controlled stock
feature. On lap two Nick Moeller made the pass to take over the top
spot. Moeller would not be denied in his quest for the win.
Reichenberger had to settle for second in the race. Chris VanSwol
finished in third. Reichenberger won the heat race.
The junior flathead feature was led for the first four laps by Parker
May. On lap five Jake Boldig took over the lead. Boldig led the
rest of the way for his second consecutive feature win at the track.
Tanner Wunderlich finished second in the race, one spot better than Randall
Wilhorn. Boldig also won the heat race.
The stock heavy feature proved to be an ultra competitive race between Andrew
Hock, Justin Heiting, and Marcus Yarie. Hock took the lead at the start
of the race. He was trailed closely by Heiting and Yarie. On lap
eight Heiting got to the inside of Hock in turn one. The two karters
made contact and slid up the track. This opened the door for Yarie, who
grabbed the lead. Yarie led the rest of the race to get the win.
Heiting finished second, while Hock had to settle for third. Justin
Flaig picked up the heat race win.
Ten year old Darren Jackson led every lap of the pro junior animal feature
race to pick up the win. Alex Hock finished in second, Jesse Colwell
finished third. Colwell and Hock brought home the heat race wins.
Brett Swedberg dominated the pro animal class to gain the victory.
Swedberg lapped all the way up to the fourth place finisher. Nathan
Horsens finished in the runner up spot. Aaron Milavitz finished
third. Swedberg also won the heat race.
