Ladies and Gentleman, it's the Season Finale at NCR! After about an inch of rain this morning, the track looks to be in great condition as a full fleet of cars looks to make their way around the 3/8 dirt track for the last time this season. All classes will be running tonight including WISSOTA Modifieds, Midwest Modifieds, Mod 4's, Street Stocks, Pure Stocks, and Trophy cars. Most of the Championships are already locked in at this point, but yet there's still a few battles to be had.
I don't know if the Trophy cars point's matter...but #2 of Mike Roy/Stacy Pederson has it locked solid. FYI I personally think Stacy is the better driver...or at least the crazier one.
In the street stock, Ryan Pommerer has a solid 20 point lead on James Tandeski. However the 2nd the place battle should be a good one with Rick Schultz only 1 point behind Tandeski. Jim Geringer and Adam Burrows aren't factors to move up, sitting in 4th and 5th respectively.
The Pure Stock division has Paul Colvin sitting comfortably 14 points ahead of Wade Moerke. Again the battle for 2nd place is a good one with Kenny Crane just 1 measly point behind Moerke. Taylor Saari (4th) and Mike Bjorgan (5th) have nothing to gain or lose.
The Mod 4 race is by far the closest battle we have. Rob VanMil sits just 10 points ahead of Aaron Wetterlin and 13 points ahead of Luke Johnson. Key for Rob is to get into the feature in one piece and a top 10 finish should get him a championship. Bryce Bjerken is in 4th place and Cory VanMil is in 5th.
Tyler Peterson is looking to wrap up his 2nd Track Championship of the year in a Midwest Modified. A start in the feature should get him there. He has a 24 point lead on arch nemesis Rich Pavilcek. Casey Arnenson, however, is just 1 point behind Pavy. Rob VanMil has had a solid year sitting in 4th place and Tyler Hall rounds out the top 5.
In the Modifieds you can pretty much crown Cody Skytland. I don't believe he even needs to show up tonight with a 40 point gap between him and 2nd place driver Bryce Borgen. Justin Jones sits 6 points behind the #7b with Austin Arnenson and Jamie Trautner to follow.
Other things you should know about tonight's race.
-They will be selling root beer floats again tonight...and yes...they are amazing!
-Should be specials on pretzels too from what I hear.
-There will be no racing broadcast, but I will be announcing the races as Jim is busy with football coverage.
