WHITE SCORES EAGLE RIVER SPEEDWAY B MOD MAIN
(EAGLE RIVER, WI) July 9– Hometown driver Dustin White fought off a stiff challenge from Michigan racer Dave Dishaw for several laps and emerged triumphant and went on to win the B mod feature at Eagle River Speedway Tuesday.
The pair swapped the lead for several laps with White opting for the outer groove and Dishaw working the bottom in a clean, but hard fought race. Dishaw settled for second at the pay window, followed by Ryan Brown, Kory Joliff and rookie Dustin Kangas.
Tomahawk’s Zack Friske swept action in the late model class, winning both his heat and the caution free feature. Travis Friske took second place money, followed by Jason Zdroik, Aaron Reivitis and hometown driver Guy Carley.
Pulaski’s “Hot Rod” Snellenberger sweated out a trio of late caution periods to earn career IMCA stock car win No. 224. Earlier in the night Snellenberger scored a heat win, netting him a clean sweep for the night. Trailing at the checkers were visitor Jesse Krahn, Jason Zdroik Jonathan Miller and Jason Eisel.
In street stock action Mass City, Michigan’s Wyatt McIntyre stayed with the clean sweep theme and did just that in that division winning both his heat and feature race.
Pittsville’s Hoyt Cournoyer ducked underneath Chase Richer on a lap two restart to take the lead he never relinquished en route to winning the 600 micro sprint feature.

Hometown driver Mason Meier continued his prowess by sweeping action the pro division while visiting driver Nathan Winling Jr. from Escanaba, Michigan pulled off the same fete in the semi-pro class.
