Late Models #10 Pete Parker and #32 Terry Anvelink battled for quite awhile with Anvelink securing the lead when lapped traffic came into play. It was his second straight feature win in as many weekly features. #95 BUDWEISER IMCA MOD Brian Joski led flag to flag and picked up his first career Seymour Speedway feature win Sunday night. Second place racer Jamie Schmidt #42s put the squeeze on IMCA Mod feature race leader #95 Brian Joski about midway in their A-main Sunday night at Seymour Speeday. In the IMCA Stock Car feature event, it came right down to the final lap between race leaders #10 Rod Snellenberger and #27 Darren Otto. Coming around on the last circuit, Snellenberger and Otto got together, Otto scrubbed the back stretch wall and both continued to battle it out to the checkers. #10 TRI COUNTY HEATING IMCA STOCK CAR Rod Snellenberger picked up his second straight division feature win Sunday night. #51 STREET STOCK  Jeremy Wiital won his first feature here since July 24, 2005 Sunday night at the Seymour Speedway. Former track champ Jeremy Wiitala led after an early race caution and picked up his first feature in two seasons. The race for 2nd was tight between #71 Rod Solem and #65 Bill Kelsey. Solem finished second, Darren Otto inched by for third with Kelsey fourth. #94 JJ Andersen caught leader #121x Andy Kleczka and chased him to the finish. Kleczka was docked 2 spots on the restart to place him in fourth. Unfortunatly, the apparent winner, Andersen, refused a claim after the race and was DQ'd, which moved everyone up and gave the win to Ian Lassanske. On lap 13 of the Sound Check 4 Cylinders, Pulaski's #11 Brad Matuszak hit the tire entering turn three and barrel rolled to the outsdie wall. He escaped injury and rewarded the crowd with a wave!

The Tri County Heating IMCA Stock Cars took the track first with Troy Jerovetz and Shawn Wagner swapping the lead over the first 5 laps before Jerovetz secured the top spot while Wagner, Cory Corchart, Kyle Wanner and Darren Otto bunched behind the leader. There were several cautions with the final falling on lap 12 . Jerovetz dropped out of the race which turned the leader over to Wagner with last weeks winner, Rod Snellenberger in second followed by Wanner, Corchart, Darren Otto, Greg Gretz and Kyle Fredrick.

Snellenberger dove to the inside to take the lead from Wagner after the restart and Otto powered to the outside and after a couple laps was alongside the leader. The pair ran almost side by side for the final 5 laps with Otto scored as the leader as the white flag appeared. The duel continued on the back chute but contact between them entering turn three caused Otto to graze the turn 3 wall and allowed Snellenberger to walk off with his second straight feature win this season. Otto recovered and held on for the runner up finish. Gretz finish a strong third after starting deep in the field coming through the consy to make the main. Wagner was fourth with Fredrick, also from the consy, taking fifth. Wanner completed his best feature run ever here taking sixth.

Mitch Landvick paced the opening lap of the Street Stock main but a second lap caution scrambled the running order with Jeremy Wiitala taking the lead. Despite several cautions, Wiitala was able to run at the front for the rest of the race and collected his first feature win since July 24, 2005. The race for the runner up spot was tight, with Rod Solem, Bill Kelsey and Darren Otto chasing Wiitala. Solem won the battle taking second place money with Otto slipping into third on the final lap. Kelsey was fourth. Harley Simon restarted the race in the back after the lap 2 caution and came back through to finish 5th. Paul White rounded out the top six.

A good field of 18 late Models took the green with Pete Parker slipping into the top spot followed by Terry Anvelink, Troy Springborn, Tom Naeyaert and Nick Anvelink. Anvelink stalked the leader until diving to the inside entering turn 1 on lap 7. Parker stayed right with the leader until lapped cars came into play on lap 10. After a lap 12 caution, Springborn looked like he would make a run at the lead pair, but suddenly dropped out of the race 2 laps later. Anvelink pulled away for his second straight feature win with Parker holding the runner up spot. Nick Anvelink took third with Naeyaert fourth. Justin Hirt and Jeff Curtain rounded out the top six.

Brian Joski grabbed the lead at the start of the Budweiser IMCA Modified feature with Jamie Schmidt, Eddie Muenster, David Werbelow and Jerry Wilinski right behind. The mods used three lanes running the main event as everyone tried to find the best spot for their car. A couple cautions early in the race helped keep the field bunched. Joski was able to hold off all challengers throughout the race and when the race for second got interesting, Joski was able open a slight lead. Jeremie Hedrick and Schmidt swapped the runner up spot several times with Wilinski, Brian Mullen and Benji LaCrosse right behind. Joski won his first ever division feature at Seymour with Schmidt taking the second place finish over Hedrick. Wilinski was fourth with Mullen and LaCrosse right behind.

Jake Wilcox led the way for the first 2 laps of the Sound Check 4 Cylinder feature before Andy Kleczka slipped by after a lap 3 restart. Kleczka pulled away a bit with JJ Andersen moving into second. Ian Lassanske, Jamie Miller and Chad Guyette moved in line behind. After running several laps alongside of the leader, Andersen took over the top spot and started to pull away from the pack, until a lap 14 red flag stopped the race for a wild rollover. Brad Matuszak was moving to the lead pack when he tagged a tire in turn three which sent him barrel rolling to the outside wall. He quickly climbed out to wave to the grandstand and look at his damaged race car.

Andersen was able to hold off Kleczka for the final 6 laps, to win his first career feature here. Lassanske was third with Miller fourth Guyette and Matt Frisch sixth.

Following the race, Kleczka was docked 2 positions for an incident during the race, which proved a big miscue when the winner was DQ’d for refusing a claim. This gave the win to Lassanske, his first career feature win and put Miller in second. Kleczka finished third with Guyette, Frisch and Tony Everard now in 6th.

Next Sunday will be Erdman Auto Parts night as they sponsor the Veterans salute on Memorial Day weekend.
