Nuttleman took the lead over Mark Lamoreaux from Bloomington, MN who led the race by a sizable margin until he blew a tire and fell out of the running for the checkered flag.

The feature included multiple crashes that included Tim Nelson, Ken Christenson Jr., and the rookie Jon Barrette who crashed coming into turn one.

With his win on Saturday night Nuttleman retains his lead in the Kwik Trip Late Models point standings. Last weeks feature winner Tony Bagstad of Cashton ended up taking 15th.

Randy Steinhoff of Cashton in his Dodge Ram ended up taking home the checkered flag in the Sportsman feature. Steinhoff started the race in first and ended up in the Zip Lube, Bob Johnson Oil victory lane. Steinhoff had to race to the best of his abilities to fend off the pursuing cars of Jimmy Gilster, and Tom Thill who were right on his heels till the end. Sam Anderson and John Korish were involved in a crash coming out of turn four.

Some notables were Jimmy Gilster of West Salem with second, Tom Thill also from West Salem placed third, Corey Jankowski from Tomah with fourth, and Chad Wehling hailing from Stoddard ended up with fifth. Last weeks Sportman feature winner Dan Gilster placed 18th.

Dale Jacob from Winona pulled into the Zip Lube/ Bob Johnson Oil victory lane and was later dq'd forfeiting the victory to Holmen's own Dan Erdman. The rookie Erdman was racing door to door with Dean Ashbacher and Jason Schaller the entire race in the battle for the second position. The race was finally decided and truth prevailed. Some notables in the Thunderstox division are Dean Ashbacher of Rockland who took Second, Jason Schaller of LaCrosse took third, Andy Moore of Sparta took fourth, and Greg Lindvig took Fifth.
