Bagstad Conquers In
Thriller!
By David Morgan |
July 12,
2003; West Salem, WI - Double file and nose to
tail...like a finish at Talladega, is the way to describe the Ray Hutson Chevrolet 25 for
the Kwik Trip NASCAR Late Model division.
Cashton's Tony Bagstad took the lead with four laps to go in the
caution-free event, and finished side-by-side at the checkered, narrowly edging out Mike
Belling of LaCrosse. The race saw Kevin Nuttleman take the early lead, until pole-sitter
Belling took command on lap seven.
elling led through lap 21, while receiving pressure from four different
drivers in the runner-up position. J. Herbst, Bagstad, Charlie Menard and Nuttleman all
took shots at Belling, but it was Bagstad's night to shine. The top ten cars were two-wide
and bumper to bumper at the fall of the checkered flag, while the estimated crowd of 3700
race fans rose from their seats for the finish.
The Ray Hutson Chevrolet 15 for the Ray Hutson Chevrolet Grand National
Division gave the fans its usual thrills. After fifteen laps, two cautions for multi-car
accidents, Sam Andersen of Melrose, WI was able to cap off the night in top form. It was a
great night for Andersen, as he debuted in the Late Model Division, where he qualified
fourth, and finished a respectable fifteenth.
Holmen's Greg Lindvig captured the victory in the United Auto Supply
Thunderstox feature event.
