That gave the win to hard charging Todd Korish. Following his victory Korish commented “I’ve earned a lot of respect this year and I still don’t really consider myself one of the veteran drivers, but we keep getting better every week.” Korish and Lamoreaux, who finished 2nd, fought hard to take the lead from Burgess, but failed in their attempt.

Chris Skrede hit the wall on lap 9 to bring out the first caution. The big one happened on lap 14. Multiple cars got together in turn three, and three hit the wall. Skylar Holzhausen (18th) was the first to spin and took Jim Hagel (23rd) and Adam Degenhardt (24th) with him. Kevin Nuttleman, coming off of a 9th place finish last week, took 3rd. Steve Holzhausen finished 4th, and Todd Oliver finished 5th after leading the first half of the race.

The North Country Contractors Sportsmen race was won by Todd Lockington, a first time feature winner. Lockington started 2nd and passed Randy Steinhoff early and held the lead for the rest of the race over Ken Lewis who finished 2nd. Lewis fought hard for his first win, nearly spinning out in turn one trying to overtake Lockington, but was unable to make the pass. The battle for third heated up around lap 10. After a lot of pushing and shoving Jes Tenner (3rd) was able to take the position from Larry Bolster Jr. (4th) and Randy Steinhoff (5th).

Bill Inglett won the United Auto Supply Thuderstox race by inches over Keith Larson. A caution was brought out early in the race by Dennis Johnson (22nd) Johnson started second but quickly fell to the back and by lap 4 hit the wall bringing out the only caution. The top five was rounded out by Kris Buldhaupt (3rd), Matt Inglett (4th), and Steve Owen (5th).

This week the Speedway welcomed the USST North Truck series. Andy Jirik won the feature after passing Steve Miller (5th) for the lead on lap 5 and fighting his way through lap traffic. A caution came out with one lap to go after the hood came up on Roger Eagan’s truck in turn 2. Jirik held on to the lead over Gary Cerny on the restart. Cerny finished 2nd. John Wood finished 3rd and Fred Oswald came in 4th.
