Sunday will be the final event of the Labor Day Weekend, but it’ll be anything but relaxing as make-up features from the July 14 rain-shortened program will precede a full program of events at the Dodge County Speedway in Kasson, Minn.
Sunday’s 9th Annual Kasson Klash will be the 26th occasion that the USMTS Modifieds have taken the green flag at the 151-year-old Dodge County Fairgrounds. Donlinger held off Jason Hughes in a thriller last summer during the Hunt for the USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Championship for his first USMTS win in Kasson. Hughes has three career wins along with Memorial Day Weekend winner Myer. Shryock tops he list with four career wins here. Brad Waits, Todd Scharkey and Dan Chapman are two-time winners while Mike Hejna, Sorensen, Tesch, Dripps, Wasmund, Scott Megonigle, Chris Spieker and Mike Chasteen have one win each.
Hot laps are slated for 4:30 p.m. with racing at 5. USRA Karl Performance Parts B-Mods, Midwest Mods, Pure Stocks and Street Stocks are also on tap for Sunday's regularly-scheduled show.
The Dodge County Speedway is located 1.1 mile north of US 14 on SR 57 (at the Dodge County Fairgrounds). For more info, call 651 226-3706 or 507 634-6400 on raceday or visit www.dodgecountyspeedway.com online.
The main event will pay $3,000 to the winner with $2,000 earmarked for the victor in Sunday’s make-up main event. With all qualifying events completed, the show was deemed unfinished business on July 14 with the Real Racing Wheels “B” Mains and WIX Filters “A” Main to be completed Sunday. Drivers that were not in attendance July 14 may purchase a pit pass, pay the entry fee and start at the rear of the field in one of the Real Racing Wheels “B” Mains.
For licensed competitors that were on hand at the rain-out on July 14, they each received 45 show-up points for the event in the Yeager Machine Upper Midwest Region. Additional points earned in Sunday’s make-up race will be added to each driver’s total points to determine the final standings in the Yeager Machine Upper Midwest Region.
The 2010 season for the USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour will conclude at the 12th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Sept. 23-25, at the Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn., where the 2010 USMTS National Champion will be crowned.
