EAGLE RIVER, Wis. (June 24, 2025)—Tomahawk’s Zack Friske dodged several cautions and a late-race rally from defending USRA Late Model national champion Cade Nelson to win the main event at Eagle River Speedway Tuesday night.

Friske outraced fellow front row starter Dustin White into the lead of the 20 lap contest. Several yellows slowed the action in the first half of the race.

In the first half of the contest, Friske felt pressure from both Dave Bennett and Jesse Aho. Meanwhile by lap 10, Nelson had sliced his way through the field from his 10th starting position into 3rd by lap 13.

Nelson motored past Bennett into second by lap 15 and chased down Friske. In the final circuits, Nelson was able to pull alongside of Friske. But the Tomahawk racer kept his racer in the tacky high groove and hung on for his first feature flag here of 2025.

Nelson settled for second at the pay window, followed by Lucas Peterson, Bennett and Aho..
