Jason Cummins won the USRA Modified feature.


It was a hot and sultry evening at Deer Creek Speedway and the action on the track was as hot as the weather. The show was presented by Vestas American Wind Technology, Old Dutch and Schott’s Hardwood Floors. There was fun for the kids also as the first ever box car race was held at intermission.

A field of 24 Out-Pace USRA B-Mods took the green flag for their 18-lap main event. The race started with a bang when pole sitter Jackson Hale spun and triggered and nine car incident, They were three wide on the restart and cars bounced off each other as Kadden Kath took the lead. Zach Brom and Jim Chisholm wrestled for second with Jerry Young close behind. Sixth row starter Dustin Kruse bolted to the top five on lap three.

Kruse passed Brom to fourth on lap five as the caution flag flew. On the start Kath still led but the race for second heated up with Chisholm, Young and Kruse. Kruse got by Young and then Chisholm for second on lap eight. Kath, Kruse and Chisholm circled the track in tight formation with Chisholm making the pass for the lead. Kath drove to the low side of Chisholm and the leaders made contact. Smoke appeared from under Kath’s car while Kruse got back to second.

Chisholm led the final laps for his first win of the season. Kruse’s great run ended in second with Young in the third spot. Trevor Fecht raced to the fourth position and Kath managed to limp his damaged machine to a fifth place finish.


Jim Chisholm won the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod feature.

An excellent field of 22 USRA Modifieds took the green for the 25-lap finale for the night. Jason Cummins redrew the pole position and that was about all she wrote for the rest of the competition. Cummins took off and led every lap for his second win at Deer Creek and his sixth overall in 2017.

Jake Timm finished in second with Steve Wetzstein in third after he started in seventh. Lucas Schott would get past Josh Angst late in the race to finish in fourth while Angst rounded out the top five.
