Christensen, Vander Weide revisit I-90 Speedway victory lane

Miah Christensen won the USRA B-Mod main event.

Miah Christensen won the USRA B-Mod main event.


Miah Christensen scored the win in the USRA B-Mod feature and Levi Vander Weide took home the trophy in the LawnSnow.com USRA Hobby Stocks Saturday night at the I-90 Speedway in Hartford, S.D.

A last-corner move gave Christensen his third win of the year at I-90 Speedway where he is the only repeat winner so far on the season.

Christensen chased down race leader Kevin Joachim in the closing laps and followed him in the final turns. It was not to be for Joachim, who was filling in for Chris Goetz, as he was clipped in traffic which cut down a tire.

Christensen got to the checkered flag first with Joachim second and Aaron De Thury in third.

It was a side-by-side battle late for the USRA Hobby Stock contest with Dustin Gulbrandson and Vander Weide circling the track racing door-to-door for several laps. 

While Gulbrandson was in front for eight laps, Vander Weide had the advantage at the checkered by just 0.034 second.

The victory is the fourth for Vander Weide’s career at I-90 Speedway.

This Saturday is Hartford Night—part of the town’s Jamboree Days celebration. The four divisions of the Paramount Racing Series will be in action. Stands open for spectators at 5 p.m. with cars taking to the track at 6:30.
