SPRING VALLEY, Minn. - Finally a nice Saturday night in Southern Minnesota for the fans and drivers at the Deer Creek Speedway. A small contingent of USMTS Modifieds were on hand to do battle with the USRA RHS Modified regulars as they get ready for the upcoming Memorial Day Weekend swing.

Tim Donlinger jumped out front coming out of turn two to lead the USRA RSH Modified feature wire to wire.

A.J. Wiste was in second with Kelly Shryock moving into third.  With four completed Shryock worked past Wiste to take over second.  With five completed Jason Cummins, Jay Ihrke and Dan Bohr were three wide for fifth.

Cummins took over the spot and on the next lap worked past Ryan Ruter for fourth.  With eight completed Donlinger had pulled out to a straight away lead.  behind the top three there was tons of racing going on with two and three side racing for position.

Ten laps completed and  Cummins worked under Wiste for the third spot while up front Donlinger continued to click off lapped cars eventually lapping up to the twelfth place car before a caution flew with two to go.

On the restart Donlinger took off with Shryock in second, Cummins in third and Mike Sorensen working past Ihrke for the fourth spot.
