Seng Fastest, Earns first NLRA Feature win of 2009

 

Prepared by: Orness Creations

6/19/09 River Cities Speedway

Grand Forks, ND

 

The World Of Outlaws made their first stop of two at River Cities Speedway this past week with the NLRA Late Models also on the card. The other two classes were dropped for the night which was promoted by SLS Promotions. Great weather greeted the fans and teams as twenty two WISSOTA/NLRA late models entered and thirty Sprints signed in to compete in the WOO Event.

 

The Late Models were split into three heat races seven cars each with the first having one more than the others. The young Canadian driver, Ricky Weiss, won the first heat race from the pole position. Weiss was chased by Brad Seng, who finished second and third place finisher Brandon Burke. John Halvorson of Warren, MN started outside the front row of the second heat race and completed one of his best runs taking the checkered flag ahead of Troy Schill and Doyle Erickson. Harold Schill Jr. grabbed the last heat race win after also starting outside the front row. Two Fargo regulars, Cody Skytland and Matt Aukland raced for the first time this year at RCS and finished a strong second and third respectively. Aukland was chased by Tom Corcoran across the ND Eye Clinic Finish Line, both of which advanced three spots from their starting positions.

 

The Feature Event seen all cars starting with the exception of Mike Balcaen, who had motor issues in the heat race. John Halvorson and Brad Seng composed the front row with Brandon Burke and Cody Skytland in the second row. The feature seen one caution throughout race with Brad Seng picking up his second win at River Cities Speedway and first NLRA victory in 2009. Seng was challenged late in the race by Tom Corcoran who looked to have one of his best runs this year. Corcoran started seventh and had caught Seng within about five laps. Skytland was right there also mixing it up with the 40 year veteran. Brandon Burke was back and forth between cars in the top five, but when the checkered flag was waving, he still finished in the top five. Ricky Weiss was faster as the laps clicked off. Weiss started ninth and advanced six spots to finish a strong third to Seng and Corcoran. Cody Skytland was the top traveler of the night by finishing in the same spot he started, which was fourth.

 

River Cities Speedway will run their Premier Racing Series this coming Friday night with it being Mid-Season Track Championship Night. The NOSA Sprints will run their makeup feature from the 12th of June and Legend cars will also compete as this is the Grand Forks Fair weekend. Get ready for the WOO Late Models, as they will make their only appearance in 2009 on July 10th. Visit rivercitiesspeedway.com for more info.
