Northern Lightning Sprints - The Quickest Show of the Week

Steinmetz Outlasts Stengl in Lightning Sprint Thriller
Week in review August 9, 2013

With the NOSA Sprints off for the Knoxville Nationals, one would have thought that the Northern Lightning Sprints was just a filler in the schedule. One couldn't have been more wrong at any one time in the heats or the main, any 4 to 6 cars could have won. Multiple lead changes, these cars were as agile as any well set up outlaw sprint. Lap times were in the mid 12's, which is about a half of a second to almost a whole second quicker in lap times than the WISSOTA Late models racing this same night. 

In the heats Wally Butler (35w) won the first heat, 2nd was Brody Hutton (13h) and 3rd Nocholas Otto (22).
Second heat Oslo, MN shoe Trent Stengl executed a slick slidejob to win with 4 to go on Roland Bernard (2r)
and 3rd was Danny Steinmetz (56s).

The main, it wasn't flag to flag at all, as Steinmetz (56s) started on the pole but a group of 5 cars diced it out for the top 3 positions, with Stengl (7) challenging the Steinmetz early and often. Eventually, Steinmetz gave up the lead for only 2 laps until a caution reset the field and Steinmetz led the remaining circuits to the checkers. Complete Results

The Northern Lightning Sprints will see The Legendary Bullring once again on the schedule. September 13th is the date for the Season Finale with the NOSA Sprints, Super Trucks, and Legends.
