ANGELL PARK MID-SEASON 25 RACE REPORT

Photos by Jeff Wilcenski www.openwheelpictures.comThe Mid-Season 25 by Merillat Cabinets and Chase Lumber was contested at Angell Park Speedway on Sunday.

Indiana's Brad Kuhn set the bar in qualifying, as he was the only car to crack the 14-second bracket.

The trophy dash was won by Mike Hess in the Jerryatric Motor Sports number 1.

In heat action, Scott Hatton in the Huston Solution Racing midget took the first one. Meanwhile, Kurt Mayhew wondered where all the fast guys were, as he backed up several Victory Lane visits of late, with a feature win over both Hess and Kuhn.

Bubba Altig, with Mopar power, won the qualifying race, while Sun Prairie's Chad DeSelle took the Semi.

The Badger A-Main started with a strong run by Aaron Fiscus. Kuhn looked good early, but a flat tire put him in the pits and relegated him to a 13th place finish. In the end it was Hess who topped the field.

Next week, expect an infield full of midgets as the Illini Racing Series has been added to the card. With word of the Kurt Mayhew bounty still in effect, the IRS regulars, with more and more seasoning on the Angell Park clay, are sure to be gunning for the $300 bonus. Several drivers from both the Badger and IRS groups have crossed over making for an interesting and entertaining night of racing.

Time trials for the Family Night 25 presented by the Pitstop Pub and Budweiser are scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m with racing to follow.
