SPRING VALLEY, Minn. (Sept. 20, 2002) - A field of 160 cars checked into the back gate for night number two including 88 Featherlite/USMTS modifieds, 37 WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds and 35 Super Stocks.

Mother Nature dumped some rain on the track overnight leaving the track very smooth but the track prep crew was not able to get on the track and work it early enough in the day to allow the same conditions as Thursday night. This caused a little stronger dust problem than usual and the track took rubber really early in the night causing a lot less passing during the heat races but the features ran well with some good racing.

The WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds were up first for their $600 to win feature and the event found Kenny Wytaske jumping out to the early lead. Behind Wytaske a lot of good two wide battles were being waged as many strong runners started back in the field. Neil Eckhart, Jerry Young ran side by side for most of the early feature with Eckhart gaining the advantage following Wytaske to the checkers. Wytaske took home his ninth feature win of the season.

The super stocks were up next for their $1,000 to win feature. Bill Clemens jumped into the early lead with Mark Wytaske working into the second spot. Kevin Hager and Johnny Erickson ran s/s for the fourth position for two laps until Erickson took over the fourth spot followed closely by Scott Lawrence in fifth. Up front Clemens continued to lead with Wytaske close behind as Erickson moved past Ron Host into the third spot. With two to go it was Clemens with the lead, Wytaske second, Erickson third, Lawrence fourth running nose to tail, coming to the checkers Clemens slipped up slightly with Wytaske on his outside allowing room for Erickson on the inside. Clemens came home with the fender length win over Erickson moving up to second.

The 35 lap $4,000 to win Featherlite/USMTS modified feature was up next with Corey Dripps and Kelly Shryock battling for the lead early on. Ron Schreiner, Bruce Hanford and Mike Spaulding were running in the top five early on. Schreiner was the man on the move working past Dripps for the second spot while farther back in the field there were many good two wide battles. After many charges by Schreiner for the top spot Shryock held on for the top spot and the win.
