BRANDON, S.D. — Mark Dobmeier, Cory Yeigh and Justin Henderson were victorious on Sunday evening during the Huset’s Speedway season finale.
Dobmeier seized the $7,500-to-win Buffalo Wild Wings Northern Outlaw Sprint Ass’n and Casey’s 410 Sprint Cars presented by Big Frig main event triumph while Yeigh scored the Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks victory and Henderson garnered the Midwest Sprint Touring Series and Midwest Power Series A Main win during The Bull Haulers Brawl presented by Folkens Bros. Trucking.
Additionally, Brooke Tatnell (Casey’s 410 Sprint Cars presented by Big Frig) and Zach Olivier (Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks) were crowned Huset’s Speedway track champions.
The Buffalo Wild Wings Northern Outlaw Sprint Association and Casey’s 410 Sprint Cars presented by Big Frig 30-lap feature event was a fierce one as Austin McCarl led for the first 23 laps through moments of thick traffic and close calls on the cushion.
As McCarl was in traffic on lap 24, runner-up Aaron Reutzel made a slide job attempt in turns three and four. Heading into turn three while running three wide, Reutzel slid in front of a lapped car before his right rear tire made contact with McCarl’s left-rear tire in turn four. The impact spun McCarl around to bring out the caution and it flattened Reutzel’s left-rear tire, forcing him to the pit area for a new tire.
Dobmeier, who started the feature 10th and had climbed to third, inherited the lead and pulled away to win by 1.568 seconds as Justin Henderson and Tatnell duked it out for not only the runner-up position, but the track championship. While Henderson outlasted Tatnell for second place, Tatnell became the first Australian born champion in Huset’s Speedway history by narrowly edging Henderson in the championship standings by a mere three points.
Jack Dover rallied from 13th to fourth and Kaleb Johnson rounded out the top five.
Yeigh advanced from the eighth starting position to take the lead on lap 12 and he overcame an incident on the final scheduled lap to record his second Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks triumph of the season.
Spenser Kalass held onto the top spot throughout the first 11 laps before Yeigh drove into the lead by riding the high side around the track. The fourth-and-final caution of the race occurred on the scheduled final lap when Mike Chaney made contact with Yeigh entering the bottom of turn three. Both drivers spun and Yeigh reclaimed the position after Chaney was sent to the rear for causing the incident.
Yeigh hit his marks following the green-white-checkered restart for the victory by .403 seconds. Tim Dann was second with Olivier rounding out the podium from the 12th starting spot. Eric Moser posted a fourth-place result and Kalass placed fifth.
Henderson led all 25 laps of the 360ci winged sprint car main event to sweep the weekend at Huset’s Speedway for the Midwest Sprint Touring Series and Midwest Power Series action.
A red on lap 18 and a caution one lap after the restart were the only stoppages throughout the feature, which was won by .727 seconds.
Matt Juhl finished second with Riley Goodno placing third from the 10th starting position. Brooke Tatnell advanced from 14th to fourth and Dover hustled from 22nd to fifth.
