Chateau fans finally get night of racing

Chateau Speedway fans and drivers have been patiently waiting to get some racing in at the track that’s been thrilling fans since 1956. Last Friday night that patience finally paid off. With clear skies and no chance of rain in the forecast, fans and drivers filled up the grounds at Lansing for a much-needed night of racing.
Highlighting the night was a pair of caution-free feature events. Skjeveland Sanitation USRA Stock Cars went caution free with Blake Adams of McIntire, Iowa taking home top honors as he outran Darin Toot of Albert Lea for the win and an extra $100 from Borderline Pest Control. Adams also had a heat win on the night with Travis Shipman of Mason City, Iowa also staking a heat win.
Manke’s Outdoor Equipment Chateau Hornets ran caution free with three different drivers swapping the lead during the race. Mike Chadderdon of Faribault ended up taking the win over early leader Bailey Wolff of Janesville. David Balik of Fort Atkinson, Iowa took the class’s lone heat win.
The track’s new class this year — Power 96 USRA Hobby Stocks — was lead in its first night out by Brady Krohnberg, who scored wins in his heat as well as the feature. After starting near the front in his heat, he had to work from row five in the feature to get the win. Also taking a heat win on the night was Greg Lammers of Owatonna.
Kevin Johnson of Adams out-dueled Scott Demmer of Ellendale for top honors in the Double M Transport USRA B Mods. Demmer lead for the first couple of laps before Johnson took over the lead on lap five and lead the rest of the way. Gage Motl of Owatonna, Spenser Stock of Racine, and Jessie Antiporek of Dexter took the class’s three heat wins.
It was a battle between brothers in the Hanson Tire WISSOTA Midwest Modified Feature as Kadden Kath of Ellendale held off Kobie Kath of Owatonna for top honors. Christopher Deno of Kasson and Greg Pfeifer, Jr. of Austin grabbed the class’s heat wins.
Joe Ludeman of Grand Meadow held off constant pressure from Steve Wetzstein of West Concord to claim the French’s Repair USRA A Mod feature as he lead flag to flag for the win. Ludeman took home a heat win as well giving him a sweep on the night. The class’s other heat win went to Ryan Wetzstein of West Concord.
Action will pick up again next Friday night at Chateau Speedway with the first green flag scheduled for 7:15 p.m.
