ARLINGTON — Another steamy night at Arlington Raceway produced some hot racing action, with Cory Probst prevailing once again in the Jack Pines Resort IMCA Hobby feature.

Probst took the lead on the seventh lap from RJ Esquedo in the flag-to-flag race. Chad Volk moved up from his No. 8 starting spot to challenge but settled for second ahead of George Motto.

The Coors Light IMCA Sport Compact feature saw Jason Bolte lead for three laps, holding off charging Justin Schletzke. The fourth time around Schletzke took over the lead and then a yellow flag came out when there was an altercation on the track with Gary Schumacher and Alan Lahr. Schumacher was sent to the pit and Schletzke took over the lead again and won with Bolte holding on for second and Dale Gatton taking third.

A last lap pass in the Olson Snowplowing and Lawn Care Outlaw feature saw Jesse Anderson in victory lane. Kris Flewelling had led from the second lap but Anderson was hot on his tail the entire distance and got the opportunity to finish the race in front of him. Flewelling took second and Craig Groebner took third.

There was a three-way battle in the Arlington State Bank IMCA Sport Modified feature as Bryan Spaude was the early leader, with Zach Davis and Joey Reimers both racing for the second spot. On the sixth lap, a yellow came out for a tire that was on the track. The cars were lined back up and now Davis was in the lead and Reimers was challenging him, but he now had Jeff Lloyd to contend with also. In the end, Davis was the winner and Reimers took second, with Lloyd finishing in third.

Zach Glaser led the first 11 laps of the Rice Companies IMCA Sprint feature. His first challenger was Matt Hasara in the 81 car but by Lap 10, Matt Johnson was making moves to get by Hasara and he did . Then two laps later Johnson and Glaser were side by side with Johnson taking the lead and win. Glaser took second and Bill Johnson had moved into third place.

The B&B Racing Chassis IMCA Stock car feature was an exciting caution free race to watch with a three-way battle for the lead. The early leader was Chris Neisen taking a commanding lead from his pole position start. By Lap 12, Ken Tietz, who had started fifth, was looking for the front and he took over the race lead.

A couple of laps later Matt Looft was in the equation but Tietz held him off. Looft tried both the high and low side to get around Tietz but Tietz did a great job blocking him until the very last lap. Tietz, Looft and Dan Mackenthun all came into Turn 4 together with Tietz leading but Looft dove underneath him as Mackenthun took the high side and Looft crossed the line first with Mackenthun in second and Tietz in third. Tim Pessek, who had been in second for over half of the race, took fourth.

The Ottomotive Tire & Repair IMCA Modified feature found Chad Porter in victory lane leading the entire distance. Trent Loverude took second, with JJ Reimers taking third. A yellow came out on lap 13 when the 74c of Clint Hatlestad got a left front flat tire. The battle of the race was actually in the back of the field between Jason Schroeder and Rick Nelson as the two kept racing side by side and shuffling spots with Schroeder taking the flag first.

Ryan Kisor found victory lane for the first time in the EZ Wash & Storage Truck Cross Feature as he started on the front row and was able to maintain the lead the entire distance to win his first feature. Cody Sievert took second and Kayla Oestreich took third.

The Jerry’s Home Quality Foods Auto Cross feature had three different leaders, with Justin McConnell leading the first lap, but the #10 of Kailynn Thul took over on the second lap. She only held on for two laps as the 30 of Nick McConnell was on the move, he had started ninth and by Lap 4 he was the leader for the remaining five laps of the race. Jack Trebesch, who had started right ahead of McConnell, followed him to the checkered flag to take second and Thul took third.
