By Janis Weigel

July 23, 1999; Unity, WI. - Friday night races at MHR, Inc. were sponsored by All Car Automotive and M&I Bank. This coming Friday nights races will be sponsored by Mac Tools.

Current WISSOTA Modified point leader Troy Kuyoth (#80) made his way to the winners circle after taking top honors in feature action this evening.

Mike Bauer held the lead in the WISSOTA Super Stock Feature. Lance Leu, running in second held off Scott Johnson for eight laps. Getting past Leu, Johnson gradually made his way toward Bauer. Running side by side in comer two, both cars got tangled up with each other. Johnson left the track with a flat tire and a caution.

With eight laps remaining, an exciting ending was in store as Lance Leu grabbed the lead from Bauer on the restart. Paul Lieders and Lonnie Leu closed in on the top two. Racing tight through corner three, resulted in Lieders and Leu edging past Bauer. With four laps remaining, Lonnie passed Lieders and began to track down Lance. Charging through comer four to take the checkered flag, Lonnie trying to take the lead made contact with Lance causing both cars to get loose. Taking advantage of the situation, Lieders blasted past both cars to take the win and a cheering crowd off their seats. Lonnie recovered to take second, Lance 3rd, Bauer 4th and Mark Stender 5th.

At the start of the WISSOTA Street Stock feature, Rod Herman and point leader Kevin Bogdanovic's cars slammed into each other. Bogdanovic was pushed into the wall hard and was unable to continue. At the restart, Todd Lindner led the way followed by Larry Dassow, Dave Teatz and Chris Lindner.

Making his way toward the front, Kevin Adams passed C. Lindner in lap eight for fourth place, Teatz in lap ten for the third spot, and Dassow the next lap around for second. Lindner held a sizable lead with three laps remaining. Chris Oertel was called on a caution before Lindner could take the white flag. Tightening up the pack for a green, white, checkered end. Adams moved swiftly past Lindner for the lead and the feature win. Lindner 2nd, Dassow 3rd, Ralph Schultz with a sixth row start claimed 4th and Teatz rounded out the top five.

Butch Oertel grabbed the quick lead in the WISSOTA Modified feature. Troy Kuyoth, running second moved into the lead the next lap around. Running high, Oertel racing side by side with Jerry Weigel drifted high and hit the wall hard. With two right side flat tires Oertel was unable to continue.

Seventeen straight laps of non-stop action would be held to the end. With a sixth row start, Scott Duval charged through traffic, overtaking Jeff Spacek for fourth and Brad Seehafer for third. Spacek moved in fourth, passing Seehafer in lap eleven. With the checkered flag out, Kuyoth grabbed the win. Coming through comer four making contact with Weigels car, Duval slipped past for 2nd, Weigel 3rd, Spacek 4th and Seehafer completed the top five finishers.
