Eagle River’s Dustin White had a big night, scoring a pair of B-Modified feature wins last Tuesday at Eagle River Speedway.

After winning the makeup feature that was washed out the previous week, White charged to the lead in the main event to complete the double.

 In the makeup race, White stormed into the lead on the opening lap and never looked back in the yellow-free race.

In the night’s later B-Mod main, White started eighth, and worked his way up to second by lap five. White squeezed past Dustin Kangas for the lead on lap eight and kept that top spot throughout a handful of caution periods.

Pulaski’s “Hot Rod” Snellenberger bumped his career IMCA Stock Car feature win total to 234 by picking up that division’s feature.

Wisconsin’s winningest driver in the division started sixth on the grid in the 20-lap contest. Initially, it appeared that front row starter Jonathan Miller had the feature win in the bag. The Eagle River driver sprinted into the lead at the drop of the green of the race. Miller wasted little time building up a decent cushion between himself and the rest of the field.

Snellenberger caught up with Miller after six laps and pressured Miller for several circuits before flying past Miller on the high side on lap 12.

Snellenberger kept all challengers at bay and cruised to victory in the caution-free event. Miller hung on to claim second place. Last week’s feature winner Ryan Glembin took third, followed by Dustin White and Jason Zdroik rounding out the top five finishers.

For hometown driver Dave Bennett, the 2025 season has been one of mechanical breakdowns and much frustration for the veteran racer. Bennett sought redemption and got it here last Tuesday. Bennett outraced fellow front row starter Guy Carley into the lead at the drop of the green of the USRA Late Model feature. Bennett kept his distance from his foes and went on to win in the caution-free event. Stockholm’s Lucas Peterson, Michigan’s Jesse Aho, Eagle River’s Carley and Shawano’s Aaron Reivitis rounded out the top five finishers.

Escanaba, Michigan’s Chase Richer survived heavy pressure from Minnesotan Tyler Pelofske but hung on to the lead and won the caution free, 600 Micro Sprint feature.

Twin Lakes, Michigan’s Cooper Aho grabbed the lead on the final circuit when leader Addison Dishaw spun and grabbed the Pro 300 Micro Sprint feature win. Manitowish Waters driver Archer Peter scored the Semi-Pro 300 Micro Sprint feature.

The Street Stock feature resembled more of a demolition derby than an oval track race. The contest, which started 15 contestants, only had seven running after the checkered flag flew mercifully. The contest was marred by numerous caution flags. Sugar Camp’s Jason Eisel kept his nose clean and scored the feature win. He held off his daughter, Hope Eisel, for the win. Rhinelander’s Josh Joslin, Jeremy Joslin and Blake Joslin were third, fourth and fifth.

Merrill’s Bobby Hommerding led every lap in the caution-free, Pure Stock feature while that division’s makeup feature from last week went to Tomahawk’s Trevor Schumann.

The 77-car field was comprised of drivers from three different states: Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota.

Weekly Tuesday night racing resumes on Tuesday, July 29 with a kids’ coin and candy toss as an added attraction. The first green flag flying at 7 p.m.
