Brian Beale Takes Late Model Win
Brian Beale edged Zack Riddle to win the 30 lap feature for the NASCAR Late Models.
Riddle outpaced Beale to take the early lead followed by Dale Nottestad and Bobby Wilberg. The top four wasted no time in building a sizeable lead over the fifth place car of Rusty Hansen.
After ten laps Beale was applying heavy pressure on Riddle for the lead while Wilberg was passing Nottestad for third. On lap 14 Beale moved to the inside of Riddle and took a slight lead at the half-way mark. This allowed Wilberg to join the mix and make it a three car fight.
With 12 laps to go Beale increased his lead to two car lengths over Riddle. Just when it appeared Riddle was closing the gap, Beale would increase his advantage coming out of turn two. Beale was able to maintain his lead, but it was down to a car length with 5 laps to go. Riddle continued to close the gap and with two laps to go was on Beale’s rear bumper.
But despite Riddle’s best efforts, he wasn’t able to take the top spot away from Beale. Wilberg finished third followed by Nottestad and Shaun Scheel.
Pat Richgels was fastest in qualifying with a lap of 18.721 (96.149 mph). It was his first-ever fast time at Madison. Bobby Wilberg won the Dash. Wilberg and Zack Riddle were the heat winners.

Andy Wangrow and Mike Taylor led the field to the green flag with Taylor jumping out to the lead with Bryan Hellenbrand up to second followed by Rick Coppernoll. On lap 3 Coppernoll pulled to the outside of Hellenbrand and passed him for second and then took the lead when he passed Taylor on the back shoot. On lap 5 Scott Riedner worked his way around Hellenbrand for second, but was still several lengths behind the leader.
At the half-way mark Coppernoll’s lead was being challenged by both Riedner and Gary Hellenbrand. On lap 12 Gary Hellenbrand took the lead coming out of turn four with Coppernoll refusing to let him get away as the two ran side by side before the they made contact coming out of turn four bringing out the caution on lap 15 sending both cars to the rear of the field.
This meant Riedner and Bobby Frisch would move up to the front row for the restart. Frisch jumped out to the lead before surrendering it to Riedner and Dave Edwards. With two laps to go Frisch worked his way back to the front with Riedner as the two were side by side before a spin back in the pack brought out the caution flag.

Scott Riedner was fast time with a lap of 20.078 (89.650 mph). Gary Hellenbrand won the six lap Dash. Heat winners were Bobby Frisch and Dave Edwards.
Steve Dickson Best of the Bandits

With fifteen laps to go Dickson’s lead was nearly two seconds over Bredeson and Rich Schniderling. It was a great race behind Dickson and he couldn’t have been happier as it allowed him to build his lead.
With three laps to go both Bredeson and Schinderling were closing the gap on Dickson, but time was running out. The Ring of Fire belonged to Dickson who picked up his first win of the season. Bredeson, Schinderling, Nick Schmidt, and Dave Schmidt completed the top five.

Chase Wangsness and Robbie Rucks brought the sixteen car field to the green flag. Wangsness took the early lead with Michael Guderski taking the top spot one lap later. The caution flag came out on the next lap when two cars made contact with the wall in turn two.
On the restart Wangsness and Guderski raced side by side for the lead before two cars got together coming out of turn four bringing out the caution flag. Following the restart Guderski maneuvered his way past Wangsness for the lead On lap 5 Jevin Guralaski passed Robbie Rucks for third then took down Wangsness for second. A spin on lap 8 brought out the caution flag.
Guderski brought the field back to green and maintained the lead over Guralski, Rucks, Karter Stark, and Alex Hartwig as these five pulled away from the field. On lap 11 Guralski worked his way past Guderski for the lead. But Hartwig was on the move and with one lap to go pulled to the outside of Guralski and edged him at the line by .005 seconds to get the win. Completing the top five were Guderski, Stark, and Rucks.

Klinger grabbed the early lead over Spry while Dan Bishop grabbed third then passed Spry for second and then took the lead over Klinger on lap 5. Sean Worman moved up to second on lap 6 while Trevor Chilson was on the move in the fourth position. On lap 8 Chilson made contact with the car of Klinger sending it spinning and bringing out the caution flag. Both cars were sent to the back of the field.
Bishop and Worman broke away from the pack when the green flag waved, but Kevin Beyer wasn’t going to allow the pair to run away as he joined the leaders as they were weaving their way through lapped traffic. As Worman and Beyer were fighting it out for second it allowed Bishop to increase his lead and race his way to victory lane. Worman, Beyer, Carteron, and Spry rounded out the top five.
“I tried to be as patient as I could. I saw an opportunity and took it,” said Bishop who picked up his first ever win at Madison.
