Rain results in Friday doubleheader at Ogilvie

With heat races in the book, the remainder of the program for the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt was rained out at the Ogilvie Raceway on Thursday night, resulting in a doubleheader Friday on the second night of Mod Wars.

The remaining portion of Thursday’s opening night show will be finished Friday starting at 5 p.m. The pit and grandstand gates will open at 3.

The top eight drivers in passing points following five heat races are Dereck Ramirez, Tanner Mullens, Rodney Sanders, Jake Timm, Eric Lamm, Tyler Wolff, Ryan Gierke and Brandon Dolman. They will redraw for their starting positions in the first four rows of the Summit Racing Equipment “A” Feature.

If you have a Thursday night wristband for the grandstands, bring it with you plus $10 for all the Friday racing.

Following the completion of Thursday’s program which pays $3,000 to win the feature race, the complete show originally slated for Friday night will tackle the high banks of Ogilvie Raceway, with live entertainment after the races.

Summit USMTS Drivers are racing for $5,000 to win on Friday and a top prize of $11,000 on Saturday.

On Saturday, the pits open at 4 p.m., grandstands open at 5, hot laps and qualifying begin at 6 and racing gets underway at 6:30.

The Ogilvie Raceway is a high-banked 3/8-mile clay oval located less than one hour north of the twin cities on Hwy. 23, or 5 miles west of Hwy. 65, or 11 miles east from Hwy.169 in Milaca, or 1 mile east of Hwy. 47 to 1539 MN-23, Ogilvie, MN 56358.
