Todd Lehr of Genoa City captured the 20-lap Meyer Services Wisconsin Wingless Sprints presented by the IRA feature in the new group's inaugural appearance.
"My crew did a great job working on setting and re-setting the car," Lehr said. "If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have gotten the win."

Jake Kouba of Minneapolis, Minnesota was third, Bristol's Chris Klemko fourth and Salem's George Gaertner Jr. fifth.
