Also in action on Tuesday June 16th at Cottage Grove Speedway was the Quality RV Repair Hornets. They would play the role of the support division to the IMCA Modifieds. They would have a strong contingent of eighteen cars in attendance for the rare midweek appearance.
Marcola's Brandon Letsom would seize the race lead on lap one in his Letsom Racing #23 Toyota Echo. He would be besieged by several cars trying to take the position from him but managed to keep them all in check. By the end of the race Brandon Letsom would be victorious to win his second race of 2015.
