Wissota Late Model Challenge Series
Challenge Series Hits Red Cedar, Cedar Lake This Weekend
Friday, August 17th the Wollak Construction WISSOTA Late Model Challenge Series presented by QA1 is back in action and headed to Wisconsin for two big nights of WISSOTA Late Model action.
First up is the 2nd annual Duane Mahder Memorial race at Red Cedar Speedway in Menomonie, WI. The event dedicated to Duane Mahder won honors last year as WISSOTA's "Event of the Year" and is set to once again pay the winner $5,555 to win and $455 to start the main event. The event is sponsored by Seubert Calf Ranches and Serv-Pro of Barron, Dunn, and Rusk Counties.
Saturday night the series heads to Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, WI. For the first time since 2005, WISSOTA Late Models will battle it out for a shot at the $2,500 to win main event. All Late Model drivers will be required to be WISSOTA legal for the event including the existing WISSOTA tire rule. Please contact Bill Engelstad (bill@wissota.org) for questions regarding WISSOTA rules.

John Kaanta is in 3rd place, but will likely miss an event or two after an unfortunate off track incident that sidelined him for several weeks. Steve Laursen and Lance Matthees complete the top 5.
