Central Wisconsin Raceway Crowns its Track Champions

After a summers worth of racing in Unity WI. The victors were able to lift their helmets and cheer, for they are the 2011 track champions.
These proud races are as follows:
2011 Track Champions
Modifieds: Steve Bangart, Auburndale, WI.
Super Stocks: Terry Kroening, Colby, WI.
MidWest Mods: Nathan Thums, Wausau, WI.
Street Stocks: Ralph Stark, Loyal, WI.
Pure Stocks: Duane Leu, Stetsonville, WI.
Hornets: Mark Ryskoski, Medford, WI.

The nights feature races started out with the Pure Stock class with Duane Leu on the pole and Ray Karl Jr. following close beside him. At the green flag Leu quickly stepped out into the lead. Gunard Hoogland Started 4th and slowly worked his way up to 2nd but was never in contention to catch Leu. At the checkers it was Leu followed by Hoogland.

The next group up to run for the Championship points was the Wissota Midwest Modifieds. Nate Thums lead the pack to the green with Nick Lindner on his side. Once the green flag flew it was Thums and Lindner out in front. Linder began to slow allowing Andy Karl and Jimmy Barttelt move into 2nd and 3rd. Lindner continued his free fall towards the back as Nick Kochler raced his way forward from 11th. At the checkers it was Thums in first with Karl holding off Barttelt for 2nd.

The Wissota Street Stocks hit the track with Ralph Start out front, followed in second by Cody Kummer . Once the Green flew Kummer jumped to the lead followed Jared Lindner and Nick Wojcik. Stark followed close behind until a late race spin and contact with the corner one wall sent Stark to the pits. When the checkered flag waved it was Kummer followed closely by Lindner.

The Wissota Super Stocks were up next to do battle and Terry Kroening lead the charge with Scott Geiger on his outside. On the green flag Kroening took the lead with Matt Mceathron following close behind. Randy Spacek worked his way around Geiger for 3rd and took off after the leaders.As Kroening and Geiger fell back it was up to Spacek to go for the lead. Spacek had captured the lead and pulled away from the pack as the checkered flag flew to be followed by Kroening.

The Wissota Modified feature was lead by Steve bangart on pole and Scott Vesley on the outside pole. Bangart took the early lead never looking back at his pursuers. Behind him it was Vesley, Kevin Rogers and Paul Niznik battling for 2nd. A late race scrape with the wall for Niznik and a spin for Vesley allowed Jared Loos and Jeff Spacek to catch Rogers. Loos and Spacek worked their way past Rogers in the closing laps but were no match for Bangart. At the checkers it was Bangart followed by Loos.

The Main event for the night was the previously rained out Hornet Special with the winner taking home 150$in prize money.
Lined up for the green flag was Mark Ryskoski on pole and Alan Hall on the outside pole. With Hall and Ryskoski battling for the lead throughout the race Duane Leu and Scott Westaby slowly worked their way up from 7th and 8th into the 3rd and 4th positions. When the checkered flag flew it was Ryskoski in the lead followed closely by Hall.
The management and staff of CWR would like to thank our great fans and Sponsors for their support this year and welcome you all back in 2012 for another great season of Dirt Track Racing.
