After only 25 nights of racing throughout the summer the 2010 racing season is quickly coming to the end. Up next week is 2 nights of Motor Magic at Nodak Speedway and then possibly Jamestown Speedway for the 2 nights of the Stock Car Stampede.  In those 25 nights Steven has had plenty of seat time between the Modified (20 nights), Latemodel (8 nights) and the #14 Stock Car (7 nights). 7 WINS, 19 top 5 and 25 top 10.

Crazy night of racing in Mandan. Steven was on the track 5 times between the 2 cars. First race was the latemodel make up feature from the rained out Governers race, which he finished 9th. Then on to the regular nights races. Finished third in Mod heat and 2nd in the Latemodel heat. Latemodel feature was up first and the #11 finished  8th. Mod feature brought another win for the season even with a broken left upper control arm and right rear shock after jumping over the edge of the track on the front stretch a few too many times.

Nodak Speedway finally got back to racing now that the amazing new grandstands is completed. On opening night finished 1st in the heat and then took home the trophy in the feature.

Dacotah speedway in Mandan held the makeup feature from the Governer's race rained out the week before. The #11 managed to come across the line in 2nd even with a broken left tie-rod. In the regular nights action Steven tallied up another heat race win. Feature was started 6th row outside and come checkered flag he had moved up to 4th.

NLRA tour started in Jamestown this past Saturday and at 2:30 Saturday Steven decided to make the trip to get in some racing. Ended up being a decent decision as he finished first in his heat and 2nd in the feature.

NLRA tour night 2 was back home and the mods ran also. The #11 modified took home the heat win and ended up 4th in a lap shortened feature as they went over the time limit. In the latemodel Steven didn't fair so well finishing 4th in the heat and 11th in the feature. It was a night of VERY rough driving by a lot of the participants with a lot of torn up equipment. So though 11th is not an ideal finishing position, just finishing this race was an accomplishment.
The Williston and Dickinson portions of the tour were skipped to get some farming done but the final night in Mandan both cars should be in action as they are also having the make up feature for the latemodels from the Governors Race.

The ND Governor's Stock Car Classic was held this past weekend at Dacotah Speedway in Mandan. The only true winner of the weekend was Mother Nature. Saturday nights show was postponed until Sunday afternoon after only getting in a few heat races due to HEAVY rain. Mid-afternoon is not the best time to race but surprisingly the track crew provided a fairly racey track. Steven's modified heat race was the first race onto the track for the day. Steven had the fasted lap of the race at 66.891 MPH on his way to winning the heat. The first Latemodel heat race onto the track had a battle of the #11's as it was a battle with Jeremy Keller for most of the race. Keller was able to pull ahead leaving Steven to place second.

Come feature time the track was pretty rubbered up with not alot of passing. In the Modified race the #11 was up front the whole race and ended up coming across the line in 3rd. The Latemodel race only lasted a few laps for Steven as he was caught up in a spin. Though there was no real visible damage to the car it became apparent upon the restart that there were issues when Steven flew off of corner 3 with no brakes ending his race.

Sunday's portion of the show got started about an hour late which ultimately caused the NONE of the features to be able to be run before the races were called due to severe storms coming through. In the Modified heat race Steven finished 2nd and in the Latemodel heat race he finished 3rd.

Up next is Nodak Speedway's opening night. FINALLY back on our home track.  

July 31 & August 1 - Govenor's Classic in Mandan at Dacotah Speedway.  Mod & Latemodel in action.

Aug 8. - Opening night of Nodak Speedway

The LONG week of racing wrapped up Friday night at Dacotah Speedway in Mandan, ND. Steven raced 7 nights since he pulled double duty running both the Mod and #14 Fyllsvold Stock Car. The Stock Car brought a couple of feature wins - Mandan on the 11th and Dickinson on the 15th. While there are no feature win trophies added to the collection, Steven made the feature in all but 1 of the nights he was on the tour with the Mod. With 70+ cars at all stops of the tour making the features was an achievement in it self. The #14 Stock Car ended up 7th in points for the week and the #11 ended up 13th in the Modified points.

Dacotah Speedway and the North Dakota Governor's Stock Car Classic is probably our next stop on July 31st/August 1st. Both the Modified and Latemodel will be in action.

Steven had a decent night on the track finishing 2nd in the feature. Renegade RaceCars had a great night finishing 1-2-3 as the #243 of Randy Conway won, Steven was 2nd in the #14 of Fyllesvold Racing and #24 of Kelly Henderson was 3rd. Modified portion of tour starts tomorrow in Mandan. As of right now plans are to also pilot the #14 the rest of the week

Yes that is right, STOCK CAR. Steven is piloting a Stock Car for the Tour. He finished the feature in 12th.
