TNT Speedway Hot Happenings |
Rain
Washes Away Miller Night at TNT

On what otherwise turned out to be a decent night, a
20-minute torrent centered right over TNT Speedway
in the six o’clock hour washed away Miller Beer of
the Northwoods night.
Though the rain stopped and conditions became
pleasant around 6:30, the heavy downpours received
in the storm rendered the track unraceable.
The race was to have been the second-to-last point
night in the 2008 championship. So next Saturday’s
Season Championship night is sure to be interesting
as three classes have tight point battles.
The tightest of them all is in the ASCI Truck class,
which will make its fourth stop to TNT for the
summer. There Birnamwood’s Scott Van Prooyen has a
two-point lead over Forrest Crandall and leads Robin
Procknow by only four.
Lac du Flambeau’s John Johnson will try for his
third TNT Bomber championship in the last four
seasons next Saturday. His first two track titles
were won by narrow margins and a third would be no
exception. He leads Argonne’s Todd Brass by just
seven points.
Seven is also the lead for Bruce Crossing,
Michigan’s Jordan Kurtti in the WISSOTA Street
Stocks. Though he has been far and away the most
dominant driver in the class with seven feature
wins, Kurtti decided to skip last Saturday. That has
put Rhinelander’s Dave Williams within shouting
distance if any mechanical problems creep up.
Eagle River’s Bruce Belland will likely only need to
start the feature to wrap up the WISSOTA Midwest Mod
title. He leads Rhinelander’s Will Roffers by 17.
Meanwhile Eagle River’s Bill Martin can claim his
first career track title rather easily. He leads
Jason Isaacson by 37 points and can clinch the
championship with a second place finish or better in
the heats.
The answers to all the track championship questions
will be given this coming Saturday at TNT. Hot Laps
begin at 7:00 PM, with racing at 7:45.
One week after four great finishes at TNT Speedway,
the WISSOTA Midwest Mods and the TNT Stingers
provided a couple more nailbiters on Yellow Book
night at the track.
Terry Stebbeds of
Clearwater Lake wrestled back the lead in the final corner to take
the WISSOTA Amsoil Dirt Track Series, Midwest Modified division win.
Jason Isaacson from Merrill held off two late charges from point
leader Bill Martin to capture his seventh Stinger feature.
Boulder Junction’s Mark Schuenemann earned his second win of the
season in the WISSOTA Street Stocks and Cr
Stebbeds Steals Mod Win

The grounds of TNT Speedway offers full concessions, souvenirs, great food and drink at
reasonable prices, and clean and modern restroom facilities. Giveaways for the fans,
autograph sessions, rides in races cars for the kids, plenty of racing action make TNT the
Place to Be every Saturday night.
WISSOTA sanctioned
Midwest Modifieds and Streetstocks highlight the weekly program, and the TNT Bombers, and
the 4 cylinder Stingers add tons of excitement to the night. If you have
never been to TNT Speedway before, you need to do it! Easy to find, the track is
located right on Highway 45 just six miles south of Three Lakes.
The 1/3 mile high banked clay oval opened in May of 1995. Once a
vacant forty acre parcel of land, TNT Speedway is a true labor of love which was built by
the owners, friends, family, sponsors, race fans, and the racers themselves. The race
track grounds include full concession stands, a VIP Deck for sponsors, souvenir booths,
clean modern restrooms, bleacher and picnic table seating for the fans, and a dynamite
race track with high banked turns to keep the racing action right in front of the fans.
The "pits" are located outside of the infield, which allows the fans a
completely unobstructed view of the entire track. Daring passes, rollovers, crashes and
plenty of high speed action await fans each night.
Fans will find a great variety of food and drink, souvenirs, prize giveaways, a covered
pavilion area, and often, in the chilly fall season, a campfire to gather around after the
races. As always, the Rutzen family and the entire staff invite you to spend your Saturday
Nights at TNT Speedway, and promise to do everything in their power to ensure you a
dynamite night of family fun and excitement.
