(Seymour, WI) July 29, 2022 Race Report- Outagamie Speedway Race Report- Nick Buckarma outlasted Clint Forstner to score his first feature win of the season. 108 racers checked to do battle at Outagamie Speedway powered by EWSC.

Clint Forstner drew the pole for the $750 to-win IMCA Stock Car feature. He led until Nick Buckarma used the outside groove to slip by up top on the 3rd lap. Forstner went back to work down low, retaking the lead on the 12th lap. The duo raced side by side the remainder of the event with Kyle Frederick a close third. With 2 laps remaining Buckarma was able to find the momentum up top to grab the top spot once again. Buckarma held on by a fender to score a thrilling win. Forstner was second, Frederick took third, Wyatt Block placed fourth and Brett Wenzel completed the top five.
In IMCA Sport Mod action it was Skyler Woods taking command early on as last week's winner Jake Carpenter worked his way through the field from row 6. A caution on the 10th circuit erased sizable advantage for Woods. Carpenter restarted third, immediately took second and set his on the leader. With Woods running the cushion, Carpenter began to navigate the low groove. On the final corner Carpenter threaded the needle down low to slip by Woods and score his 3rd win a row. Woods was forced to settle for second, Cory Kemkes stayed in the title fight with a third-place run, State point leader Cole Czarneski was fourth and Ryan Besaw placed fifth.

The contest went green to checker.
