Cory Crapser won the USRA Modified main event on Saturday, June 16, 2018, at the Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn.


This week the school bus races and mascot night were the featured attraction at Deer Creek Speedway. Seven schools were represented in the bus races and five school mascots competed in “Mascot Olympics” to determine their champion.

All of that and 127 cars in the five weekly divisions put on an exciting show for the huge crowd on hand. This week’s event was presented by Podien’s Power Equipment, Randy & Sandy Norby, Wagner Trucking, Adams Graphix and B&K Millright.

Jackson Hale took off from the pole for the Out-Paces USRA B-Mod feature. The race was halted on lap two for a four-car tangle that reset the field. On the start, Jackson’s older brother, Parker, stole the lead away and took off.

Nick Wagner slipped past Jackson Hale for second as Brandon Maitland and Shaun Walski raced for fourth. Parker Hale led the rest of the way to take the clean sweep for the night. Wagner finished second with Jackson Hale third. Walski ended up fourth and Maitland was fifth.


Parker Hale won the Out-Pace USRA B-Mod feature.

Brandon Hare led early in the USRA Modified feature. Brian Albrecht sat in second but passed Hare for the lead on lap two. Cory Crapser was behind the lead duo and slipped past Hare on lap four. Jacob Bleess then challenged Hare for third and made the pass on lap five.

Nate Wasmund got to fifth but got tangled up with Mark Noble to bring out the yellow as Noble went to the tail. When the green flag returned, Crapser made his move and challenged Albrecht for the lead. Crapser drove past on lap 10 and opened up the lead.

Bleess then got by Albrecht for second and tried to chase down Crapser. Joe Horgfal was on the charge from 12th and got to fourth. A yellow on lap 15 closed the pack back up. Another yellow on the start delayed the race once again.

Horgdal slipped past Albrecht on the start and took third. Bleess tried to get low on Crapser but just was not able to keep up with him. A big seven-car melee on lap 19 was the final stoppage of the race.

Crapser led, but Bleess again tried the low side to no avail. Crapser went on for his first USRA Modified win at Deer Creek and took a clean sweep too. Bleess ran second while Horgdal was third. Wasmund ended up fourth and Keith Foss raced from 14th to fifth.
