For the first time since it's inception the Twin Ports Twin 25's moved the venue
from the Proctor Speedway across the bay to AMSOIL Speedway in Superior, WI.
From all indications the move was the right one as a full grandstands watched
three divisions of racing on the fast and wide track. A total of 92 cars were on
hand for the one of a kind race here in the north land including 32 WISSOTA Late
Models, the stars of the show to go along with 25 Midwest Modifieds and 35 Pure
Stocks.

Racers from opposite ends of the racing spectrum won their first ever features
Friday night at AMSOIL Speedway. Late Model driver T. J. Adams of Hayward,
WI captured his first career feature and Pure Stock driver Travis Zembo of
Superior took home his first career main event checkered flag.
It was almost a surreal moment when Adams revealed he was driving the car
that his late boss at Stone Lake Oil Keane Laakson had driven and was even
wearing Laakson's helmet. Jody Bellefeuille robbed Al Uotinen of his first feature
win of the season snatching the win by inches at the line in the Modified feature.
Brother Mike Bellefeuille won his third Super Stock feature of the season after
Shawn Rivord's car gave up the ghost with eight laps remaining. Up to this point
no one had anything for Rivord.

Friday night. Two dozen of the high powered track rockets made the trip, more
than enough to put on a great show. Also on the card were the WISSOTA Super
Stocks, Midwest Modifieds and Pure Stocks.
