By Chad Adamson

MONTEVIDEO, MN (May 10) - A total of 70 cars were in the pits for the 2024 season opener at Fiesta City Speedway Friday night, May 10.

WISSOTA Dirt Track Series winners included Kevin Adams, David Simpson, Mike Jans, Jerik Stabler, and Bailey Rosch.

Canadian driver David Simpson came all the way from Thunder Bay, Ontario to race in Montevideo and was the early leader of the WISSOTA Midwest Modified feature. Blake Adams took over the top spot with four laps to go, but the lead was short-lived, as Adams' car went off the track in turn three on the next lap when something broke on his car. This gave the lead back to Simpson. Derek Rieck challenged Simpson for the lead during the final two laps, but Simpson came away with the win, his first at Fiesta City Speedway. Rieck, Matt Everts, Benjamin Beekman and Randy Klein were top-five finishers.

Kolton Brauer took the lead to begin the WISSOTA Street Stock feature. Mike Jans moved out front with five laps to go and held off Zachary Flickinger to get the victory. Josh Long completed his charge from 18th to finish third, ninth-starter Maria Broksieck was fourth and Ty Schuler completed the top five.

Bailey Rosch led the entire WISSOTA Super Stock feature for his first win at Fiesta City Speedway. Travis Scott and Stewart Schipke were the top three finishers in the feature.

Jake Knapper was the early leader of the WISSOTA Modified feature. Kevin Adams got by on lap two and drove on to get his first Modified win at Fiesta City Speedway. His only other win at Fiesta City Speedway came in the Street Stock division in 1999. Eighth-starter Nate Heinrich, Knapper, ninth-starter Gerald Thorstad and Aaron Sowers were top-five finishers.

Bradley Rossow took the lead at the beginning of the WISSOTA Hornet feature, before Jerik Stabler drove into the top spot on lap three. Stabler led the rest of the way for his first win at Fiesta City Speedway. Brady Albertson, Kole Kampsen, Bradley Rossow, Adam VanDerostyne rounded out the top five.

In the track’s Pure Stock class, Tad Peterson was the early leader. Coltyn Schuler got by Peterson on lap two and went on to get the feature win.
