Hoppe and Tribble trip up Montana rivals while Keeler cruises in from Wisconsin to win at Electric City

GREAT FALLS, MT (May 25) - The city of Great Falls came to life on Saturday night with Electric City Speedway lighting up the Montana night. D.J. Keeler made the long tow from Wisconsin pay off with the Super Stock victory, while Jon Tribble and Dillon Hoppe kept their trophies in state after the checkers fell.

Keeler, a resident of Superior, WI, made the nearly 1,000-mile journey west, and still had enough left in the tank to pace the last half of the 20-lap WISSOTA Super Stock main. Keeler picked up the victory over Casey Steffenson, P.J. Popham, Beau Brown and Jon Tribble.

Tribble grabbed his first win of the season in the WISSOTA Midwest Modified main event. He moved to the point a few laps into the 20-lap race, and stayed ahead of Tyler Leach to the checkers. C.R. Eisenzimer finished third, with Michael Shure fourth and Joey Price fifth.

Belgrade racer Dillon Hoppe made his first appearance of the season at Electric City Speedway, and raced to the WISSOTA Street Stock victory. He took the lead in the early laps, and won by two seconds over Robert Petroff, Cail Tinker, Luke Zampich and Patrick Harvie.

Paul Leach picked up the IMCA Modified win on Saturday.
