Scott and Joey Adler have been putting on the Father-Son show all season long, and Sunday was no exception. Scott has been virtually untouchable all year long in Sr. Sportsman Heavy, taking every feature win by ten-seconds or more. However, son Joey has had his hands full of Patrick Olsen in Jr. SSX Can. Although Joey has managed to get the upper hand in most cases, it hasn't been due to a lack of effort on Olsen's part. The two consistently break away from the pack and put on their own two-man show. This week Joey managed to grab the point for the feature and ran a perfect race, keeping Patrick at bay for his fourth feature win of the year.
One of the best races of the day was Briggs Animal Jr. where Steven Wirtz and Gavin Hallman put on a great show. The two swapped first place (and some paint) in the feature several times. On the last lap, Wirtz managed to muscle his way past Hallman in the left-hand hairpin and keep the lead for good.
Although not a competition class, the Kid Karts put on a great show each week. This week, Mitchell Yurmanovich, Zach Sullivan and Kyle Coats seemed to have the field covered, lapping most competitors during each heat race. This class is designed for five to eight year old kids, running 50cc Comer motors on smaller-sized chassis. Although only in existence for around 10 years, most of Badger's younger champions have started in this class.
This week's monsters who demolished their fields were Ryan Graham in HPV Heavy, Mike Fuchs in Yamaha Heavy, Ryan Rutzinski in Yamaha Lite, Robby Mueller in Briggs Animal Jr and Kevin Bowler in 2-cycle Jr. Sportsman.
