Rebounding from car troubles the past couple weeks, Kent Arment struck pay dirt, not once, but twice Sunday evening at the Casino Speedway by taking home top honors in both the WISSOTA Modified and WISSOTA Late Model features.
In WISSOTA Modified action, Arment held off last week's feature winner, Scott Ward of Watertown, over the final laps for his fourth feature win of the 2008 track season. Chris Prussman of Brookings rounded out the the top three. Ward, Arment and Ryan Engels of Arlington were the heat race winners. Scott Ward currently leads the Modified track point standings over Joel Waba by just 11 points.
In the WISSOTA Late Models, Arment continued his winning ways by out-dueling fellow Aberdeen drivers, Chad Becker and Curt Gelling to win the Late Model A-main. The heat races were won by Gelling and Arment. As a result of Sunday night's Late Model sweep, Arment extended his lead by 3 points over Gelling in the Late Model track standings. Gelling now trails Arment by 28 points.
In the WISSOTA Street Stock feature, Reed Storley of Watertown earned a hard fought victory over Watertown's Jason Marko and Wade Tirrel of White. Tirrel and Storley won the heat races. Wade Tirrel continues to lead the Street Stock track point standings by 30 points over fellow White driver, Chad Willmott.
In Cruiser action, Marlin Snell of Milbank picked up his first A-main victory at the Casino Speedway. Doug Jenner of Watertown and Dustin Holtquist of Milbank finished second and third respectively. The heat race winners were Jenner, Snell and Laurie Ward of Watertown. Marcy Rossow of Florence leads the track point standings with a 7 point advantage over Tim Nisich of Watertown.
