Reaves Makes It A Streak In Minnesota

ELKO, Minn. — Max Reaves (No. 18 Cook Out Toyota) scored his second consecutive win and his second victory at Elko Speedway in as many years in Saturday’s Shore Lunch 250 Presented by Dutch Boy.

Reaves finished 5.432 seconds in front of current ARCA Menards Series championship points leader Jake Bollman (No. 20 Nitro Motorsports Toyota).

Bollman’s runner-up finish matches his career best; Bollman also finished second at Daytona International Speedway in February and Michigan International Speedway in June. It’s Bollman’s sixth top-five finish of the season.

Local favorite Ty Fredrickson (No. 25 Rack Shack BBQ Toyota) finished third in his second career ARCA Menards Series start; Fredrickson, whose grandparents are former owners of Elko Speedway, finished fifth at Elko in 2025.

Taylor Reimer (No. 77 Fre Nicotine Chevrolet) finished fourth, her second consecutive top-five finish; she also finished fourth last Saturday night at Berlin Raceway.

Jason Kitzmiller (No. 97 A.L.L. Construction / Carter CAT Chevrolet) finished fifth, his first top-five finish since he finished third at Daytona in 2025; it’s also Kitzmiller’s first career top-five finish on a short track.

Isabella Robusto (No. 55 Yahoo Toyota) finished sixth despite recurring transmission issues on restarts that resulted in losing several positions and bouncing off the outside wall. Robusto now has six top-ten finishes in her last seven starts.

Thomas Annunziata (No. 70 JBL Toyota) started from the Sioux Chief PowerPEX Pole but faded through the field to finish seventh.

Willie Mullins (No. 3 CW Metals Ford) finished eighth, his first top-ten finish of the season and his best finish since he was seventh at Toledo Speedway in October, 2025.

Takuma Koga (No. 12 IKEDO Toyota) finished ninth, his first career ARCA Menards Series top-ten finish.

Reigning ARCA Menards East Bounty Rookie of the Year Austin Vaughn (No. 91 Tool Mart Inc. Chevrolet) finished tenth, his first career ARCA Menards Series top-ten finish.

Landon S. Huffman (No. 28 PRG Chevrolet) finished 14th in his ARCA Menards Series debut despite leading 130 laps on the night, more than any other driver.
