Zeitner Triumphs In Huset’s Late Model Run

BRANDON, S.D. – Justin Zeitner, Zach Olivier, Eric Faber and Dustin Gulbrandson captured victories on Friday evening during C & B Operations Cheater’s Day at Huset’s Speedway.

For Zeitner, Faber and Gulbrandson it marked their first feature triumph at the track this season while Olivier posted his fourth win of the year at Huset’s Speedway — only one shy of tying the most for any driver this year.

Zeitner was stout throughout the 30-lap Tri-State Late Models main event during the series’ second-and-final visit of the season to Huset’s Speedway. Zeitner survived a handful of cautions, but was smooth on restarts en route to winning by 1.934 seconds.

Chad Olsen was the runner up with 11th-starting Gary Brown Jr. rounding out the podium. JC Wyman placed fourth and Jordan Heiman was fifth.

Blair Nothdurft, Zeitner, Nick Beyenhof and Olsen were the heat race winners.

Olivier advanced from fourth to garner his fourth Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks victory of the season. Tim Dann finished second with Colby Klaassen ending third, Matt Steuerwald fourth and Jayke Glanzer fifth.

Klaassen and Brandon Ferguson each won a heat race.

Faber capitalized on starting on the pole to score the hobby stocks win. Jared Nytroe advanced from seventh to second place with Adam Chernotik finishing third, Jackson Mulder fourth and Clint Erickson fifth.

Nytroe and Faber posted heat race triumphs.

Gulbrandson was the deepest starting feature winner as he rallied from 17th to victory lane during the 15-lap sport mods main event. Cadyn Wessels earned a runner-up result with Jason Bradley placing third, Nick Brady fourth and Landon Krohn fifth.

Krohn, Logan Fitzpatrick and Brady recorded heat race wins.

Championship weekend continues on Saturday with sprint cars returning to the Huset’s Speedway program.

The Buffalo Wild Wings Northern Outlaw Sprint Association and Casey’s 410 Sprint Cars presented by Big Frig, the Nordstrom’s Automotive Late Model Street Stocks and the Wyffels Hybrids RaceSaver Sprint Car Series are in action.
