Zielski Wins on Founders Night

Oconomowoc's Ryan Zielski won his fourth 20-lap Brewington Electric-AutoMeter Wisconsin wingLESS Sprints feature at Wilmot in a highly competitive final few laps. Burlington's Rusty Egan had taken the lead in the early going with the two battling wheel to wheel exchanging the top spot several times during the closing circuits. With less than two laps to go, Zielski got past Egan in turn one as they worked lapped traffic. Zielski went on to his second consecutive Wilmot win. C.J. Malueg of Johsburg, IL caught Egan on the final lap to score a career best ever second place finish. Egan was third. Tate Hensley of Trevor moved up from 12th on the starting grid to finish fourth. Allen Hafford of Beach Park, IL was fifth.
"The car was really tight, but I was able to get Rusty," said Zielski. "I have a great crew and sponsors. I am glad the weather held off and we were able to race. I am looking forward to two weeks(August 21) when we run for the Bill Grogan Tribute."
