After completing the delayed main events that were rained out Thursday night, the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt got back to action Friday with the completion of Thursday’s events followed by a complete show for the fans afterward.

Fresh off of a win in Thursday’s makeup feature, Jake Timm earned the Sybesma Graphics Pole Award for Friday night’s 40-lap nightcap with Wissota legend Shane Sabraski sharing the front row.

Both drivers have one win in the 18 USMTS feature races staged here at the Ogilvie Raceway, but it was a new face in victory lane when the checkered flag waved.

Racing his way to the front from the outside of the fourth row at the drop of the green flag, Jim Chisholm passed Timm with four laps to go when Timm relinquished the bottom groove.

Chisholm went on to win his fourth career USMTS feature and first in Ogilvie.

Looking over their hoods at a pair of lapped cars at the finish line, Chisholm nipped Timm at the finish line by less than two-tenths of a second.

The victory for the 20-year-old from Osage, Iowa, was also the first of the 2023 campaign for Skyrocket Chassis—the dirt modified machines manufactured by nine-time USMTS national champ Kelly Shryock.

Sabraski secured the third spot with Dave Cain and 12th-starting Tanners Mullens snaring fourth and fifth at the flagstand.

Rodney Sanders came from 14th to sixth, Dan Ebert wound up seventh, Zack VanderBeek earned an eighth-place paycheck, Jason Hughes nabbed ninth and Carlos Ahumada Jr. passed 12 cars to take 10th and earn the FK Rod Ends Hard Charger Award. To boot.

The action reaches a boiling point on Saturday with drivers racing for $11,000 to win the Mod Wars finale, and as much as $800 just to take the green flag in the main event.

The pits open at 4 p.m., grandstands open at 5, hot laps and qualifying begin at 6 and racing gets underway at 6:30. Also racing will be Midwest Modifieds, Street Stocks, Mod Fours and Hornets.

The Ogilvie Raceway is a high-banked 3/8-mile clay oval located less than one hour north of the twin cities on Hwy. 23, or 5 miles west of Hwy. 65, or 11 miles east from Hwy.169 in Milaca, or 1 mile east of Hwy. 47 to 1539 MN-23, Ogilvie, MN 56358.
