Bjerkeset moved into the lead on lap three before Speckman regained the advantage two laps later. A caution gave Speckman another opportunity out front, with Bjerkeset and Tim Pessek joining him in side-by-side racing around the track. The race was stopped near halfway when Brent Uecker’s car experienced a small fire. Bjerkeset took advantage of the ensuing restart to regain the lead, but Eckblad was making his way forward from the 11th starting position. The St. Peter driver hugged the bottom of the track to work his way into the top spot, then held off the competition over the final six laps to take the checkered flag. It was Eckblad’s second EQ Cylinder Heads Northern Region victory of the season, with both [Read More]
