Hatlestad Holds Off Late Charge for Arlington Modified Win
By Susan Allen ARLINGTON, Minn. (May 24, 2025) — The Friesen Performance IMCA Modifieds provided a thrilling main event at Arlington Raceway, with multiple cautions and challenges keeping fans on the edge of their seats. Chad Porter jumped out to an early lead and set the pace through the opening laps. But when a caution flew on lap six, Porter was among those who had trouble navigating traffic, opening the door for Clint Hatlestad. Hatlestad seized the opportunity and took over the lead after the restart. Another caution on lap nine tightened the pack once more, but the Glencoe driver remained strong up front. Trent Loverude applied heavy pressure late, drawing to Hatlestad’s rear bumper just before another caution bunched the field for one final sprint. Hatlestad nailed the last restart and never looked back, scoring his first win of the 2025 campaign at Arlington and in the Razor Chassis North Central Region. Loverude settled for second, with Porter rounding out the podium. Mackenthun Masters Bottom Lane for Stock Car Victory Dan Mackenthun worked his way [Read More]
