Lincoln, IL – April 13, 2025 – The 2025 racing season roared

Opening night winners included Dakota Ewing, after an exciting
battle with Chris Dick swapping the lead on a number of occasions
and Chase Holland who was able to take the top spot and win in the
Modifieds after slipping by one of Lincoln’s top Mod competitors,
Ray Bollinger.
Ed Cleeton had a great night, taking the Sportsman first heat and
feature, while Alex Midkiff took MARA Midget checkers. Rounding
things out, Ken Johnson took Crown Vic checkers over a solid field
in the relatively new class.
