On 9-15-09 we headed to the Wissota 100 at the Dakota State Fair Speedway in Huron, SD. On Tuesday night we were able to get some practice laps in and Scott got the 3rd fastest lap times, which was pretty cool.
On Wednesday 9-16-09 over 80 Wissota Midwest Modifieds were in 8 heat races on the first day. The format was you had to get top 3 in the heat to make the first round of the qualifying feature. 24 race cars would be in the first qualifying feature. The top 12 in the qualifying feature would make up the first 4 rows of the 30 car, 3 wide start main event on Saturday night. (more…)

Over 40 Wissota Midwest Modified race cars showed up for the first night of the Jamestown Speedways Double Header Labor Day Weekend Races. Thanks for some major fixes by Mitch and the crew at Specialty Fabricating J-Car and final touches by Spencer Johnson and the head grinder Shawn Herrick, we were ready to race. I drew 12 and was on pole of the 6th heat. The track was dry with some tack in it. On the start, I got the lead and we had 2 cautions in before we finally made a lap. On the last re-start, I took the lead and kept it with Ryan Mikkelson hot on my tail. I was super happy for the heat win at such a big show. Hard to believe its the 15th heat win this year.

For the feature, I drew 4. This put me in row two on the outside. Next to Dustin Strand of course. We were the last feature of the night so the track was super dry with not to much of a cushion on the top. We got going and I was able to move into 3rd and then after a re-start into 2nd. Strand had the lead. Seemed like i was gaining on him in corner 1 and 2 and loosing him in corner 3 and 4. I had been running low most of the race. After another caution, I picked low and Flyin Ryan Mikkelson was high beside me. Strand got a good start and Mikkelson and I were battling pretty hard for 2nd. We had one last caution. (more…)

Wrecked in Lisbon: On Tuesday, September 1st, we headed down to the Sheyenne River Speedway in Lisbon, ND for championship night. Started in the 3rd position of the heat and moved into 2nd pretty quick. Tried chasing down the leader but wasn’t able to make a pass. For the feature, started in the same position as it was a straight up race. Moved into 2nd and was running down the leader. There was a few cautions in the first few laps. On the restart, I picked low and was on the inside lane side by side the leader coming out of turn 2. The leader pulled away a bit and coming out of corner four, I was hit pretty hard in the rear and pushed into the wall. I think I was on 2 wheels from the flag stand to the end of the wall. Another driver was called for the caution. After the a stop in the pits and a tire change, got back out on the track. The car was in pretty rough shape but made it back to 7th or 8th. (Not sure of official results yet). After we got the car home we realized the entire rear section of the car and fuel cell was destroyed. The rear clip was barely hanging on to the chassis. On a positive note, Ryan Mikkelson, who is also sponsored by RealTruck.Com, came from tail end in the feature and won the race along with the track championship.
THANK YOU Mitch & the Specialty Fabricating J-Car Crew

On Wednesday August 26th, we headed to the Sheyenne River Speedway for their county fair special with both Wissota Midwest Modified and Wissota A-Mods. Scott started 3rd row inside in the heat and moved up about a car per lap. He almost got the heat win but drove it in a little low on the last lap. Then there was a last corner caution thrown. For the feature, Scott got jammed up a bit and dropped back a few spots on the start. He started moving up and got into 2nd. He wasn’t ever able to reel in the leader too much. Scott got close a few times but not enough to make a good run for the lead. He did get a few chances to try for the lead on the re-starts, but the leader was pretty smooth towards the end of the race. Scott Finished 2nd. Randy Klein was the feature winner. (more…)

The weekend plans on Friday August 14th, 2009 began with plans to race River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, ND. However, with a rain out we headed to the Red River Valley Speedway in West Fargo, ND. Scott started 4th in the heat and on the started dropped back several spots. After he completed a few laps he started moving up again and finished 3rd. Then the rain came and the races we cancelled.
On Saturday August 15th, 2009, we headed back to Jamestown for some racing at the Jamestown Speedway. At 4pm this was a pretty good down pour of rain but the track was able to work it in. 32 MW Mods showed up for the race. There were 4 heats with 8 cars in each. Scott Bintz start on pole in the 4th heat. Scott got the earlier lead and kept it through three cautions. Very tacky track in both the heat and feature. On the starting lap of the feature, Scott got spun and into the mud he went in the center of the track. On the restart he moved into 5th pretty quickly and after several laps into 4th. The 3rd place runner dropped out so Scott got into third for the last few laps of the race. On a restart with 4 to go, Scott got passed at the end by Austin Arneson (who was bad fast and had been sent tail end at the beginning of the race) and wound up finishing 4th. John Corell led most of the race but bobbled on the last lap. Dustin Strand won, followed by Corell and Austin Arneson. On a side note, the heat winners got spots 1-4 in the feature.
On Sunday, we went to BRRP, Buffalo River Race Park in Glyndon, MN. Scott started 4th in the 4th heat and moved up a car a time and got the lead. He won the heat by about a straight away as the car was pretty hooked up. In the feature, he started 7th. On the first corner, Scott spun out and got sent tail end. After that the Midwest Mods went 15 laps without a caution and Scott moved up from 20th to finish 10th. Car worked well, but the spin out on the first lap didn’t help. Travis Saurer won the feature.

We planned to race the Tri-County Speedway in Wishek on Friday, then Jamestown on Saturday and a trip up to Bottineau on Sunday. However, the weather changed our plans a bit. On Friday afternoon right about the time Scott finished changing gears for Tri-County, we got the word it was cancelled due to rain. We decided to head to Fargo to be fans for the night and watch the races there. It was a fast track with alot of action. On Saturday, Jamestown got rained out so we went to the Movie GI Joe with the kids.

On Sunday August 9th we head up to Bottineau to race. 14 Wissota Midwest Modifeds showed up for the season championship at the Thunder Mountain Speedway in Bottineau, ND. It was Scott first time this year at the track. The track staff, fans and racers were very friendly and provided a great night of racing. Scott started outside pole of the first heat. He got the lead on the first lap and won by about a 1/2 track after a 10 lap heat. For the trophy dash, Scott started 6th and finished 3rd. Brent Perleberg won the trophy dash. For the feature, Scott started on pole and got the early lead and held it for all 20 laps. The track was turning into dry slick as the race went on. There were a number of cautions and Scott was able to hang onto the lead his 4th feature win of the Season. Brent Perleberg finished 2nd followed by Jeff Hooker. Jim Morlock won the Season Championship for the track.
We stayed over night at Lake Metigoshe located in the Turtle Mountains about 5 miles from Bottineau. What a beautiful place to camp.

Here are the pictures from the Wissota Midwest Modified Feature Win at Dakota State Fair Speedway on 8-1-09. Scott was pretty shocked to make the double pass at the end for the win and the pictures show a smiling but seriously nervous racer. Photo’s courtesy of Bradley Letcher of Chaos Photo. Scott Bintz Racing is pleased to be running the Dakota Engine Builders Powered 2002 Hoffman Race Car this year. The chassis is a little older but the Dakota Engine makes it very competative.
