What won the race: Dominating with a 48-lap victory, outside front-row starter Jesse Glenz of Chippewa Falls, Wis., collected $4,800 Saturday at 141 Speedway with a Wabam Dirt Kings Tour victory. Glenz cruised to his second career tour victory, taking the checkers 2.888 seconds ahead of third-starting Joel Bennett.
Key notes: Glenz, who scored his first victory of any kind in 2026, notched his second career Dirt Kings victory. ... His first came Aug. 14, 2000, at the Plymouth (Wis.) Dirt Track in a race that also honored Jim Letizia. ... Jake Timm, who started 13th, ran as high as third before fading and retiring after 37 laps. ... Polesitter Troy Springborn finished fifth. ... A single caution slowed the actionwhen Todd Frank spun exiting turn two. ..... The 16-minute feature concluded at 10:42 p.m. ... Thirteen of 22 starters completed 48 laps. ... The event honored the life and legacy of “Diamond” Jim Letizia for his 40 years in racing, many of which spent behind the wheel of the familiar No. D7 Dirt Late Model. Letizia also had a large presence as a local businessman, owning Diamond Jim’s Motorcars auto sales and Diamond Jim’s Steakhouse.
On the move: Chris Oertel of Marshfield, Wis., started 11th and finished third.
