BORNTREGER & TRUTE VICTORIOUS IN KALAHARI SPLASH
Wisconsin Dells WI- Dave Trute and Andrew Borntreger split the Kalahari Summer Splash twin 30 Lap features in an awesome showcase of the Sportsman class at Dells Raceway Park. 36 of the area’s best Sportsman fought tooth and nail to make the 26 car field for the Kalahari Summer Splash when the dust settled on feature 1 it was the Deuce that stood above all others. This win for Dave Trute was historic as he is now tied for the most career feature wins at DRP. Trute was followed to the line by Andrew Borntreger, Tytus Helgestad, Matthew Thoma and Tommy Moore. In Feature 2 it was all Andrew Borntreger as he had a dominant performance to capture the Checkered Flag. The 15 would be followed to the line by Chris Weber, Tytus Helgestad, Matthew Thoma and Jason Thoma. By virtue of his combined feature scores the 2024 Kalahari Summer Splash Overall Champion was Andrew Borntreger. Further results can be found below. The sportsman class is back in action this coming Saturday Night at Trucking Country Night at the Races.
