ROSSBURG, OH (August 3, 2025) — Scott Thiel won the Great Lakes Super Sprints feature Saturday night at Eldora Speedway in dramatic fashion coming from multiple car lengths back on the finale circuit to make the pass for the lead in the final corner of the event.
Thiel, who dropped back in the field after starting on the front row, climbed his way back up to challenge the Canadian duo of Ryan Turner and Darren Dryden for the lead. Dryden appeared to have the race in hand until Thiel got a tremendous drive through turns three and four wand was able to slip by Dryden to win by 0.124 seconds at the finish line.
Dryden, Tyeller Powless, Turner, and United Racing Club regular Josh Weller rounded out the top five.
