JACKSON, Minn. (June 25, 2026) – Lee Goos Jr., J.J. Zebell, Landon Krohn and Levi Vander Weide recorded victories on Thursday at Jackson Motorplex during Finke Excavating Night presented by Fox Lake Event Center, which marked the second round of the Heiman Fire Equipment Mayhem Summer Series.

Goos Jr. topped a thriller in the Heser Auto & Detailing RaceSaver Sprint Cars and MedStar Midwest Sprint Touring Series RaceSavers main event as he charged from 12th to earn his fourth career triumph at the track.

“That was a lot of fun,” he said. “I kept working the bottom, working the bottom until I finally found something and I was being super patient. Honestly, I didn’t know I won. It was kinda cool when they came across the radio and said 17 won. That was badass. I love this track. It’s a great facility Tod (Quiring) has here.”

The battle for the top spot was intense throughout with Goos Jr. making the race-winning pass with four circuits remaining.

Andrew Sullivan, Dylan Waxdahl, Jake Greenwood and Aydin Lloyd rounded out the top five, respectively.

Braden Ockenga, Lloyd, Greenwood and Waxdahl posted heat race wins with Jeremy Schultz capturing the B Main.

Zebell held off Tim Dann during a non-stop, 15-lap Late Model Street Stocks main event with the margin of victory at 0.306 seconds.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been in Victory Lane so I don’t know what to say,” he said after his first-ever win at Jackson Motorplex. “It’s very rewarding. I’m getting old. These wins are getting harder and harder to get.”

Cory Yeigh garnered a third-place result with Ron Howe finishing fourth and Paul Lebahn fifth.

Yeigh and Dann delivered heat race triumphs.

Krohn led the distance of the non-stop, 15-lap USRA Hobby Stocks main event, perfectly hitting the bottom groove lap by lap to win by 0.553 seconds. It was his first triumph at the track.

“If anyone knows the way I race, I don’t like feeding on the bottom,” he said. “You can’t make a mistake. I think I felt (Dustin Gulbrandson) there once. I just wasn’t going to give it up. I just did what I needed to.”

Gulbrandson, who nearly pulled even at one point and was within striking distance throughout the feature, finished second. Jeremy Wegner placed third with Parker Anderson fourth and Johnathon Hynes fifth.

Josh Bradley and Wegner were the heat race winners.

Vander Weide took over the top spot on Lap 6 to capture his first career victory at Jackson Motorplex during the 15-lap USRA Stock Cars main event, winning by 0.601 seconds.

“This is incredible,” he said. “I’ve struggled all year. I’ve been in the shop every day trying to figure this thing out. I guess I got it right. I enjoyed this one. Finally, that’s the car I remember from last year on a rail and had so much drive off.”

Chance Larson paced the field for the first five laps before Vander Weide got underneath him with the race-winning pass a third of the way through the featire. Gavin Bussinger was the third-place finisher with Luke Sathoff ending fourth and Colby Klaassen fifth.

Klaassen and Bussinger posted heat race wins.

The Cressman Sanitation Midwest 410 Sprint Touring Series as well as the Heser Auto & Detailing RaceSaver Sprint Cars and MedStar Midwest Sprint Touring Series will be in action.
