Despite all the mid week rain, Don Wauters and the track crew had the race track in great shape. The track did have a little character as it was rough in a few spots but it still produced exciting racing action all night. One hundred-three cars signed in for Race Night number two at the Figure Eight Capital of The World. The first green flag was at 7:15pm and the final checkered flag was displayed at 11:22pm.

Tyler Lee finished second, Joe Dent ran second most of the way before falling back to third, Morgan Dennis was fourth and Dakota Young was fifth.
Junior Front Wheel Drive feature was up next and it was Dayton Filloon grabbing the top spot on lap one but just after completing lap one the caution came when Filloon came to a stop on the back stretch. That gave the lead over to Dylan Zuck and he led until just after completing lap three when he experienced issues coming to a stop in turn two. Addalyn Stevens inherited the lead after Zuck experienced issues and Stevens held off challenges from Addasyn Spain too take the win in her first night out. Spain finished second, Zuck was third, Austin was fourth and Filloon fifth.

Thanks to Don and Shelley Wauters for inviting me and the hospitality I received last night. I enjoy coming down its fun and you guys make me feel special for covering the Brooklyn Raceway.
I took 500+
pictures and they are posted on the Trackside Report Facebook Page and you find the direct link to the photo album at Brooklyn Manatt's / Flag Day 6-12-20. If you share
the pictures please give me credit because I do this for the love of
this sport and not to make money, however if you want to give me some I
wouldn't complain.
As I was in Brooklyn, I learned from some buddies the Marshalltown Speedway lost power in turns three and four after the Mod Lites feature on RBF Electric Night and was unable to get it fixed, despite Mike O'Lear and Jeremiah Andrews attempt to resolve the issue. It will be double features in the Sport Mods, Hobby Stocks, Stock Cars, Modifieds and Late Models plus the Mod Lites. Make-Up features will be ran first than followed by a complete new show.
