Seng Wins Fourth Of The Season At Devils Lake

Defending NLRA series champion Brad Seng, driver of the No. 12S S&S Transport MB Custom held off a hard charging Mike Balcaen, driver of the No. 10 Northstar Canada Black Diamond, to win his 30th career NLRA feature, with his fourth series triumph of the season last Saturday night at the Devils Lake Speedway near Doyon, ND. Seng, who entered the night as the defending winner at Devils Lake, closed his deficit in the series point standings to 30 points behind Mike Balcaen, with Dustin Strand separating the pair, sitting in second just twelve markers back of the lead.

Strand started on the pole, and lead through turns one and two, but Seng took the lead down the backstretch, as a father/son and veteran-vs.-veteran three car battle for second broke out between Brian and Dustin Strand in their twin Q&Z Plumbing & Heating No. 71's, and Mike Balcaen. Balcaen eventually took second, as Seng had built up a half a straightaway advantage by the end of five laps. As Ricky Weiss separated the Strands by taking fourth, Balcaen had ate into Seng's advantage as the pair approached lapped traffic. The traffic was running high and low, as Balcaen caught, and passed Seng for the lead, catching a good bite off the bottom of turn four, taking the lead on lap 11.

Balcaen lead the next three laps, as they had some clear track ahead, but Seng returned the favor as the pair re-approached lapped traffic, with Seng retaking the point on lap 14. Once Seng was back on the point, he then cruised to victory, lapping into the top ten on a track that developed two cushions, one on top, and one in the middle, the event went flag-to-flag, with no cautions, taking just six-and-a-half minutes to complete. Mike Balcaen finished second, with Ricky Weiss in the No. 7  Derrick's Sandblasting Bloomquist third, Dustin Strand, driver of the Q&Z Plumbing & Heating No. 71 fourth, and Bill Mooney, driver of the No. 2 OMG Candy MasterSbuilt by JMR rounding out the top five after starting tenth. 

Cole Schill, driver of the No. 44 Rivinius Ranch MasterSbuilt by JMR, finished sixth with Joey Pederson, driver of the No. 7P Dahlstrom Motors MB Custom in seventh, Steffen Snare, driver of the No. 71S High Mark Snowmobile Rentals Bloomquist eighth, Brian Strand, driver of the Q&Z Plumbing & Heating No. 71B ninth, and Mandan Native Darrell Bauer in his No. 54 entry rounding out the top ten. Brian Strand, Brad Seng, and Dustin Strand won the heat races, with 20 cars in attendance.

Three-time NLRA champion Mike Balcaen leads the NLRA point standings with a twelve point advantage over 2013 series champion Dustin Strand, driver of the Q&Z Plumbing & Heating No. 71. Defending series champion Brad Seng sits in the third spot, while Steffen Snare and Ricky Weiss round out the top five. Steve Anderson is in the sixth spot, with Cole Schill seventh, Jeff Hapala, driver of the No. 16S Auto Solutions Rocket eighth, Bill Mooney ninth, and Norm Olson, driver of the No. 29 Disabled American Veterans MasterSbuilt rounding out the top ten. NLRA series action continues next Saturday night, July the 25th, with the series second and final appearance this season at the Greenbush Race Park in Greenbush, MN.
