USST Weekend Recap

The United States Super Truck Series rained out on Saturday evening for their opener at the Wisconsin Dells. Sunday May 4th, the USST supported the Milwaukee Mile "Drive The Mile" program with 6 trucks who took the track 3 times during the course of the day. The weather had cleared and sunny skies, unbelievable street rods, muscle cars to mom mini vans filled the track and parking lots. They had a record attendance on hand to take the mile. The USST, along with Mid American stock cars, Milwaukee Vintage stock cars and the Vintage modifieds were among the vehicles taking to the track.

USST drivers who attended had a great time, spouting some great looking trucks and taking advantage of some valuable practice runs. By the third and final session, drivers took turns making very hard, wide open throttle runs, entering and exiting corners at full song.  No problems or mishaps, no breakage and all out trucks ran and looked awesome. Jeff Babb’s new truck sounds and runs great, Jeff had both of his trucks there to support the program Steve Miller looks to be a force to recon with, his truck meticulously cared for, Thomas Roney is back in style with a new body, freshened motor and sounded awesome. Steve Hillary's new orange colored Lightening Lite bodied truck ran great, sporting a fresh crate motor. Bobby Yonkee, probably the youngest competitor to ever take the Milwaukee Mile was very happy with the handeling and power of his truck. Other than gearing, he was race ready and was very happy with his test run results. All the drivers spoke to many interested parties, were able to enjoy a great day at the Mile.

Gary Cerny is well on his way to finishing his super truck and will be ready for the the Iowa race. Gary is also opening a new Preferred Pets in Wisc. Gary has been a member of our racing series for many years. He has supported races with sponsorship funds and is a great competitor. Please support Gary in his new store for any of your pet needs.
