SUN PRAIRIE, Wis. — Point-leader Mike Hess scored a dramatic last-lap victory in Sunday night’s 30-lap Badger Midget Series feature at Angell Park Speedway.
 Davey Ray took the lead at the start. Brandon Waelti caught Ray on lap nine and made a pass for the lead. Five laps later, Hess took second, trailing Waelti by nearly two seconds.
Hess closed to Waelti’s rear bumper with three laps remaining.
Hess got a great run off the cushion, coming for the white flag, and was the leader at the start-finish line by a few feet. Waelti regained the lead entering turn one, but Hess got a run off the cushion exiting turn four and won by a car length.
Trailing Hess and Waelti were Bubba Altig, Ray and Australian Matt Smith.
The finish:
Mike Hess, Brandon Waelti, Bubba Altig, Davey Ray, Matt Smith, Scott Hatton, Joe Wipperfurth, Adam Clarke, Tim Noble, Kurt Mayhew, David Budres, Jon LeJuene, Aaron Fiscus, David Gough, Chad DeSelle, Jim Fuerst, Jason Dull, Dick Kaiser, Robbie Ray.
