ESTEVAN - It was arguably one of the busiest nights ever at the Estevan Motor Speedway (EMS).

Nine feature races were part of Saturday night's program at the 23-year-old venue, and in a show of parity, there were nine different feature winners.

The program started an hour earlier than normal at 6 p.m., in order to squeeze in the four feature races that were postponed from the Aug. 12 program due to rain.

Travis Hagen won the modified feature. Kody Scholpp was second, Aaron Turnbull finished third and Steven Pfeifer came in fourth.

Brandon Beeter won the hobby stock feature, finishing ahead of Kyler Satran, Brennor Grinstead and Connor Hanson.

Austin Daae won the stock car feature, finishing ahead of Mike Hagen. Adam Goff was third and Chris Hortness was fourth.

Jacek Ashworth won the slingshot feature, finishing ahead of Hudson Mann, who was second, Eli Turnbull came in third and Landon Gaudreau was fourth.

The only feature that was run on Aug. 12 was in the sport mod class, with Leevi Runge emerging victorious.

After a brief intermission following the last of the rescheduled races, the drivers regrouped and the regularly-scheduled portion of the Aug. 19 program began with qualifying heats in each of the five divisions. The preliminary races wrapped up slightly later than they normally would.

Features were held after the intermission.

Scholpp took top spot in the modified feature, finishing ahead of Marcus Tomlinson. Aaron Turnbull was third and Travis Hagen was fourth.

Grinstead was the winner of the hobby stock feature, with Kaiden Tuchscherer in second, Diezel Raynard in third and Kayden Hjorteland in fourth. Grinstead started 13th  the feature but worked his way up to the lead.

Mike Hagen won the stock car feature, finishing ahead of Goff, Hortness and Kyle Scholpp.

As for the slingshots, Gunner Raynard was the feature winner ahead of Mann, who worked his way up from the 15th starting to finish second. Gage Goetz was third and Eli Turnbull was fourth.
