By Lanae Weyer

April 30, 2000; Slinger, WI -  While the youth movement made a valiant effort Sunday at the Slinger Speedway, in the end it was longtime veteran and defending track champion Conrad Morgan who came home with the overall title in the Miller Genuine Draft Twin 75's Spring Opener.

Morgan secured the overall crown by finishing second in the first 75 lap late model feature and then used a thrilling last lap pass to win the nightcap.

Jamie Wallace, a relative newcomer to the high banks of Slinger, jumped out the early lead in the first Miller Genuine Draft 75 as Morgan, who started eighth, began to work his way towards the front. Following a lap 13 caution for a Jeff Holtz and John Mueller spin, Morgan found himself in a hard battle with Eric Fransen for second while Wallace padded his lead by lapping slower cars. On lap 54, Fransen slowed momentarily allowing Morgan to set his sights on Wallace. Morgan could only manage to close to Wallace’s rear bumper on the final lap as Wallace took the victory. Al Schill finished third while David Prunty and Fransen rounded out the top five.

The lead battle! Rich Loch (#55) is about to lose the lead to eventual winner Conrad Morgan (#92) in the second 75 lap Late Model feature! The best Late Model drivers in the nation do battle before a full house on the World's Fastest 1/4 mile oval. Slinger Super Speedway!

Morgan began the second Miller Genuine Draft 75 from the fourteenth position while Rich Loch led a tightly bunched pack at the drop of the green flag. The close racing at the front of the field produced a spectacular looking incident involving Donavan Morgan and John Zimmerman which brought out the red flag on lap 11. Once racing resumed, Loch continued to hold the top spot as Schill and Morgan expertly worked traffic and began to close in.

Late in the first 75 lap feature, David Prunty (#1) and Al Schill Sr. (#14) do battle.   Prunty would finish third in the event with Schill claiming fourth.

Schill made his bid to take the point with seven laps to go but found himself in a spin down the backstretch while charging for the lead, allowing Morgan to move into second. Morgan hounded Loch over the final five laps and pulled even on the outside as the two raced side-by-side to the white flag. Finding the outer groove to his liking, Morgan was able to outdistance Loch through the fourth turn to take the victory by a half car length.

Toby Rott held off Chris Rataczyk to win the 35 lap late model semi-feature while Joe Gross was the winner of the 12 lap late model consi. Cindy Peterson won the eight lap late model dash while Morgan was the fastest qualifier at 11.594 seconds.

Defending Midwest Modified track champion Dennis Prunty began the new season in strong fashion as he captured the win in the 35 lap modified main event. Prunty took the lead on lap four and was never headed as he took the checkered flag ahead of Chris Peterson, Mike Held, and Lenny Galenberg III. Paul Treuthardt finished fifth.
