What won the race: Fourth-starting A.J. Diemel of Elk Mound, Wis., rolled to the victory in Friday night’s Fall Frenzy opener at Cedar Lake Speedway. He took the checkers ahead of Jesse Glenz and James Giossi.

Key notes: The Fall Frenzy weekend was slated to be a two-day event with heat races on Friday setting up the $3,500-to-win feature on Saturday night but racers overwhelmingly voted in the drivers meeting to separate the event into two separate shows. … The weekend finishes with a $10,000-to-win enduro race on Sunday. … The Fall Frenzy features five divisions with USRA Late Models, modifieds, pro stocks and Midwest Modifieds joining the program. … Pit gates open at 2 p.m. each day racing at 6.

On the move: Jimmy Mars of Menomonie, Wis., started 13th and finished eighth.

Winner's sponsors: Diemel’s MB Customs Race Car is powered by a Vic Hill Race Engine and sponsored by Beltline Body Shop, White City Glass, Southworth Chevrolet, Schill Construction Motorsports, Prestige Custom Cabinetry & Millwork, CMD Race Shocks, Wehrs, Speedwerx and Keyser Mfg.
