EMO FAIR 2026 — ONE FOR THE ARCHIVES FOR STIEH RACING

A husband & wife duo win!

We headed down with two street stocks and the modified. Curtis brought home the checkers in the Modified on Friday, and Kat sealed the deal Sunday with her first Wissota street stock checkered flag.

Being able to wheel our fleet around and show consistency in the try department — with a little sprinkle of luck and MASSIVE support from our crew, marketing partners and friends — it's so nice to let that shine through on win days like these.

Connor had a blast and turned valuable laps over two days with minimal damage and lots of improvements.

FRIDAY

Connor — Heat: 3rd to 5th | B-Main: 1st to 9th (DNF)
Kat — Heat: 7th to 4th | Feature: 14th to 12th (major damage, woohoo)
Curtis — Heat: 1st to 2nd | Feature: 2nd to 1st 🏁

SUNDAY

Connor — Heat: 5th to 6th | Feature: 16th to 13th
Kat — Heat: 2nd to 1st 🏁🧹 | Feature: 1st to 1st 🏁
Curtis — Heat: 5th to 3rd | Feature: 4th to 2nd

Not only did Kat win her first feature, she pulled off her first sweep. A testament to never giving up, that's for sure.

If you haven't been to EMO Fair — it's the perfect mix of family fun and racing in a great atmosphere. Hats off to the track crew, the volunteers, and everyone who puts on this event. 🙌

Thunder City Speedway Recap — August 13th

Dialing the cars in for the end of the season.

Street Stocks

Colton ran his heat and the B main, going 8th to 9th in both. Not the results he was chasing, but he climbed out of the car smiling both times, and that's what matters at this point in the year.

Kat had a solid night in the street stock, picking up two spots in her heat (7th to 5th) and then charging from 15th to 10th in the feature. Just happy to have the car back together after the rain-out the day before. Can't thank the crew enough for that one — pounding tin in the pouring rain was straight out of a racing series, and it means more than you'll ever know.

B-Mod

Curtis moved forward in every race he ran. Fourth to third in the heat, then 10th to 7th in the feature.

Modifieds

Curtis absolutely laid it down. Sixth to fourth in the heat, then started on the pole in the feature and brought it home 2nd. Great run and a great show.

Kat is getting more comfortable in the modified every time out. Fifth in the heat and some hard laps in the feature — looking forward to more seat time.

We've got a double dose of racing to catch you up on — our Wednesday night at Thunder City and the Emo Race for the Fallen weekend.

Consistency is starting to come around, and honestly, watching Kat and Curtis race side-by-side again has been the best part.

A huge thank you to our crew, who stepped up once again — we even landed a feature in the paper! We're so grateful to every single one of you, including a few who couldn't make it into the photo. We couldn't do any of this without you. ❤️
