Sun Prairie, Wis. (May 24, 1987) – Dan Boorse breezed to victory in the 50-lap Badger Midget Auto Racing Association/USAC Midget Series feature Sunday night at Angell Park Speedway.
Dale Hurd led the first four circuits of the main event, only to yield the top spot to Robby Flock on the fifth lap. Two laps later, Kevin Olson took command.
Olson maintained the front-running position until the 22nd round when Boorse got his first taste of the top spot. Olson regained the lead on lap 20 but lost it back to Boorse for good on lap 37.
On the same circuit, Bob Schneider flipped several times in turn three forcing a caution. When the race resumed, Olson and Rich Vogler then tangled, forcing another delay.
After green flag racing returned, Boorse again took the lead and had an easy time of it for the remainder of the race as he took the checkered flag well in front of Flock. Vogler edged Olson at the finish for third while Davy Ray rounded out the top five.
