GR Motorsports was established in 1992 by Bill and Vicki Gross. Bill and Vicki have 7 boys (Jason, Jeremy, Jared, Justin, John, Jordan, and Jamison)
that take part in this very demanding sport. Jason and Jeremy are the full time Modified drivers. As for the rest of them, well they get stuck with the "grunt" work.
Local Whelen Midwest Modified Series drivers Pete Leuschner and Jason Haugerud started JP Motorsports in 2011, with Anderson's Maple Syrup coming on board as a primary sponsor. JP Motorsports competes weekly each Saturday night at the Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, WI.

It looked like Jason Gross was going to be the Modified winner on Saturday, as he led nineteen laps before being overtaken on the final tour of the oval. Gross started on the pole (after finishing 3rd in his heat race)
and got the jump on Buddy Mayala and then began to build up a substantial lead in what turned out to be a nonstop main event. Matt Leer had to fight his way past a strong running Scott Miller to move into second and by the
time he got to the position, Gross had at least half a straightway advantage on him.
As the race remained under the green, Leer slowly but surely began to close the margin but it wasn't until the last five laps that he began to cut the lead considerably as Jason began to lose traction in the corners with
Leer gaining much ground on him. With two laps to go, Leer closed to the rear bumper of Gross and got a strong run off turn four. Matt dove to the inside as they came down the front chute and with Gross trying to protect
his position, the two leaders got together. Both got sideways but both straightened out and raced on. Gross continued to hold a small lead as they raced down the back chute with Leer again trying to get inside Gross. Flying
through the final corners, Gross slid out just a little and Leer dove inside him. They raced to the line with Leer winning by a car length. While the two leaders battled, this gave Kevin Adams the chance to catch them, and
he flashed across the line just another car length behind Gross. Mike Anderson and Paul Brust completed the top five.

In the inaugural race for the Modified's at the Cedar Lake Speedway, Jason Gross found trouble on lap 1 of the feature, and brought out the first and only caution of the race.
He would end up finishing 11th in the feature.
In the Midwest Modified races, Jason Haugerud won his heat race to get into the feature. However, the feature race wasn't as nice, as only 13 of the 24 cars that started
the race would finish. Jason wound up in one of the accidents and ended up coming in in 18th.
