The wagons were flying around the track Thursday night at the Grande Prairie Stompede.

The track conditions improved dramatically from opening night on Wednesday with some fast times posted.

High River's Jason Glass and his Birchcliff Energy chuckwagon finished in fourth on the night and he now sits within striking distance of first place.

He's currently 3rd overall in the aggregate. Jamie Laboucane just finished ahead of him in heat 10 with Chad Fike having the fastest time of the night with a 1:16.64.

Jordie Fike on the other hand had a much-improved race, finishing in 19th although he did have another penalty, but it was only for 1 second as one of his outriders was late in crossing the finishing line. He would've finished in 8th without the penalty. And De Winton's Dayton Sutherland finished in 22nd on the night.

Hometown favourite and last year's champion Chance Vigen had a much better night finishing in 18th after tipping his wagon on Wednesday resulting in a No Time.

The Stompede continues with the finals on Sunday.
