Hunt of Fair Oaks, Calif. is seeking his first victory of the 2005 campaign this Saturday as the series returns to Shasta Speedway in Anderson, Calif. for a program originally rained out in April. Consistent finishes have kept Tony in the "hunt" for a repeat championship. He has finished no worse than fifth in this year's five outings, scoring two second sin the last three races. No driver has been able to repeat as a winner so far in 2005. Race winners have included Kody Swanson (second in points), Tim Barber (third), Brian McClish (sixth), Cody Veenstra (eighth) and Michael Lewis. A 40-lap race tops Saturday's program of events at the 1/3-mile paved oval where Bud Kaeding holds the 1-lap track record of 13.505 seconds. Barber won last year's Western Sprint race at Adnerson.
