Hanestad Wins At Placerville

by Bill Sullivan

PLACERVILLE , CA – In the Hunt Magnetos Wingless Sprint cars Darrell Hanestead of Clayton took the lead from pole sitter Dave Hays Jr. on the fourth lap of the race. Once in front, the former winged racing star ruled the event out in front. Herman Klein of Sacramento charged through the field in his Matt Fontain owned wingless ride that won the Wingless Nationals last fall. Klein started fifth and finished in second place ahead of series point leader Bob Newberry of Antioch . Matt Streeter finished in fourth ahead of Sacramento ’s Steve Stein.
            The 20 lap feature went under red flag conditions on the 12th lap when Nathan Johnson of Corning took a wild tumble in the second turn. Johnson flipped over several times before coming to rest on the track. He was uninjured in the event. A total of 24 wingless cars were in competition Saturday night.
            Placerville Speedway will go dark next weekend to allow for the Memorial Day events at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico . The next race at the El Dorado County Fairground will be Saturday, June 3 with the return of the Golden State Challenge Series sprint cars that will be making their second and final appearance of the season here.
