Josh Wise of Riverside, Calif. completed his drive to the 2006 USAC National Sprint Car Championship by winning Saturday night’s 40-lap feature at Manzanita Speedway in Phoenix, Ariz.

On Friday, Wise led the final 20 laps to beat Darren Hagen, Jesse Hockett, Jones and Kaeding. Kaeding won Thursday’s 25-lap prelim in his Loan City/Team ASE Maxim/Shaver, leading the last 21 laps to beat Jones, Coons, Dave Darland and Clayton. Darland led the first four laps of Thursday’s race while Hagen led the first five laps on Friday.

Defending USAC National Sprint Car Champion Jones concluded the 2006 season 88 points in arrears of his teammate, Wise.
