(BAKERSFIELD, CA - AUGUST 4, 2007) Davey Pombo returned to the winner’s
circle when he captured the 30-lap SCRA 360 wingless Sprint car main event at
Bakersfield Speedway. It marked his second consecutive win at the 1/3-mile clay
track, previously winning on May 12. He took the lead from pole-sitter Justyne
Hamblin on lap seven and was never headed the rest of the way. Pombo crossed the
finish line three short lengths ahead of archrival and point leader Peter
Murphy. Greg Bragg was third followed by Michael Faccinto, Justyne Hamblin,
Miles Bishop, Richard Harvey, Rusty Carlile, Jonathan Logan and Matt Day.
