ORLAND SPRINT CARS - Wix Filters
Championship Series
A-MAIN Chico's Tony Richards held off a fast track of cars to take the season opener's Wix Filter's Sprint Car Challenge. Chris Webber, 2003 Rookie of the Year, was the Wix Filter Trophy Dash victor for the evening. Track champion Adam Schroer returned to his comfort zone in the #29 Mini Modified to take the main event win for the night. Schroer will field a Sprint car (also #29) in the next week or two, and should be a serious competitor in that division. The MiniMod trophy dash was won by Mario Romano, who is now fielding his #16 Mini Mod, in addition to driving the #0d Mini Truck which has earned him three track championships. Ken Lewis was victorious in the Mini Stock division's main event. Lewis is driving under circumstances which would keep most folks at home; He has Hodgkin's Lymphoma and is undergoing treatment. His Doctor's have approved his weekend love of motorsports, stating that "anything Ken loves as much as racing has to be good for him!" Kevin Pendergrass took home the trophy for the Mini Stocks. In the Pure Stock division, Marysville's Phil Shelby garnered his first main event win in his #63 machine. The Shelby family have a love for racing which brings their children into the sport, all soon to be drivers in their own right. Mario Romano took to the seat of the #0d Mini Truck
and felt right at home, passing a very competitive field to take the
main event win. Nathan Skaggs felt equally competitive in
his #49 truck, taking home the trophy for the truck's dash victory. |
