Greg Higginbotham wins first Sprint feature
Greg Higginbotham was just one spot away from a clean
sweep in the Non-Winged Sprint division. Greg, a rookie this year in
the division, won his heat race, and finished just behind former track
champion Josh Jacobo in the Trophy Dash. Jacobo and Higginbotham put
on quite a show in the A-Main event. Higginbotham took the lead on the
second lap, but Jacobo was right behind him, looking for Greg to make
a mistake. But a mistake was never made and Higginbotham took his
first feature win of the season, narrowly edging out Jacobo. Phil
Pedlar, visiting from Marysville, took the third position. Orland's
Adam Schroer finished in fourth with Dudley Burrows of Willows
rounding out the top five.
Racing will resume this Saturday night, presented by
Century 21/ABC Realty of Orland. Representatives from local radio
stations, TV stations and newspapers have been invited to participate
in a special Media race, driving the popular Mini Trucks.
Pit gate opens at 4:00 and grandstands will open at
5:00 PM. Racing begins at 7:00. Admission for adults is $8; kids and
seniors are $4; under six or over seventy are admitted free of charge.
More information may be obtained by calling the track office at
530/865-2409.
