PETALUMA, CA, May 31— Beautiful weather, a packed pit area, and a hooked up track greeted the dedicated Petaluma Speedway Patrons after a Memorial Day Weekend dark week.  Colton Slack in his awesome liveried #17 out-paced the 24-car Joe Hunt Wingless Sprints vs Pit Stop USA Spec Sprint field with a deft 14.672.  The three heat race format saw Tommy Laliberte, visiting Scott Hall, and Trevor Schmid notch the 8-lap preliminaries.  Hall also captured the 6-lap trophy dash that sets the line-up for the first three rows of the feature.  The scheduled 25-lap finale saw Hall guide the Campanile #77 to lead from the pole.  Joe Stornetta’s up and down season continued as back straightaway contact eliminated him on lap three.  Hall’s night came to a scary end with a grinding front straightaway flip as he and Schmid vied for the lead.  On the heels of Hall’s flip came a dual front straightaway red for Bobby Nichols and Terry Kirby. Back to green saw veteran Terry Schank Jr. pass three cars and jump to second from eighth starting behind the leader Schmid.  Dicing was the order of the mid-race menu as Laliberte, Zack Lynskey, and Klint Simpson passed and re-passed each other.  Laliberte inched past Schank for second on lap 10, only to be displaced by Lynskey two laps later.  All the while, Schmid, having an outstanding year in his underfunded, self-owned team, guided the field.  With one to go Lynskey made a last gasp high side maneuver that saw contact.  With the green and white being displayed Schank made a drifting, banzai low side pass of Schmid entering turn one that proved to be the winning move.  Rounding out the top five were Schmid, Laliberte, Simpson, and steady Jason McIntosh.
