Scotts Valley's Evan Suggs continues to be impressive this season and goes into Calistoga 2nd in the KWS standings, coming off a night in Santa Maria that saw him set fast time, win his heat race, finish 4th in the dash and 4th in the main event.
Last year Suggs finished a career best 4th at the Calistoga Speedway during the Salute to Walt Ross. Photo by Steven Cox of http://www.sprintcarphotos.com
