California Sprint Car & Midget Power Poll for July 10, 2012
ELK GROVE, CALIFORNIA (July 10, 2012) -Mike Spencer continued his reign atop
the California Sprint & Midget Power Poll for the second consecutive
time, thanks in large part of a big win on the 4th of July at Perris
Auto Speedway ahead of Nic Faas. Wingless drivers are showing their
muscle in the Poll but it was a winged win for Bud Kaeding at Chico on
the 4th that propelled him back to second in the standings, while Colby
Wiesz cracks the top-ten for the first time after topping a 44 car field
at Placerville on the 4th.
Stephen Allard has
moved forward five positions in the Power Poll to third overall after
winning the Civil War Sprints feature at Petaulma Speedway on Saturday.
One member of our panel described Kyle Hirst at the hottest driver in
California after numerous second place finishes over the last few weeks,
and he joins the poll for the first time in ninth.
Tim Kaeding fell from
the top-ten while racing throughout the Midwest with the World of
Outlaws and scoring a World of Outlaws victory. His father Brent scored
a King of the West win at Placerville and a USAC win at Watsonville to
be ranked eighth overall.
