By Devin Mayo Petaluma, CA - April 2nd
A nice sunny day brought local drivers out to do battle for the second Petaluma Speedway Points series race Saturday Night. The Pit Stop USA Winged 360’s had a 11 car field with Trent Canales setting quick time with an impressive 12.184 followed by Bradley Terrell in 2nd and Scott Parker rounding out the top 3. This would set up a 2 heat race format with last years rookie of the year Riley Matson winning his first ever heat race and the always fast Terrell picking up the 2nd heat. David Lindt Jr. and Canales would lead the field to green for 25 laps around the 3/8th’s mile with Canales jumping out to the early lead. A couple of red flag situations would set up a great battle between Canales and Terrell battling lap after lap for the lead. In the end, Terrell would pick up his first victory of the year with Canales with a close 2nd, Shane Myre finishing 3rd in his first season behind a winged sprint car, Geoff Ensign in 4th and Lindt in the 5th spot.
Petaluma Speedway returns to action April 16 with the Winged 360, Spec Sprints, Super Stocks, Dwarfs, 600’s. For more information, visit www.petaluma-speedway.com.
