TRI-OVAL TAKE OUTS:
Congrats to Brian Sponagle who had a good week of racing with a 7th and 6th place finish in the recent Berks / Lebanon Series race, 5th in Cup, and his 1st IROC win. Track crew had to be called out in the Cup race to clean up Jim’s orange paint after incident at start finish line. When reviewing the tape it looks like Randy started the incident ? Brian’s win makes it the 5th different winner in 6 IROC events. Thanks to Mark for working on the IROC cars, which were very good.
