WINGS&WRECKS ;
Thanks goes out to Bob Amore for again sponsoring the Sprint car event, and for supplying the IROC bodies. Good to see Dave Fitzgerald with a career best 6th place finish in Sprints. Bryan’s Sprint car win makes him the 3rd different winner in the Sprint car division. Tony Z. did a good job handling the flagging. Thanks to Jim LeVan for his fine work on the IROC cars. Boundary issues were pretty calm this year until the IROC race when Jodi came on!
Mark and Jody Williams will have an open practice for the final Berks – Lebanon Series race on Sunday Feb. 7 from 1-3.
