Saturday night was the fourth round of the Spring Fling Points Series, at Santa Maria. The event seemed a bit flat, mostly because the program had to be modified to accomodate only 12 speedway riders, due to 2 last minute cancellations and 2 no-shows. The program was however supplemented by flat track, midget car and quad racing, which went some way to make up for 4 cancelled heats and a number of 3 man heats. Despite the extremely hot weather during the week the track held up well. It was a little wet to start with, but by the end of the evening was perfect.
Results: Mark Hitchcock 13 Chris Campos 12 Marvin Sonnier 11 Robbie Sauer 11 Billy Lyons 10 John VanderMuellen 9 Gerry Duttweiller 9 Mark Maynard 8 Jeff Smith 6 Jason Montgomery 3 Jimmy Collins 3 Jason Chabot 1 Charlie Powell 3 reserve, 1 ride A final Sauer, Lyons, Campos, Sonnier, Hitchcock B final Lyons, VanderMuellen, Maynard, Duttweiler, Collins C final Collins, Smith, Montgomery, Chabot
We are short of riders. Any local riders who want to get on the program, please EMail me. Now that we have built up a bigger crowd, it would be a shame to see it go away, because of the lack of riders.
Next week the points series continues.
