Skagit Speedway
ARMED FORCES NIGHT // $5 ENTRY WITH MILITARY I.D.
Racing thunders back to Skagit Speedway this Saturday, May 16, for Armed Forces night. The Hill’s Premium Meat Company 410 Sprint Cars return for another weekend of racing, joined by the Sportsman Sprint Cars and the Hornets as well. Entry is $5 with ID.
The season debut of the Hill’s Premium Meat Company 410 Sprint Cars did not disappoint as Tyler Thompson found victory lane for the first time in his 410 career. Thompson started on the pole and went unchallenged for 30 laps on his way to victory at Skagit Speedway. Robbie Price and Levi Klatt finished second and third. Price leads the points through one race with 119, Thompson is second, just four markers behind, and Trey Starks is third, 12 points back. The Hill’s Premium Meat Company 410 Sprint Cars are back again this Saturday as the road to Skagit Casino Resort's 54th Annual Jim Raper Memorial Dirt Cup at Skagit Speedway gets closer.
The Sportsman Sprint Cars return to action after two weeks off for their second race of the year. Opening night for the Sporties saw a new face in the winner’s circle, Seth Hespe, grandson of former driver and promoter Fred Brownfield. Hespe started on the pole but fell back to second early as Brett McGhie moved around him for the top spot on the opening lap. Hespe didn’t hold back and made a daring move into turn three to reclaim the top spot on lap three. From that point forward, Hespe held off any challenge from behind and claimed the top spot. Hespe leads the points standings through one race with 119 points. Jesson Jacobson sits in second (-9), and Jeff Westergard sits third (-11).
The Hornets return to Skagit Speedway for their second race of the year after having last week off. Steve Peters picked off the win during their season debut on May 2. Peters took the lead from Brian Michelson on a restart on lap 13 and cruised away to the win. Bryce Kolar and Michelson finished second and third. Peters leads the points with 120, Kolar sits second, seven points back in second, and Michelson is 16 points behind in third.
