Inside Line Promotions – HANFORD, Calif. (April 10, 2023) – Dominic Scelzi scored a top-five result last Saturday during the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series season opener hosted by Kings Speedway.
Scelzi kicked off the Anthony Simone Classic by qualifying seventh quickest out of the 30 entrants. He then finished where he started in a heat race – second – to advance into the dash. Scelzi gained a pair of positions to finish fifth in the dash, lining him up on the inside of the third row in the A Main.
“The track seemed to get faster later in qualifying,” he said. “We were quick time for a long time, but ended up seventh. We did what we needed to in the heat race to make the dash and moved forward in it. In the feature we ran fourth almost the whole race, but got passed on the last lap to finish fifth. We just missed it a little bit. I think we know where we could have been better.”
The fifth-place outing was Scelzi’s third straight top five to start the year.
Next up for the team is the Dennis Roth Classic this Friday and Saturday at Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, Calif. Scelzi’s family owned team will field a second car with Trey Starks behind the wheel.
“I’m really looking forward to the Dennis Roth Classic,” Scelzi said. “It’s a big event that is in honor of someone who has done so much for racing. We were second in the 410 feature and won the 360 feature last year during the Dennis Roth Classic so we’re going into it confident. It will also be great to have Trey in a second car of ours to show support for the event.”
