The USAC West Coast Sprint Cars return to Kings Speedway in Hanford, Calif. Saturday and thirty points separate the title combatants Ryan Bernal and Richard Vander Weerd.
Bernal has a near-perfect record this season with five wins and two seconds in seven races! He won at Hanford in May, a race featuring four different lap leaders. He has a string of three wins in a row.
Vander Weerd has a pair of wins and three seconds but was 18th (last) in the May race at Hanford.
So dominant have been Bernal and Vander Weerd this year that nobody else has a win so far!
Danny Faria Jr. has compiled seven straight finishes between fourth and eighth and was fourth in the May Kings feature.
