The Lucas Oil USAC/CRA Sprint Cars are idle until an October 10 race at the Perris (Calif.) Auto Speedway, but that race takes on added significance now that the series point leaders are in a virtual tie!
Defending series titlist Mike Spencer of Temecula, Calif. led the final 23 laps to win Saturday night's 30-lap "Kindoll Classic" at Perris. Trailing Spencer's Grubstake storage/Madera Produce Maxim/Shaver to the checkered flag were Tony Jones, Danny Sheridan, David Cardey (from the back in a back-up car) and Garrett Hansen.
The win left Spencer tied with Cardey for the point lead, just 27 points ahead of Blake Miller and 38 ahead of Hansen. A total of 74 points are up for grabs at The PAS October 10!
Five of the remaining seven series races are at Perris, the series scheduled to conclude November 28 at the half-mile dirt oval.
