PEORIA, Ariz. (October 14, 2017) It didn’t take long for Colton Hardy to find the front of the line at Canyon Speedway Park, as the Phoenix, Ariz. shoe hustled to his third ASCS Southwest Regional score of the 2017 season in the Bandit Racing No. 74.
Taking the green from eighth, Hardy took over the top spot from James Aragon with five laps complete. Leading the remainder of Saturday feature event, Hardy was followed to the line by Rick Ziehl with Josh Shipley third.
Aragon slipped back to fourth with Nick Parker making the top-five. Lance Norick sixth was trailed by Mason Keefer, Derrik Ortega, Steve Cushman, and Darrell Sickles to round out the top-ten.
