Inside Line Promotions – DIXON, Calif. (Oct. 16, 2019) – Blaine Baxter produced a consistent night overall in Super 600 Micro Sprint competition last Saturday night at Dixon Speedway.
“I thought we had a pretty good night,” he said. “The track was kind of tough to pass on, but I thought we did about as well as we could.”
Qualifications began the evening and Baxter was quickest until the track began to change.
“I had quick time through the first half of the field,” the 11-year-old said. “But then the track got better toward the end and I ended up fifth.”
Baxter’s qualifying time slotted him in the second starting position in his heat race.
“They watered the track before our race and that made our car too tight,” he said. “We finished third and missed the transfer to the dash by one spot.”
Baxter rolled off seventh on the feature starting grid.
“It was pretty much a single-file track with little passing,” he said. “I got to sixth and that’s where I finished.”
Baxter will take this weekend off before competing in the Turkey Bowl at Delta Speedway in Stockton, Calif., on Oct. 25-26.
“I’m looking forward to racing at Delta,” he said. “It’s a fun track. We’ve been doing well and I’ll be going into that weekend with a positive attitude, racing for a win.”
