Mike Strevel, OWENDALE, Mich. (August 27, 2011) – In front of a capacity crowd at Owendale Speedway, Dain Naida took the checkered flag in the Engine Pro ASCS Sprints on Dirt Presented by ARP main event at the racy 1/4 mile oval.
A field of 21 winged sprint cars made the second appearance for the 2011 season at the fast Michigan oval.
