Meanwhile, the Speedway portion was a

the Scratch main, and Andy "The Enforcer "
Northrop was the Handicap winner.
Afte r t he heat races , t he first sem i had
5haun Harma tiuk o n the pole, with " Flyin'
Mike" Faria in two, and "Fast" Ed Castro and
Scotty "The Dominato r " Brant in th ree and
four. Faria got out on top, w ith Brant on his

40th Anniversary
Schwam in two, Charlie "The Edge" Venegas
in thr ee and Manchester in fo ur. Venegas got
the gate, but Manchester quickly too k the lead,
and those tw o captured the top transfer spots
for the main. Schwartz and Krips were headed
for the Le Q.
The pole went to Krips as they lined up for
the lCQ, but Cast ro, com ing out of two, was
not to be denied. He went out on top an d
never looked back. The final spot in the Scratch
main was his.
The dra w for the main was done on the line,
and Manchester drew the pole, with Castro in
two and Brant in three. On t he outside we re
Venegas and Faria . It was gat e and race to
Manchester, though not without a fight from
current National champ Brant, who went
inside, outside and all around the park trying to
find a way aroun d Manchester. Unfortu nately,
the track is sma ll and t he race is short, and
Brant would have to settle for second. Faria
picked up the show money, and Venegas and
Krips rounded out the field.
