rounds. He was charging,
but didn't have anything for
Shirey at the finish.
"The goal is always to win,
but honestly I can't be disap-
pointed because I ran really
well today," said Bell. "Dalton
was just on fire. He is now
right on my butt in points,
but it will make for an excit-
ing finish at Glen Helen and
Primm."
Yorba was disappointed
with his results, though it
was his second consecutive
podium of the season. He
wasn't a fan of the single-line
woods section.
"That section just sucked,"
said Yorba. "I lost the front end
there while I was in lead and
I fell back to sixth. I got into a
groove and got close enough at
the end of the new section, but
Robby and Dalton were just too
far ahead."
Visibility hampered Wallis'
charge, but he made the late
pass on Del Fante to net the
fourth spot. He is third in points.
"I was hoping I could catch
up to Yorba," said Wallis. "Unfor-
tunately, I tended to get behind
slower guys and it was super
dusty."
Del Fante was pleased with
his second top-five finish of the
season. "Overall it was a great
race and I'm pumped," said
WORCS pro rookie Del Fante.
In Pro 2, Travis Damon earned
his third consecutive victory and
added to his points lead. Logan
Chambers was second, followed
by Alex Dorsey, Zane Roberts
and Mitch Anderson. Damon led
every lap of the race.
"I got off to a great start," said
Damon. "I pulled off the holeshot
and never looked back. I set
a steady pace and tried not to
make any mistakes."
Chambers' fifth podium of the
season puts him just six points
behind Damon in the title chase.
"I didn't have a good start, but I
popped two wheelies and tried to
regain some speed," said Cham-
bers. "Travis just drifted away
from me, and I got stuck behind
a couple of guys, so by the time I
got to second he was gone."
Dorsey netted his third con-
secutive podium. His consis-
tency this season puts him third
in points going into the break. "I
had nothing for Travis," admitted
Dorsey.
In Pro 2 Lights, Dante Oliveira
nabbed his seventh straight
victory, followed by Clayton
Hengeveld and Connor Flatau.
Oliveira battled with Hengeveld
toward the end of the race to net
the victory.
"I pitted on the third to last
lap and Hengeveld took the
lead," said Oliveira. "He made a
mistake and I got past him. From
there I put it back up in number
one. I had to work for it this time.
Clayton was there the whole
time keeping me honest."
