It’s Heath Again During Montana Round Up

GREAT FALLS, Mont. – Colton Heath is two-for-two during the 26th annual Montana Round Up.

Heath captured the 360ci winged sprint car feature victory for the second straight night on Saturday at Electric City Speedway.

Tyler Thompson led the main event early before Heath took the top spot near the midpoint of the race. He then held off a pair of hard charging drivers to garner the trip into victory lane.

Garen Linder hustled from 10th to second place – his second straight night with a runner-up result to Heath – and J.J. Hickle was the Hard Charger Award winner after rallying from 16th to third place. Tanner Holmes placed fourth for the second consecutive night and Jason Solwold won the B Main before maneuvering from 17th to fifth in the A Main.

Heath, Cam Smith, Greg Hamilton and Chance Crum were the heat race winners out of the 31-driver field.

The final night of the 26th annual Montana Round Up is Sunday beginning with hot laps at 7 p.m. IMCA Modifieds and WISSOTA Super Stocks are part of the race program along with the sprint cars.

There are limited grandstand tickets available at the front gate as well as pit passes. Additionally, a live video stream featuring the wheel-to-wheel competition is available at www.ElectricCitySpeedway.TV.
