ALGER, Wash. — It was a packed house on Skagit Speedway as the crowd crammed in to watch racing and the Les Schwab Fireworks Show under sunny skies.
Jesse Schlotfeldt came out on top of the 360 sprint car main event before the night sky erupted with one of the best fireworks displays seen in years.
The night looked to belong to Trey Starks, who came in having finished no worse than second place in five 360 nights at Skagit Speedway on the year. Starks led 29 ¾ of the race, but it was that ¾ number that jumped up and bit him in the end.
Having taken the white flag, Starks looked to cruise to the win – that was until contact with a lapped car sent Starks spinning before he could cross the flag stand one more time, denying him the win on the night.
Schlotfeldt had been running second and desperately trying to find a way to close on Trey was handed the top spot and took full advantage of his boon by leading the final two laps around to score the victory.
Levi Hillier came in second while Jason Solwold was third. After swapping an engine after hot laps, reigning ASCS champion Seth Bergman drove from 14th to fourth.
An eventful main event in the modifieds ended with Cole Logan grabbing his second win of the year.
