PLACERVILLE, Calif. — Shane Golobic made the move by Dylan Bloomfield on lap 13 and claimed his 15th career Placerville Speedway winged 360 sprint car victory on Independence Day.
Oakley’s Dylan Bloomfield set the early pace in the 25-lap Thompson’s Winged Sprint Car feature. The action was hot and heavy in the opening stages of the contest as drivers battled on every square inch of the quarter mile.
Golobic, however, ran smooth and calculated laps, until turning up the heat by moving into second on lap 11, before snatching the lead around the outside on lap 13. Once in front the former World of Outlaws winner at Placerville dominated things and grabbed the checkered flag for victory. By doing so he tied Billy Wallace and Colby Wiesz on the all-time winged 360 win list at the track.
Bloomfield crossed the stripe in second followed by Tony Gomes, row-nine starter Michael Faccinto and Austin Wood in the top five.
A large and vocal crowd also witnessed Kevin Jinkerson and Anthony Slaney scoop wins with the Red Hawk Casino Pure Stocks and Mountain Democrat Late Models, respectively.
