Brooks Dominates Karmart 410 Sprint Car Main
Alger, WA - One week after running second in his Skagit Speedway debut, Landon Brooks dominated the Karmart 410 Sprint Car field for his first win at the track.
Starting on the outside of the front row, Brooks got the early drop on Jason Solwold and would keep the veteran at bay over the first few laps despite multiple restarts in the early going. Once the race got some legs under it after a lap four restart, Brooks checked out, owning a half track advantage on the field and lapping up to fifth place as he took the Shannon & Cheri Wheatley owned car to victory lane ahead of Robbie Price and defending track champion Trey Starks. This marks the third different winner in three weeks of Karmart 410 Sprint Car action. Jesse Schlotfeldt was fast time. Solwold, Price and Brooks won the heat races.
Kai Dixon won his first main event in a clean sweep of the night in the Sportsman Sprints. While Dixon ran away from the field, the story was the battle for second, with the debuting Levi Hillier chasing opening week feature winner Alden Ostrom all over the track in looking for a path past him. A late race restart saw Hillier take to the high side to clear Ostrom in a battle that thrilled the crowd and made for a final podium of Dixon, Hillier and Ostrom. Dixon set fast time and won his heat while Ostrom won heat two.
Brian Michelson stopped the run of first time winners on the night, as the veteran led the final two laps of the Hornet main for the win. Michelson led Colin Sims and first time podium visitor William Zottneck to the final finish. Brian had a fantastic night on the whole, pulling off a clean sweep of his own with fast time and a heat race win. Steve Peters drove The Battlewagon to a win in heat number two.
