DYKSTRA WINS SOS VS. OHSWEKEN CHALLENGE RACE

By Tommy Goudge (July 1, 2016) - Dylan Westbrook looked to finally have his first 360 Sprint Car A-Feature win within his grasp after several close calls in the past, but Dave Dykstra had other plans in the 25 lap race. Westbrook worked well through traffic and a heavy track surface for most of the race, but Dykstra worked hard to keep the leader in sight, and capitalized when Westbrook’s momentum was broken in traffic.

Dykstra stuck with the treacherous and fast top groove, and moved around the outside of Westbrook as the two drivers raced under the white flag. Dykstra stayed ahead to claim his first win since 2011, while Westbrook settled for the runner-up spot ahead of Jim Huppunen, Cory Turner, and Mitch Brown.
