Western Midgets Conclude on "Turkey Night"

Elliott Scores Hanford Midget Upset

The November 26 “Turkey Night Grand Prix” at Perris, Calif. concludes USAC’s 2015 calendar and brings down the curtain on a third consecutive Honda USAC Western Midget Championship for Norco, Calif. driver Ronnie Gardner.

Gardner took third in Saturday night’s 30-lap “Jim Evett Memorial” at Keller Auto Speedway at Kings Fairgrounds in Hanford, Calif., resulting in a 181-point cushion over second-ranking driver Shannon McQueen, who finished sixth at Hanford.

Cory Elliott of Bakersfield, Calif. earned his first series feature victory Saturday night in his Factory Kahne/Oilwize Special, leading all 30 laps for the victory. Sean Dodenhoff finished second ahead of Gardner, Michael Faccinto and Alex Schutte.
