Paul Field won the Trophy Dash, making a clean sweep of the race. Paul took off fast and he did not slow down until after the checkered flag.

Robert Rux blew his motor during the practice laps, which was a real unfortunate for the 88 team, that is the second motor for this season.

The next race will be at Ephrata Raceway Park, Ephrata WA. Other classes running on August 27th will be the Youth Hornets, Street Stocks and the Super Stocks / Big Cars. For information about Ephrata Raceway or lodging in the area CLICK HERE.
