Michael wins at new Vado Speedway in thriller
Michael made it two wins in a row with a crazy finish at Vado Speedway. Michael took the lead with a slider on Rick Ziehl about 10 laps into the race. On Lap 20 as Michael was slowed by some cars he was lapping, Ziehl closed in and drove his car into turn 3 so hard that he slid up and hit Michael in the Left rear breaking the LR shock and radius rod. At this point Michael had lapped the field up to 5th place. As he nursed his car around the track for the last 5 laps Ziehl and Don Grable got together running 1st and 2nd and Ziehl pulled off the track. Now Grable was also nursing a broken car around the track and Michael passed him on the last lap for a very unexpected win. After the race Michael celebrated the win in the pits with his Dad, Crew Chief Luigi and owner of Vado Speedway Royal Jones. Jones said that was the best non wing main event he has ever seen.
