RAINS FORCE SATURDAY EAST BAY CANCELLATION;

STOCKON EMERGES AS TOP “WINTER DIRT GAMES VI” POINT SCORER

Chase Stockon has been proclaimed “Winter Dirt Games VI” Champion after rains forced cancellation of Saturday night’s sixth and final series race at East Bay Raceway Park in Gibsonton, Fla.

A steady rain in the Tampa area today, expected to continue tonight, has created extremely wet conditions at the track. The AMSOIL USAC Sprint Car National Championship now gears up for its next race, April 4, at the Lawrenceburg (Ind.) Speedway.

Stockon posted a pair of seconds, a pair of fifths and a ninth in the five races held at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala and East Bay Raceway Park in Gibsonton to edge Kevin Thomas Jr. and Robert Ballou by 14 and 18 points respectively in the standings.

Thomas won Thursday’s East Bay feature and Ballou, who also won last week’s Ocala opener, won Friday at East Bay. Other Florida winners were Brady Bacon and Dave Darland (both at Ocala).
