Inside Line Promotions – BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (March 26, 2018) – Sides Motorsports picked up a pair of heat race victories last Saturday at Bakersfield Speedway during a World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series show.
Both Jason Sides and Tim Kaeding had strong starts to the night as Kaeding timed in second quickest with Sides posting a season-best third-place effort in time trials. Sides and Kaeding followed that up by each winning a heat race to lock into the dash.
“Qualifying sets everything up and then to win a heat race and make the dash is the first goal of every night,” Sides said. “This was the best night Tim and I had going during this West Coast swing.”
Kaeding placed fourth in the dash while Sides ended eighth.
“Tim was starting toward the front in the A Main so we mostly left his car alone, but we tightened mine up,” Sides said. “I think Tim had a top-five car, but someone drove through him and broke his left rear shock.”
Kaeding spent most of the race battling between third and 10th place with wild restarts jumbling up the field. He closed the race with a 10th-place finish, which marked his third straight top 10.
Sides struggled with a tight race car and he faded to an 18th-place result.
“I want to thank Tim for driving for us the last few weeks,” he said. “It was a lot of fun working with him and he did a great job of running well.”
Sides will be off this weekend before resuming competition on April 7 at Arizona Speedway in Queen Creek, Ariz., during the Arizona Desert Shootout with the World of Outlaws.
