The “Jim Evett Memorial” at Kings Speedway in Hanford, Calif. August 3 is next up for the USAC West Coast Sprint Cars and the series will feature a brand new point leader. Danny Faria Jr. of Tipton, Calif. has a four-point lead over Ryan Bernal after finishing second in Saturday night’s 30-lap feature at Hanford.

Troy Rutherford of Ojai, Calif. led the final 14 laps of Saturday’ race in his AMSOIL/Trench Shoring TCR/Shark, beating Faria to the checkered flag. Fast qualifier Markus Niemela was third ahead of Bud Kaeding and Austin Liggett.
