Mike Martin earns 'Birthday Bash' prize at Canyon
By USAC Media (Peoria, AZ) -- Starting third, "The Magic Man" Mike Martin (Yuma, AZ) worked his way past Brody Roa on lap 27 and powered to the "CSP Birthday Bash" win at Canyon Speedway Park.
Racing his #16 Naquin Precision Earth Moving / American Flowtech Consulting Services Maxim, Martin's 30-lap triumph was his first Sands Chevrolet USAC SouthWest Sprint Car win of the season. Roa, fast qualifier "Chargin" Charles Davis Jr., Stevie Sussex, and hard charger R.J. Johnson rounded out the top-five drivers.
Johnson claimed the night's Saldana Racing Products Hard Charger Award / Best Passing Job honors with a fifth place run from ninth. For the second consecutive race, Matt Lundy earned the AAA Car Buying 360 bonus with an eighth place finish.
Defending champion Davis had top honors in Beaver Stripes Qualifying by posting a time of 15.373 over the 15-car roster.
The ten-lap heat race victories went to Johnson (Brown & Miller Racing Solutions First Heat) and Roa (Competition Suspension Incorporated / Ultra Shield Race Products Second Heat).
The USAC SouthWest Sprint Cars will return to action on Saturday, July 13th at Perris Auto Speedway in a co-sanctioned event with the AMSOIL USAC/CRA Sprints.
