KENDERDINE TAKES 2ND WIN IN 270cc MICRO SPRINTS, SCHOFFSTALL 3 FOR 3 IN SLINGSHOTS

MINERSVILLE, PA - MAY 16th, 2013

Current point leader Ed Kenderdine jumped into the lead from his pole starting position and never looked back, leading wire to wire to score his second Little Diamond Speedway victory of the season in the 20 lap 270cc Micro Sprint event. He was followed across the line by Luke Kroboth, who posted his second runner-up finish in a row, newcomer Quinn Roberts, Kevin Berger, winner of the May 2nd feature event, and newcomer Josh Schaffer.

In the accompanying 20 lap Slingshot event, Alex Schoffstall took the lead from his third starting position and led all 20 laps. The victory was the 3rd in a row for Schoffstall. To date he has led all 95 laps he has run on Little Diamond, heat races and feature events combined. Matt Miller came home in second place, followed by Tess Horvath, making her first start of the season, and Jarrett Davenport.

Only one caution flag slowed the evenings activities.
