20 SHOWDOWN STORY:
In
2007, Kasey Baisch & Jon Stringfellow led the field to the
green. Third place starter Dan Fitzgerald took the early lead. On
the second circuit there was a mishap between Mickey Stubbings and
Dennis Durmas in turn #2. Which ended Durmas's night. No caution.
Dan Fitzgerald had to fight challenges from 2007 Wild West Modified
Tour champion and Colorado's Jeep Berry. Caution #1 came out with
Dwain McCarty spinning out in turn #2. During that caution the eight
time tour feature winner Ricky Alvarado pulled off with drive line
problems. Which he ended with a eighteenth place finish. That put
Jeep Berry in second place with about 8 laps to go. The green flew
as Fitzgerald led Berry. Berry got around Fitzgerald for the lead.
Once Berry got out front there was no way of catching Jeep.
Colorado's Robert Gallegos was running about in the fifth position
and hit the tire at the bottom of the track. He kept it going
though. The last lap led to a great battle between 3 time Western
Region champion Dan Fitzgerald and Tour runner up Ryan Dimick. On
the last lap Dimick went from the high side to the low side to pass
Fitzgerald in turn 3. Coming to the checkers, Fitzgerald tried to
get around Utah's Ryan Dimick for second but did not have enough.
Jeep Berry won the race from the twelth starting position.
