WESTERN HPDs AT MADERA SATURDAY;
LAMB & NOBILE SCORE HPD VICTORIES
USAC’s Western HPD Midgets take to the one-third mile paved Madera (Calif.) Speedway Saturday in the “Pombo/Sargent Classic”.
Point leader Dylan Nobile of Clovis, Calif. won Saturday night’s 30-lap feature at the Las Vegas (Nev.) Motor Speedway Bullring. He passed Cody Jessop on lap five and led the rest of the way to beat Jessop, Toni Breidinger, Dezel West and fast qualifier Jeff Kelley. That left him with a 23-point lead over Breidinger in the new series standings going into Saturday’s Madera race.
Nobile won four times at Madera last year, while Breidinger earned her first series win at Madera in 2014.
