Faccinto Gets Another One Out West

BANKS, Ore. — Mitchell Faccinto became the first driver to repeat victory during the Western Sprint Car Tour when he won the 30-lap feature at Sunset Speedway on Thursday night.

Faccinto was aboard Stan Greenberg’s blue No. 37 sponsored by the Western Metal Co. He picked up $2,000 after starting from second position.

Steven Tiner finished in the second pole after starting on the pole. Justin Sanders, the victor from the night before, wagged a race long battle with Jake Wheeler and came home in the third spot.

Tiner and Faccinto would bring the twenty-car starting field down for the green, but Colby Copeland would spin in the third turn and came a complete restart.  On the restart, Faccinto would use a pass line pass in the first turn to overtake Tiner.

Faccinto then sent sail around the red clay quarter-mile oval. The race would slow again on lap three with a single-car spin in the fourth turn. Once again, Faccinto had a clear track but that would quickly go away as he came up on slower cars.

Faccinto would use caution working lapped traffic allowing Tiner to catch up and at one point got along side of Faccinto as both cars exited the fourth turn. Tiner, however, had the same slower cars to deal with and never had another shot at the leader.

The race would slow again when a car tagged the fourth turn wall on lap 16. The caution left Faccinto a clear track on the restart and he clicked off the remaining laps without a challenge.

Sanders got around Wheeler on lap 26 with a turn one pass. The leaders choose the high groove around the tiny bullring and there were no position changes after that.
