August 8, 2009 Results

Greg Alexander wins at Santa Maria
The third and final Grand Slam 360 sprint car race was run on Saturday August 8th at Santa Maria Speedway. That night saw 31 of the top 360 sprint cars in attendance to go for the $2,000 first place prize. Drivers from VRA, Bandits and WCS series all were there to see who would come out on top at the end of the night.

There four heat races run that night. Wins went to Johnathon Henry, Greg Alexander, Chris Wakim and Rick Hendrix. These and the second thru fourth place drivers all transferred directly to the 30 lap feature. One fifteen lap semi main was run with the win going to Davey Pombo. Also transferring to the feature were Chris Ennis, Greg Taylor, Brandon Thomson, Kevin Kierce and Michael Steele making the starting field 22 cars.
Taylor and firs alternate Hobie Conway were unable to make the race so second alternate Bruce Douglass was added to the field..

The 30 lap feature saw the front row of Greg Alexander and Rick Hendrix jump out and lead the early laps. Alexander would never be headed and take the win in the Stansberry number 75. Following him across the line were Danny Faria who came from 11th place starting position, Rick Hendrix, Chris Ennis and Chris Wakim. The race was halted for two hard crashes that eliminated VRA point leader Kevin Kierce and series point leader Johnathon Henry. Henry was running second on lap 23 and closing on Alexander when something happened to his car and it went directly into the first turn and flipped, bringing out the red flag. He emerged from the car unhurt, but his night and series championship dreams were over. Kierce suffered a mechanical issue ion the front straight and was rammed in the rear by another car. Kierce’s car ended up on the first turn wall leaning at a sharp angle.

With Henry’s accident in the feature, Davey Pombo who was running second in series points and scored a seventh place finish, moved into the point’s lead and took the three race series championship for 2009 by ten points over Henry. Following Henry were Danny Faria, Troy Rutherford and Rick Hendrix.
