ERIC HOLMES HAMMERS NASCAR WEST COMPETITION

ERIE, Colorado – A victory in the Toyota/NAPA 150 at Colorado National Speedway on Saturday night gave Eric Holmes his third win in five races this season in the NASCAR Camping World Series West.

Holmes, who started on the pole, had to battle back after long-time nemesis Mike David slipped by him just after a lap 26 restart. Holmes demonstrated the dominance of his NAPA Auto Parts Toyota, however, charging past David on the outside after a subsequent restart. He paced the field the final 100 laps to the finish.

David took the runner-up spot, with Jason Bowles in third. Mike Gallegos had a career-best fourth-place finish, followed by fifth-place finisher Daryl Harr, who equaled his career-best mark.

Despite Holmes’ dominance this season, he continues to trail his David in the championship standings. Holmes closed ground slightly on David, narrowing the points margin to just 35 markers.
