SAN BERNARDINO, California — Reigning champion Linny White regained the top spot in the Super Late Model point standings and Don Minut won the Pro 4 championship Saturday night at Orange Show Speedway.
White, of Colton, went into the 11th of the 14 races for the class trailing Riverside’s Mark Shackleford by 4 points and left the ASA-sanctioned quarter-mile oval 4 points ahead after he won the 50-lap main event and Shackleford finished fifth.
White drove his Excel Bed Liners Chevrolet to an 0.558 of a second win over Brett Edwards of Yucaipa, with Highland’s Glenn Cummings third and Jim Conklin of Big Bear City fourth. It was White’s fifth win of the season.
Minut, of Moreno Valley, left no doubt about who had the best car in the sixth and final race of the year for the Pro 4s. He qualified his Ford Fusion on the pole and won the 35-lap main event by two laps over David Glidewell of Riverside. Minut won the title by 14 points over La Quinta’s Keith Blomgren.
Jesse James Lawson of Big Bear City got his third win in eight starts in the San Bernardino Pick-A-Part Street Stock class, beating class leader Johnny Russo of Big Bear City by 0.398 of a second.
