SPOKANE, Washington – The Mission Foods Inland Northwest Sprint Car Association’s Winged Sprints take to the track at Stateline Speedway on Saturday for the fifth race of the season.

And at this midpoint of the season consistency and not race wins have paid off for the current points leader. Tony Berry of Spokane leads the points despite having not scored a race win this season,

“We’ve run well at times and know that our car package is capable of going fast, but have been plagued with issues,” according to Berry. “We had an opportunity to pick up a win last week, but faltered when the handling went away.”

“We’re getting closer to putting together the complete package every week and continue to make improvements on the car,” Berry reported. “The competition is tough in this division, but I really feel that we will be able to get at least one win before the season is over.”

The series will see the return of the cars of Kevin Burck and Rod Nelson that got pretty well mangled in a crash in their last outing on July 14th where Wes Helgeson scored his first win.

Time trials start at 6 p.m. Racing also features Northwest Legends and Street Stocks.
