Craig Dollansky won his third World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series A-Main of 2010 Saturday night, taking the checkered flag in the Magic City Showdown finale at Nodak Speedway in North Dakota.
“Those last couple of laps I was just trying to hang on,” said Dollansky. “Our car was good. This was a great team effort. I have Kirk Dewease with me now as my crew chief and he did a great job for us, along with my brother Troy and son Luke. This is a great team and it’s great to win for everyone that supports this team. I couldn’t be happier for everyone.”
Dollansky started sixth and worked his way around leader Kraig Kinser on lap 27 of the 30-lap event en route to his first victory at the high-banked 3/8-mile track. The Minnesota native complimented the staff of Nodak Speedway for their recent renovation efforts. “This is a beautiful facility and they spent a lot of money on the grandstand and it looks great,” he noted. “There are a lot of great fans up here and we have lot of great fans here as well. I thank all of our fans and couldn’t be happier for everyone that we picked up our third win of the year. They went out and reworked the track tonight and that was the right thing to do to put on a good show.” Jason Sides posted another strong finish, taking second after battling Steve and Kraig Kinser for the spot. “The track was pretty racy and it was a good race,” said Sides. “Kraig (Kinser) was going pretty good there and then Steve (Kinser) ran him down. It just seemed like we all got in lapped traffic and everyone caught us. For the most part it was a good race for us.” Donny Schatz finished third, Joey Saldana fourth and Mark Dobmeier fifth. Saldana leaves North Dakota with a 25-point advantage over Steve Kinser in the 2010 championship battle. The next stop on the 2010 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series schedule is at Castrol Raceway in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on August 27 and 28 for the Fourth Annual Oil City Cup.
