American Top 3 At Palmerston North
Author : Evan Griffen
The International Sprintcar Series was held at Robertson Holden International Speedway with 18 cars present. Slammin Sammy Swindell won the 30 lapper a-main after a awesome battle with second placed Ricky Logan. Fellow American Jonathan Allard finished third to round out an all american podium. First kiwi home was current New Zealand Champion Dean Brindle.
Points going into the final round at Wellington Saturday is Jonathan Allard on 58 points, Ryan O'Conner 52 points, Dean Brindle 51 pts, Swindell 39 pts, Wakeling 32 pts and Logan 31 pts.
More of a full indepth article will follow very soon.

Alot of these tracks in New Zealand and Australia would be oustanding if they put some banking into the track and widened the racing groove.

That is your basic flat track rubber down racing there. Sammy was definately faster, he showed a lot of patience.

Twenty8 I thought he was going to get arrested for stalking Ricky Logan
Hell of a lot of patience to wait for the pass

It actually was pretty good action with Logan and Swindell even with the rubber down surface. They would be flying around that place though if they had about 10-12 degrees of banking and more room to race. I always wondered why so many tracks down in that part of the world are so flat.

What a fantastic facility. Thousands of seats and if you run out of seats, its kind of like Eldora in that you can sit in the grass, especially in turns 1 and 2. Not many places like that in the U.S. But yeah, the track is a little flat, but that's what wings are for I guess.

Looked to me like Swindell was fast as Ricky above the rubber, says a little bit about Sammy.
Hell that says a LOT about Logan! He was even holding Allard up!
