Forsberg, Egel score wins in their XXX sprint cars More main event victories were scored by XXX sprint cars this weekend. Andy Forsberg won at Placerville Speedway in California for his second win of the season and Matt Egel scored a victory in Adelaide, Australia. Forsberg had a big night on Saturday when he competed at Placerville Speedway in weekly 360 sprint car competition. Forsberg, already a winner for Triple X Race Co. on March 7th at Marysville Raceway Park, qualified fourth in time trials and finished third in his heat race to secure the fifth starting position in the main event. Forsberg needed only seven laps to move up and overtake Scott Russell for the lead. It was on that seventh lap where Forsberg's No. 92 XXX recorded the fastest lap of the race also, a 11.169 second run around the Placerville clay oval, almost four tenths of a second faster than anyone else the entire race. From there, Forsberg never looked back and cruised to the victory. Down in Australia, Matt Egel raced to a comfortable victory in his No. SA29 XXX sprint car at Speedway City in Adelaide in 410 competition. After winning his first heat race and finishing third in his second heat, Egel started the main event outside the front row, soon took the lead and didn't look back. Egel's XXX also broke a Speedway City track record in the main event, resetting the 8-lap record in a minute and 36.26 seconds, averaging 12.03 seconds per lap. His fastest lap was 11.92 seconds in that 30-lap race. Triple X Race Co. would like to congratulate Andy Forsberg and Matt Egel on their sprint car victories this weekend.
