Another exciting night at the Minneapolis Raceway is in the books and a familiar face has returned to Airgas Victory Lane.
That face is none other than Dave Hardesty, the 2 time defending champion. Hardesty sat on the outside pole position of the IMCA Modified A Feature and quickly jumped into the lead at the start. He was never challenged during the Main Event and opened a large lead at times. |
