Golobic Wins Pacific Cup at Silver Dollar Speedway
Chico, CA — So far this season Shane Golobic has been on a mission at Silver Dollar Speedway and that continued Wednesday night when the reigning track champion captured the SCCT sanctioned Pacific Sprint Cup for the second straight year.
Golobic made the winning move past Andy Forsberg on lap six and held off all challengers working lapped traffic to perfection. It marked his 13th career Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour presented by Abreu Vineyards triumph, which ranks number one all-time.
Andy Forsberg led the field to green after winning the High Sierra Industries Dash and held command early on. A few stoppages occurred early but after a lap three restart the remainder went green to checkered.
Golobic hounded Forsberg looking to find a way by and got to his inside with six laps complete. After that Golobic worked traffic well but had to hit his marks as Forsberg closed in on numerous occasions.
As he always does, Golobic never faltered and accepted the checkered flag for victory over Forsberg and Lincoln’s Tanner Carrick who rounded out the podium. It was Golobic’s fourth win in five races at Silver Dollar Speedway this season.
Penngrove’s Chase Johnson crossed the stripe in fourth with Garth Moore Insurance Rookie of the Year leader Chance Grasty putting together an impressive run in fifth. Elk Grove’s Kyle Larson ran sixth, followed by Pit Stop USA Hard Charger Shane Hopkins, who stormed through the field from 22nd to seventh.
Tucson, Arizona’s Nick Parker, Aromas’ Justin Sanders and 23rd starter Jonathan Allard completed the top-10.
A total of 55 cars competed on opening night of the 69th Gold Cup Race of Champions. Kyle Larson opened the night by earning the Sierra Foothills Wine Services Fast Time Award with a lap of 11.788 around the quarter mile.
The Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour presented by Abreu Vineyards returns to action during the 12th running of the Adobe Cup at Petaluma Speedway on September 23rd.
