Lorain Sandusky speedways praised safety crew and racing notes
Dudlin's curve aside we applaud Lorain County and Sandusky speedways for an efficient safety team led by Denny Schroeder and Gary Heath with Bruce at Sandusky. Gibson dominates Sandusky Speedway with a 300 bounty on his head for challengers. Elyria’s Mike Plas returns to stock car action after mechanical issues but is black flagged for running too fast.
