Chico,CA — The second night of the 56th Annual Gold Cup Race of Champions saw 41 competitors sign into the pit area on a warm and sunny day. Jason Sides began the night by turning the fastest lap in time trials. He also won the dash and led the first 26 laps of the preliminary feature until Joey Saldana slipped by him with four laps to go to snag the win. It was Saldana’s second victory of the season at the 1/4-mile bullring.
