Madsen Stops Swindell Streak on Night 1 at Skagit Speedway
Attrition takes toll on top-five cars, including two drivers in the hunt for Outlaws title
ALGER, Wash. — Aug. 31, 2012 — Once Kerry Madsen crossed the finish line with the checkered flag waving behind him, it was safe to breathe.
Up to that point, not so much.
Five drivers had a bid for the victory end in contact or mechanical failure during World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series action on Friday evening at Skagit Speedway, which wraps up the Outlaws schedule in Washington on Saturday. Opening Ceremonies are slated for 7 p.m.
Madsen overcame a near mess of his own after colliding with Donny Schatz for the lead on a restart en route to his fourth World of Outlaws feature win of the season.
