Donny Schatz Scores Close Win on Night One of the FVP Western Spring Shootout
Becomes the first repeat World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series winner of 2015 and ends winless streak in California
STOCKTON, Calif. – March 21, 2015 – Shane Stewart had victory in sight as he rounded turn four on the final lap of Saturday night’s FVP Western Spring Shootout at the Stockton Dirt Track. Reigning World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series champion Donny Schatz had other things in mind though as he dove to the bottom of the track and drag raced Stewart to the finish line.
By just .220 seconds, Schatz overtook Stewart and became the first repeat winner of the 2015 season – a streak that goes back eight races – and ended his own winless streak in the State of California that stretched all the way back to September 2012.
