Donny Schatz Wins Hard Fought Mini Gold Cup Victory
It was the second win in a week for Schatz as he took over the points lead
CHICO, Calif. – March 28, 2015 – Donny Schatz scored his third win of the season Saturday night at Silver Dollar Speedway‘s Mini Gold Cup, but his competition did not make it easy for him.
Schatz led the field through the opening laps in his No. 15 Bad Boy Buggies car and held off Daryn Pittman as a series of cautions flew. The first caution came on lap four, followed by one on lap nine and then on the subsequent restart attempt. After Rico Abreu got off track and brought out the caution on lap 11, Kerry Madsen was able to battle past Pittman to take over the second position. Terry McCarl brought out a pivotal caution on lap 18 as he spun into the infield off of turn two.
As the field returned to green, Kerry Madsen got his opportunity to take on Schatz.
