Cole
Nabs First Win of Season at Highland; Busy Weekend Ahead
for Riggs Motorsports!
(April 25, 2012) Christopher, Illinois
driver Kevin Cole claimed his first feature win of the young
2012 racing season on Saturday night, April 21 at the Highland
Speedway in Highland, Illinois! After winning his heat race
from the tail, Kevin ran second in the dash to earn a front
row starting spot in the 25-lap UMP weekly main event. Kevin
took the lead on a couple of different occasions in the
wild race and eventually outlasted Dan Jacober, Frankie
Martin, Chad Zobrist, and Kerry Gaultney to take home the
win!
Scott James was also in action representing Riggs Motorsports
over the April 20-21 weekend. On Friday night, the #81
team found themselves in the pit area at the Moler Raceway
Park in Williamsburg, Ohio for a $1,100 to win weekly
program. Scott ran second in his heat race prior to notching
a sixth place effort in the A-Main behind winner Jason
Jameson, Barry Doss, Wayne Chinn, Chad Stapleton, and
Duane Chamberlain. At the Florence Speedway in Union,
Kentucky on Saturday evening, Scott chose to load up following
hot laps due to the ultra-rough track conditions and scratched
from the remainder of the $2,000 to win event. Complete
results from the weekend can be viewed online at www.highlandspeedway.com
