Hornets Dazzle In Elko Debut
By Jim Burns
Elko, MN May 23, 2003--With the fans focusing on a lengthy Memorial weekend holiday, Elko Speedway focused on the debut of the new Hornet class, and the results were the same...FUN, FUN FUN!!! The 4-cylinder, front wheel drive class joins the Cruisers as the main "racing ingredients" to the six event EVE OF DESTRUCTION schedule and if the first action was any indication, it will be a hit with fans and drivers alike!
With 18 entries, the "buzz" roared in two exciting Heats with Faribaults' Ron Churchill and Lakeville's Mark Storlie grabbing the wins. In the Feature, Churchill and Northfield's Dusty Parrott and Storlie waged a 20 lap war, with Churchill earning the win.
In other EVE of DESTRUCTION results, Lakeville's Steve Cheever dominated both Figure Eight features earning a clean sweep, with the Roll Over contest won by Dundas' Adam Amiot, Hopkins Harland Countryman paced the Spectator Drags and the Elko tandem of Bob Wohlstade and Jeff Baker winning the madcap CRUISER main.
