BRANDON WHITE GETS SECOND POLE OF 2010 AT ORANGE SHOW

White drives for Ron Sutton’s Winner’s Circle with sponsorship from North Coast Lighting & Electric, Inc.  The second year RSWC driver is campaigning in the entire USAC Western Young Guns series on asphalt which includes both NorCal and SoCal divisions.

 

White qualified first with a lap of 13.751 seconds around the quarter-mile asphalt oval.  His other pole of 2010 was recorded on March 27 at I-10 Speedway.

 

The lap qualified him for the trophy dash where he finished third.

 

In previous visits to the low-banked track, White noted that they had put down syrup to make a top groove.  On Saturday night, the track was syrup-free, making passing a difficulty.

 

White took his time going from sixth on the grid.  After a wild battle for fourth, White set his sights on third place and teammate Tanner Long.  White stuck his nose underneath Long but broke loose, spinning out.

 

With just five laps left in the race, White was only able to make one more pass and settle for fifth place.

 

The fifth place finish dropped White seven points behind points leader and teammate Austin Farley in the USAC SoCal standings.  White is comfortably in control of the Western Pavement and NorCal divisions however.

 

“Brandon’s almost ready to move into the full Focuses,” Driver Coach Ron Sutton said.  “When he turns 14 it’s going to be like letting an animal out of its cage!”

 

White will test a full Ford Focus Midget throughout the late summer with his 14th birthday coming up on September 24.  His series debut is tentatively slated for November 6 at the Las Vegas Nationals event.
