ROCKY MOUNTAIN SPRINTS COMPETE SATURDAY
THEN FACE WESTERN STARS ON JULY 23 AT RMR

             Point leader Jimmy Wysong and the rest of the Young Automotive 
Group Rocky Mountain Sprint Car veterans will compete again this Saturday 
night at Rocky Mountain Raceways in Salt Lake City, Utah. Wysong holds a 
10-point lead over defending two-time series champion Jim Waters going into 
this week's event, which will also serve as a tune-up for the July 23 
invasion of the USAC Valvoline Western Sprint Cars at RMR.

             Wysong is the only driver to repeat as a feature winner in 
this year's series while Waters also owns a 2005 victory. Jim Campbell, 
fifth in series points, also has won this season.

             A 40-lap feature is on tap at the 3/8-mile paved oval.
