for the lead Thursday night in the second preliminary feature of the 6th
Annual King of 360’s Winternationals at East Bay Raceway Park. In the closing
laps of the 25-lap A-Main, Shane Stewart, driving the ‘MIN’ Motorsports
sponsored no. 4m one-year old Maxim powered by a WesMar on Hoosier tires
and Penske shocks, made a groove just inches from the outside wall work
for him to hold off hard-charging Terry McCarl and capture his first win-ever
at East Bay worth $1,500. “I owe this one to my crew, Rob and Cathy Hart,
who have been with me for two years. I’m just sorry my car owner, Scott
