The Inaugural West Michigan Dirt Drags event at the Ottawa County Fairgrounds saw some great racing action on Saturday. Todd James in the California Shake Blown Mud Dragster took a slim .005 Margin of Victory over Steve DeLeeuw in the Pro Outlaw category. Dave Stinson in the Outlaw stole some win lights to take the Pro Modified win over Neal Swain. Swain would also advance to the finals of Super Modified, but it would be Ohio’s David Kurtz taking the win. Dylan Beld won the Pro ATV showdown over Shocker Racing while Mike Moll turned on the win light in the Super Street final. Emily Moll (Juniors) and Megan Wittingen (Youth) both did great jobs taking wins in their respective classes. *Video & Run Sheets are now online (7-31).*
