BATTLE FOR POINT LEAD SPICES SATURDAY'S ROCKY MOUNTAIN SPRINT RACE AT SALT LAKE CITY

The torrid battle for the 2005 Young Automotive Group USAC/SLVRA Rocky Mountain Sprint Car championship continues this Saturday night at the Rocky Mountain Raceways oval in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Jimmy Wysong is two points ahead of two-time USAC/SLVRA titlist Jim Waters going into this weekend's events on the 3/8-mile pavement.

Wysong has four career Rocky Mountain wins to his credit, including one this year. He's the only driver to post "top-10" finishes in all five 2005 Rocky Mountain races. Wysong has also been the fastest qualifier for the last two series events.

Waters, also with one 2005 victory already logged, has four "top-10" finishes in five starts this season.
