Ed Sanger
Aberdeen, S.D. (July 24, 1979) – Drawn into the Dakotas by some high-purse specials, Iowans ran strong in the special “Cheater’s” race at the Brown County Fairgrounds track in Aberdeen.
The payoff was something else in itself, with heat wins worth $55.55 and the feature winner taking home $999.99 – and so on and so forth throughout the card.
Fastest of the Iowans was veteran Ed Sanger of Waterloo, who went home $1,000 richer by taking the feature race and one of the heats - $1,055.54 richer to be more precise.
Don Hoffman of Des Moines was second and Dick Schiltz of Waterloo, Iowa, was third, making it a clean sweep for the Iowans.
Hoffman, Ron Anderson, and Sanger were heat winners. Bill Wilson of Jamestown, N.D., was the consolation winner.
