Rapid City, S.D. (July 3, 1988) – Doug Wolfgang, who is rarely seen around his South Dakota home during racing season, put on a show for his home-state fans when the World of Outlaws visited Black Hills Speedway on Sunday night.
“Wolfie,” who started on the front row alongside Black Hills track record breaker Sammy Swindell, passed Swindell on the back straightaway on lap 21, then ran away from the 24-car field for his fifth World of Outlaws victory this season.
Swindell, who finished fourth, ran in second as late as the 25th circuit.
The two-time World of Outlaws champion was passed by Steve Kinser and Bobby Davis Jr. in the last five laps.
Kinser, whose winning streak was stopped at three, was in turn four when Wolfgang was taking the checkered flag.
Ten drivers bettered the Black Hills track record that Kinser set two years ago – 16.43 seconds – but the quickest time belonged to Swindell with a time of 16.141 seconds.
Danny Smith, Johnny Herrera, Andy Hillenburg, and Jeff Swindell were heat winners. Swindell won the fast dash, and Tim Monson won the B-feature.
