WICHITA FALLS, Texas — On a cold and windy evening at the Monarch Motor Speedway on Friday, Rodney Sanders gave race fans a spectacular show as he captured the win in the first event for the new American Racer USRA Modified Series presented by Day Motor Sports. He took third from Davis four laps later and snuck by Flower Mound’s Kevin Rutherford for second with 16 laps complete. With two lapped cars separating Thomas and Sanders, the race’s sixth caution with nine laps to go erased a healthy advantage for the leader and Sanders capitalized on his good fortune. After searching for a way around the high-flying leader for three laps, Sanders slid by on lap 20 and battled Thomas back to the flag stand.
