CONCORD, N.C. – Sept. 28, 2011 – This week’s episode of 4Wide.TV includes the highlights from Joey Saldana’s triumphant return to World of Outlaws Sprint Car competition plus video highlights from DIRTcar racing in the Midwest.
Click here to see Saldana’s first race back at Hartford Motor Speedway on Wednesday night, where fellow drivers and fans saw the “Brownsburg Bullet” at his best. The #9 machine rode the cushion to victory, his first time behind the wheel in two months as he recovered from injuries sustained at the Kings Royal back in July. However, Friday the series took on the high banks of Eldora Speedway, a track that has brought Saldana some of his greatest wins and harshest wrecks. Not fear, nerves or even the retaining wall could trump Saldana’s confidence behind the wheel, and for the second event in a row, the Kasey Kahne Racing Red Bull #9 was back in victory lane. The series then headed east to Lernerville Speedway on Saturday night for the Commonwealth Clash. Saldana couldn’t make it three for three, but defending champion Jason Meyers made his fifth trip of the season to victory lane.
