Ashton Torgerson 4th 7th at Trophy Cup Tune Up
PETERSEN MEDIA- Getting back into Sprint Car mode for the next few weeks in California, Ashton Torgerson picked up a seventh place finish in Tulare, CA on Saturday night with the Sprint Car Challenge Tour in the ‘Trophy Cup Tune Up’.

Checking in at the high-banked 1/3 mile oval in Tulare, CA, Torgerson timed the Torgerson Racing No. 02 in 4th fastest in qualifying time trials with 36 cars checked into the pit are for one final look at the track before Trophy Cup.

Lining up on the front row of his heat race, the Glendale, AZ driver slipped back to a fourth place finish which was still good enough to lock him into the 30-lap feature event, it just put him a little deeper in the starting lineup.

Lining up 16th on the starting grid, Torgerson was able to avoid an opening lap tangle in front of him as he then moved into 10th on the next restart. Once in 10th, Torgerson was able to move into eight on the fifth circuit before getting into seventh on a lap sixth restart.

Multiple stoppages and restarts on this night saw a ton of shuffling inside the Top-10 on the everchanging Thunderbowl Track conditions.

Settling into seventh at the halfway point, Torgerson chased after the Top-Five and moved into sixth on the 23rd lap. With the aforementioned stoppages hindering the race, officials opted to cut the race to 25 laps, and on the 24th lap, Torgerson slipped back to seventh where he went on to finish.

BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-69, Wins-5, Top 5’s-15, Top 10’s-42
