Bandoleros and Legends raced Saturday, June 24, at Madera Speedway in California. Feature winners were Kaine Betancourt in Bandoleros and Jeremy Doss in Legends. See below for an event recap (Legends and Bandoleros only) from the track, as well as feature results.
Kaine Betancourt dominated the 20-lap INEX Bandolero feature to bolster his points lead. Lincoln’s Brandon Glick finished second in his debut followed by Andrew Williams.
A remarkable 35 INEX Legends Tour Series drivers competed on Saturday night. Taylor Mayhew raced in the Legends and won the 15-lap B-Main which advanced four cars into the 22-car feature.
Brendan Ruzbarsky of Tracy was the pole sitter for the 40-lap main event. Donny Darter of Valley Springs and Bakersfield’s Logan Chambers crashed in turn one for a caution. SRL Southwest Tour champion Jeremy Doss of Upper Lake started seventh but was up to second by lap five. Doss ran an extremely high line in turn one on numerous occasions in attempts to seize the lead.
Darter and Josh Fleming came together in turn one for a caution on lap 17. Doss capitalized when Ruzbarsky chose the inside for the restart. Doss went around the outside of Ruzbarsky to lead lap 18. Ruzbarsky and Las Vegas’ Jaron Giannini see-sawed back and forth for second place while Carson City’s Nick Halen and Las Vegas’ Cody Brown did the same for fourth.
Doss became the first repeat winner of the 2023 INEX Legends Tour Series followed by Ruzbarsky, Giannini, Brown, and Halen. Fellow Nevada driver Brendon Tracy finished sixth.
