ANDERSON, HODGES, DOWNARD & WOOD SCORE GOLD CUP WINS AT HOT TRUCK NATIONALS 

The 22nd edition of the Bronco Motors Hot Truck Nationals featured 11 different racing and an assortment of show classes on the first leg of a double header weekend.

Congratulations to Diana Anderson who stopped Mark Kidd in a very close Super Pro final pitting a pair of Twin Falls racers. Jerry Hodges also put together a fine string of runs to win the Pro class and Scott Downard swept up the Sportman division with his half Camaro, half Firebird.

Perhaps the biggest news of the day was the Steen brothers both of which conquered the Junior Lightning and Thunder classes. Chandler and Clayton Steen stopped Charlina Lancaster and Marissa Kidd in the championship flight.
