Boyd runs away from the field at Speedway WHITE CITY � There was no stopping � or catching � Bob Boyd on Sunday at the Southern Oregon Speedway. The Albany driver led from start to finish of the 50-lap Bud Cup feature, taking the checkered flag and $2,000 in the process. Boyd won $1,500 in cash for the race and another $500 for leading the most laps. The 50-lap feature was the culmination of the inaugural event, which drew top drivers from around the Northwest and California. A total of 74 cars took part in the open competition, which included liberal rules for car and tire specifications. While the open competition drew drivers from outside the area, the weekend also included a large group of the track�s regular drivers. Jim Hill of Grants Pass wrapped up a fine season with a win in the Mini Bud Cup. Hill bested a field of 23 mini stocks and super trucks � including John Wayne Cahill and Patrick Lanigan at the finish line � to win the 25-lap feature and $300 for his efforts. Medford�s Cal Lanfear Jr. took Saturday night�s main event, the Rapp Racing Race of Champions. The race was open to pro stock feature winners from the 2000 season plus defending champion Brian Poppa.
