Cup of Gold
Rico Abreu dominated much of the feature to score his first career win in the 63rd running of the prestigious Gold Cup Race of Champions. The victory marked Abreu’s fifth career World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series triumph aboard the Abreu Vineyards No. 24 EAGLE. Rico quick timed both nights before claiming his second win of the season to go along with his victory at the Ironman 55 in Pevely during the month of August. “This is pretty awesome and a special feeling to win the Gold Cup,” Abreu commented with a big smile after the race. “Hats off to my guys for all their hard work and for giving me a great car tonight.”

In the third try this season, the Empire Super Sprints (ESS) were hosted by Can-Am Motorsports Park. Quebec’s Steve Poirier was glad the third time was the charm as he picked up ESS career win #62. The victory all but clinched his 7th ESS championship and was the ninth time he visited victory lane for this season in his EAGLE.
