Congratulations to Jacob Gomes for earning his fifth win of the 2023 Spears SRL Southwest Tour Series season, this one in the “Allie Bakes 100″ at Irwindale Speedway. Gomes officially led every lap, but Buddy Shepherd was able to clear Gomes after a lap 64 restart. But Gomes was able to fight back in Turns 3 & 4, to just lead at the line. Gomes was able pull away to a 2.5 second victory over Austin Herzog, who tied his career best finish. Shepherd was able to hold on for third, with Dan Holtz, and Cale Kanke the top-five.
There was only one incident related yellow, which eleminted Dylan Lupton when he couldn’t avoid an incident between Jake Bollman Racing and Dylan Zampa. Gomes took home $7,833 for his victory.
