Oregon, Wis. (April 24, 1988) – Rich Vogler outdistanced Stan Fox to win the USAC National Midget Series 30-lap feature Sunday afternoon at Impact Speedway.
Mel Kenyon charged out to the early lead, but Vogler took command on the fifth round. Vogler continued to dominate until the 27th lap when Paul Clark flipped, bringing out the red flag. Clark was treated at the track then flown by helicopter to University Trauma Center in Madsion with apparent head injuries.
When the race resumed, Vogler retained the lead but had to hold off the challenges provided by Fox in the waning laps. Vogler took the checkered ahead of Fox and Kevin Doty. Kenyon and Johnny Parsons filled out the front five.
Parson’s fifth place finish enabled him to hold a slim 10-point lead over Kenyon in the series point standings.
