A DOMINANT PERFROMANCE FROM THE CINCINATTI KID – JOHN EDWARDS CRUISES TO MILLER WIN FROM THE POLE BY 14.5 SECONDS 

Joel Miller’s dominant win at the 2008 Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear season-opener at Sebring seems a distant memory in the heat of the Utah afternoon as newcomer John Edwards and the AIM Autosport team celebrate a clean sweep of Round Two at Miller Motorsports Park with the pole, leading every lap, and a 14.514-second margin of victory over 2nd-place finisher Charles Hall and a 22.136-seconds gap back to Miller in 3rd.

A DAY OF WIND, SUN AND SURPRISES AS DRIVERS IN THE STAR MAZDA
CHAMPIONSHIP COMPLETE PROMOTER TEST DAY AT MILLER MOTORSPORTS PARK

Round Two of the 2008 Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear this
weekend at Miller Motorsports Park began with a windy, sunny and surprising ‘promoter test day’ on Thursday. Interesting results were the order of the day, some of them expected, some a total surprise, such as the performance of Irishman Peter Dempsey. He served notice of his speed with a 3rd-place finish in the season opener at Sebring but was able to run only a few laps during the series’ two-day test at Miller last week due to budget constraints. Despite this handicap, he wound up at the top of the time sheets with a lap of 1:45.045 (104.458 mph) in the #21 Andersen Racing/Allied Mazda.
