March 8, 2015 1:55pm | by: Chase Stallo

Amsoil Arenacross saw a major shakeup in the point standings last night in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Points leader Jacob Hayes lost control of the points lead to Kyle Regal and is now tied with teammate Matt Goerke for second. Regal and Goerke each won a main event last night, but the overall was determined by a tie-breaker between Goerke (3-1), Regal (1-3) and Gavin Faith (2-2) with Goerke taking the overall. Regal now holds a one point lead over Hayes and Goerke.

In West Region Lites, Daniel Blair extended his points lead with a win over Josh Cartwright and Dave Ginolfi. Blair now holds a nineteen point lead over Cody VanBuskirk after five of nine rounds.
