For Immediate Release

PASSCAR STOCKS AND IMCA MODIFIEDS KICK OFF PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY’S 23RD SEASON!

(Perris, CA, April 9, 2018) Finally, with a good weather forecast, Perris Auto Speedway will kick off its 23rd regular-season with a quadruple header show featuring the PASSCAR Super Stocks, Street Stocks, American Factory Stocks and the IMCA Modifieds this Saturday, April 14th.  Spectator gates will open at 5:00 P.M.; with racing at 7:00.

While Saturday is the official regular-season opener, it will be the fifth points race for the IMCA Modifieds and the third points race for the three classes in PASSCAR.  Previous point producing races were held on weekend afternoons in January and February.  

On the power of a pair of second-place finishes in February, Chula Vista’s Steve Worstell has a 1-point lead over 2016 champion Mike Lerwell in the Super Stocks.  Lerwell, who calls El Cajon home, and two-time class champion Dennis Wooldridge of Riverside won the first two main events of the year.  Cherry Valley’s Danny Webster is third in points followed by Wooldridge and Beaumont’s Danny Webster.

In the Street Stocks, four-time champion Luke Dodd of Riverside holds a 10-point lead over Rancho Palos Verdes driver Chris Leventis.  Going back to the start of 2017, Dodd has amazingly won nine of the last 10 main events.  The only one he did not win was last June when he blew his engine in hot laps and had to drive a different car in the race.  After winning the season opener this year on February 10th, Dodd started 12th in the main the next day and easily drove his way to the front of the pack and onto the victory.  Temecula’s Blaine Whitson, Casey MacDonald of Riverside and Murrieta’s Stefan Davies rank third through fifth in the Street Stock championship standings.

Menifee’s Kris Carnish won his first ever American Factory Stock main event in February and heads into Saturday’s race as the point leader.  El Cajon’s Todd Fassler is two points out of the top spot.  Second-year driver Darren Veatch of Temecula is third in the championship standings and rookie Darren Myers of Buena Park is fourth.  Mike Burks of Nuevo and Ramona’s Jessica Shaffer, last year’s Barona Speedway Pure Stock “Rookie of the Year,” are tied for fifth.

After four races in the IMCA Modifieds, Winnemucca, Nevada’s Cory Sample has a 9-point lead over Hollister’s Andy Obertello.  Young off-road racer Bradley Morris of Romoland, who won the season opener in January, is third in the standings.  Morris is followed by 2016 IMCA track champion Chuck Becker of Yucaipa and two-time track Super Stock champ Terry Hershberger of Corona.

All cars will run hot laps, heats and main events on Saturday and if applicable, B Mains as well.  

Adult tickets are $15.00.  For active military members with proper id, teens 13-18 with their school id and kids 6-12, it is just $5.00.  Children 5 and under are free.  Parking on the fairgrounds is $8.00.
