ASCS Southwest On Tap at Arizona Speedway
TULSA, Okla. (October 5, 2015) Coming off a successful weekend in New Mexico at the Aztec Speedway, the ASCS Southwest Region returns to the Phoenix metropolitan area on Saturday, October 10 at the Arizona Speedway in Queen Creek.
Upping the purse on the Saturday showdown, drivers can expect a $1,500 to win, $250 to start A-Feature with track promoter, Jonah Trussel, offering an extra $100 cash to every car that makes the trip from out of state.
A track that seems to fit the driving style of Bob Ream, Jr., two of his three wins on the 2015 season have come at the three-eighths mile oval. Currently second in tour standings, Ream trails Rick Ziehl by 76 markers. Three wins so far in 2015, the Las Cruces, N.M. shoe has only been able to reel in a pair of runner-up finishes at the Arizona Speedway.
Entering this past weekend’s Joe Herrera Memorial with Ryan Linder behind by only six, Lance Norick finds his position challenged further as only two markers separate the two. Norick’s best finish at the Arizona Speedway is a runner-up on June 6 and has finished in the top five in the tour’s last three stop. Linder’s trio of top-tens at the Arizona Speedway includes a runner-up in the series last race on August 29.
Picking up the win on June 9 at the Arizona Speedway, Casey Buckman currently rounds out the top-five in tour standings with Kaylene Verville, Darrell Sickles, James Mosher, Cody Sickles, and Joshua Williams making up the top-ten.
Saturday, October 10 at the Arizona Speedway is scheduled to begin at 7:00 P.M. (MT) and includes Mod Lites, X-Mods, and Bombers. More information on the Arizona Speedway can be found online at http://www.arizonaspeedway.net.
Three nights of racing remain in the 2015 lineup for the ASCS Southwest Region with two of those nights at the Arizona Speedway in Queen Creek, Ariz. on Saturday, October 10 and Saturday, November 7. Between the two is a trip to the Cocopah Speedway on Saturday, October 31.
