$10.40 ADULT ADMISSION FOR TAX DAY USAC/CRA RACE AT THE PAS!
by Scott Daloisio

(APRIL 11, 2006, PERRIS, CA)  Perris Auto Speedway will help fans beat the tax day blues with a $10.40 adult ticket price when Temecula Valley Pipe & Supply presents the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars on the Riverside County clay oval this Saturday night, April 15th.

 

“We hope it will help brighten up a day many dread every year,” PAS promoter Don Kazarian said.  “It is a fun way to make note of tax day and it is a small reward to the fans who spend their Saturday nights with us.”

 

Those attending will see another great show of the highly competitive, intense series that continues to grow.  Two years ago when the USAC/CRA series was born, some car counts were in the low twenties.  Through four shows at The PAS this year the field has averaged 43.75 cars.  The season high was 57 cars at the race taped for the Outdoor Channel’s “USAC Thunder” television show.  The low has been 38 cars. 

 

Heading into this week’s race, Ventura, California’s Cory Kruseman leads Concord, California’s Damion Gardner by 26-points in the standings.  Two weeks ago at The PAS, the rivals tangled in the main event resulting in a flat right rear tire for Gardner that sent him careening into the turn two crash wall and out of the race.  He finished 21st.  It was Gardner’s only finish worse than fourth all season long.  Kruseman went on to finish second that night and as of yet, has not finished worse than fourth this year.

 

Last Saturday night at USA Race Park in Tucson, Arizona, Kruseman halted Gardner’s fast qualifying streak at seven races (stretching back to last November).  However, in the main event Gardner, who was third fast qualifier, notched his series leading third win on the year when he beat Buckeye, Arizona’s Charles Davis Jr. and Kruseman to the checkered flag.  PAS locals Tony Jones of Norco and David Cardey of Riverside rounded out the top five.

 

Saturday’s “Beat the Tax Day Blahs” race will consist of qualifying, four heat races comprised of ten laps each, preliminary C (if necessary) & B mains and a 30-lap A main event.  Advance tickets are available by calling 1-800-595-4849.  You can also order advance tickets on the Internet at tix.com or perrisautospeedway.com.

 

Perris Auto Speedway is located on the freeway close Lake Perris Fairgrounds approximately one hour east of Los Angeles and one hour North of San Diego.  To get to the track, take the 215 freeway, exit on the Ramona Expressway and go two miles east to the fairgrounds.

 

Saturday’s race on the only half-mile clay oval in Riverside County will be preceded by Friday’s drag racing action on the Diamond Valley Honda Street Legal Drag Strip.  The drag strip is also located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds.  Anyone with a valid driver’s license, registration and helmet is eligible to race at the drag strip.  Gates at the drag strip open at 5:00 PM with racing at 6:00 PM.
