 Press Release

This Saturday At Ventura Raceway

(Oxnard, CA 9/26/06)  Ventura Raceway continues its 2006 racing season this Saturday night September 30, at 5:30pm  with a full program of open wheel and stock car racing at its Ventura County Fairgrounds Facility in Ventura, CA.  Four adult classes and one junior Class will highlight the night’s racing action.

Headlining the night will be the VRA 360 Sprint Cars, led by season point’s leader Luis Espinoza.  Last race winner Derek Buckley, who took his first ever win on September 23, Kevin Kierce, Greg Taylor, Jimmy Crawford, Chris Wakim and a host of other fine sprint car drivers will all be there to entertain the fans in attendance with some of the best short track sprint car racing to be seen anywhere.  This program will feature four heat races, semi main events and a thirty lap main event. 

Also on the agenda for Saturday night are the USAC Midgets.  These high-powered racers always put on exciting racing whenever they come to Ventura.  Garrett Hansen, Robby Flock, Chris Rahe, and Tyler Brown have all taken wins here so far in 2006.  They will be back to challenge point leaders Jerome Rodela and Chase Barber on Ventura’s tight 1/5 mile track.

VRA/USAC Ford Focus Midgets will also be on the racing card this weekend.  These self-starting midget racers are always crowd favorites as they race around Ventura’s tight 1/5 mile oval.  Keith Janca leads Chris Veach by only two points in their season long point’s battle.  They will both be here on Saturday to battle to see who will be on top after the night’s racing.  All the rest of the Ford Focus stars will also be there to try to gain on them.

Our final adult class for this Saturday is the VRA Pony Stocks.  This is an entry-level class for four cylinder American and foreign stock cars.  Jack Hoyt is the current point leader will be here to keep the rest of the drivers in this class behind him.     So far all the wins in this class have been by front wheel drive cars.  Can a rear wheel drive car win this weekend?  Only time will tell. 

The final class racing this weekend will be the VRA Junior Focus racers.  The last time that these 13-16 year old racers raced, point leader Robbie Josett took the win.  He will be here to go for two in a row Saturday.

Front gates open at 3:30pm. Pit gates open at 12 noon.  Admission prices are: Adults: $14.00, Seniors, Military and Juniors: $11.00, Children 7-12: $5.00 and kids 6 and under free.  For more information, give Ventura Raceway a call at (805) 985-5433 Monday through Friday from 8:00am-5: 00pm
