USAC
/ CRA Series Set For Bigger 2005 |
|
|
(JANUARY 6, 2005 Fair Oaks,
CA) … The United
States Auto Club is putting the finishing touches on the
2005 California Racing Association sprint car calendar.
Presently 39 dates make up the 2005 USAC-CRA racing
schedule, highlighted by the Perris Oval Nationals which
will take place November 3-5 at the "home track"
for the traveling non-wing dirt series. Perris Auto
Speedway (The PAS) will host 22 races this season
beginning with a day show on Saturday February 5th, 2005.
The prestigious Western World Championship at Manzanita
Speedway is a huge part of seven dates contested in the
Phoenix, Arizona market. Ventura Raceway at Seaside Park
will allow race fans to breathe maritime air and watch
sprint cars on the tight 1/5-mile bullring on three 2005
occasions.
Skagit Speedway returns to the USAC-CRA slate with two
dates in the Great Northwest. The Alger, Washington
racetrack has been reconfigured for 2005 to produce better
racing for the 800 horsepower sprinters. Additional
efforts are being made at press time to add two dates that
would take place during the USAC-CRA series Northwest
Tour.
Kings Speedway in Hanford, CA. has two USAC-CRA races. The
'King of the Dirt Tracks' will host Rip Williams, Damion
Gardner, Mike Kirby, Cory Kruseman, and the rest of the
USAC CRA stars on June 4th, and August 13th respectively.
A new venue in 2005 will be the Santa Maria Speedway.
Located along the central coast of California, the fast,
high-banked 1/3 mile track has long been a favorite of
Western race fans. Santa Maria will be the site of two
summer dates, allowing teams a chance to cool off near the
Pacific Ocean. Bakersfield Speedway in Oildale has a
single date (March 12th).
The 2005 schedule opens early on January 29th at 'Manzy'.
The Saturday night race will compliment the USAC action
taking place in the Copper World Classic at Phoenix
International Raceway.
