16, 2006, PERRIS, CA)
When the United States Auto Club honored it’s top
West Coast drivers, car owners and teams at the Knott’s
Berry Farm Resort on Saturday, January 7, Perris Auto
Speedway promoter Don Kazarian was surprised and delighted
when he received the USAC Promoter of the Year award for the
Western States.
A
few days after winning the award, Kazarian pointed to many
others for the great season The PAS had in 2005.
“I have to thank the drivers, car owners, crews,
officials and staff for making it easy to run an efficient
and entertaining show.
Without their hard work, this award would not have
been possible.”
Kazarian smiled and added, “I also want to thank
the great sprint car fans at The PAS.
Without them, we would not be in business.
They are hardcore!
The electricity in the air when the CRA cars bump off
for the main event is incredible.
It is the same as you find at an NFL, NBA or Major
League Baseball game.”
Upon
returning to his Indianapolis office, United States Auto
Club President/CEO Rollie Helmling had a lot of praise for
Kazarian. “It
is very fitting that Don Kazarian, his staff and Perris Auto
Speedway be recognized by the United States Auto Club. The
PAS under Don’s leadership has been instrumental in the
growth of Sprint Car Racing in the United States by
presenting high quality, exciting and competitive Sprint Car
Races which racers enjoy and fans appreciate. USAC is
privileged to be able to sanction many races at the PAS and
the success and growth of the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series is
in part due to first class events always presented there.”
The former USAC car owner continued, “There is a
long and glorious tradition of great Sprint Car Racing in
Southern California and the racing at the PAS insures this
will continue for generations to come.”
The
2005 Promoter of the Year and his staff will throw the doors
open for the 2006 season on Saturday afternoon, February 4th
when Temecula Valley Pipe & Supply presents the
Valvoline USAC/CRA Sprint Cars on the famous half-mile clay
oval.
