  PASSCAR STOCKS AND IMCA MODIFIEDS AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY SATURDAY!
By Scott Daloisio

(Perris, CA, May 7, 2018) After taking last weekend off, Perris Auto Speedway swings back into action Saturday when LKQ Pick Your Part Presents the PASSCAR Super Stocks, Street Stocks, American Factory Stocks and the IMCA Modifieds. Spectator gates will open at 5:00 P.M. with racing at 7:00.

With the exception of the Modifieds, who have run two more races than the other classes thus far in 2018, all the point races are tight with five points being the biggest leaders advantage in all three of the PASSCAR classes. The tightest battle is in the Super Stock class where a pair of San Diego County drivers, Mike Lerwell of El Cajon and Steve Worstell of Chula Vista, are only separated by one point. Lerwell, who was the class champion in 2016, won the first race of the season on February 10th and came home second last month. Worstell has two second-place finishes and a third in the first three races of the year. Cherry Valley veteran Danny Webster is third in the standings and only trails the leader by seven-points.

Riverside’s Luke Dodd, a four-time track champion who won all but one main event last year and who won the first two this season, leads rival Blaine Whitson of Temecula by five points in the Street Stock standings. Looking to make it three in a row for the year in April, Dodd was sidetracked by a flat tire that forced him to pit and restart at the back of the pack before finishing fifth. Whitson took full advantage of the opportunity to win his first PAS main event since 2016. Chris Leventis of Rancho Palos Verdes is third in the championship standings and is only eight points behind the leader.

In the Factory Stocks, Menifee’s Kris Carnish continues to lead the standings as he seeks his first ever PAS championship. In the first three races of the year, the veteran has a win, a second and a third-place finish and will bring a seven-point advantage over second-year driver Cameron Veatch of Temecula into Saturday’s race. El Cajon’s Todd Fassler, who was black flagged at the last race for losing a muffler, is third in the championship standings.

Interesting note for Saturday’s Factory Stock clash will be the fact that point leader Carnish will be competing against his girlfriend, Kris Daves, for the first time as she makes her racing debut.

Wrapping up Saturday’s card will be the IMCA Modifieds. It will be the fifth race for the class in 2018 and Winnemucca, Nevada’s Cory Sample, who has yet to finish out of the top three in the first five races, leads Yucaipa’s Chuck Becker by 16-markers in the standings. Sample who won the last race, finished second in the two races prior to that and was third in each of the first two races of the campaign. Currently third in the standings is Ohio native and two-time PAS Super Stock champ Terry Hershberger of Corona.
