Sprint
Cars, Stock Cars, Bicycle Giveaways, and
Jimmy Oskie Meet & Greet This Saturday at
Perris Auto Speedway By Scott
Daloisio
Perris, California — June 17,
2026 — After one week off, Perris
Auto Speedway roars back into action this
Saturday, June 20th, when Heimark
Distributors Anheuser-Busch presents the
return of the Avanti Windows and Doors
USAC/CRA Sprint Cars along with the
PASSCAR Super Stocks, Street Stocks, and
American Factory Stocks. In addition to
the exciting racing action on the famous
Riverside County half-mile clay oval,
three kids’ bicycles will be given away to
lucky young fans, and five-time CRA Sprint
Car Champion and National Sprint Car Hall
of Famer Jimmy Oskie will be on hand to
meet fans, sign autographs, and pose for
photos before the races.

“It is going to be a fun night,”
promoter Don Kazarian said. “Four classes
of racing, kids dance battle, T-shirt
launches, heat race hero’s contest where
fans can win tickets to upcoming races
will all be part of the show, and we are
giving away more bicycles. There is
something for everyone.”
For the
bicycle giveaways, every fan entering the
track will receive a raffle ticket.
Immediately following the Kids Dance
Battle at intermission, three lucky
tickets will be drawn, and each winner
will take home a brand-new kids’ bicycle.

If the fun for the kids,
bicycle giveaways, and thrilling racing
action are not enough, fans will also have
the opportunity to meet one of the
all-time greats in West Coast sprint car
racing history, Jimmy Oskie, before the
races.
Thanks to USAC/CRA publicist
Lance Jennings, Jimmy Oskie will be on
hand to meet fans and sign autographs,”
Kazarian stated. “The original CRA began
just after World War II. It eventually
morphed into the SCRA and now into
USAC/CRA. In all those years, Jimmy has
been one of the greatest drivers on the
West Coast. On top of that, he is a super
person who loves talking to people. We
hope a lot of fans come out early to meet
him.
Joining the headline USAC/CRA
Sprint Cars on the racing portion of the
program, the PASSCAR Super Stocks will be
the fastest of the three Stock Car
divisions competing on the night.
Victorville’s Rick Arringdale, who
captured PAS championships in 1999 and
2001, returned as a regular competitor
last season and currently sits atop the
standings. Temecula’s Blaine Whitson, a
multi-time division champion at The PAS,
is only two points behind the leader.
Sitting third, just six points out of
first, is Glen Avon’s “Hot Rod” John
Caley. Beaumont’s Steven Welch and
second-generation racer George Leventis
complete the top five.
Yorba
Linda’s Chad Mahony leads the Street Stock
championship chase over Leventis.
Riverside’s Morgan Rowlan holds down the
third position. Two-time champion Sean
Estes of Riverside, who captured last
month’s $2,000-to-win special main event,
is fourth, while season-opening winner
Justin Dunn rounds out the top five.
The American Factory Stock
championship battle is already shaping up
to be a slugfest. Ramona’s Andrew Schmitz
holds a four-point advantage over 2023
champion Kris Carnish of Menifee. However,
the fight throughout the top six is
incredibly tight, with Carnish and
sixth-place Joseph Pack of Menifee
separated by only four points. Sandwiched
between them are Jurupa Valley’s James
Keller in third, along with three-time
champion David Stites of Canyon Lake and
Ramona’s Cameron Broe, who are tied for
fourth.
Spectator gates at the
super-clean speed plant will open at 5:00
p.m., with racing at 7:00. Adult tickets
are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over are
$25.00. Students 13-17 with their school
ID get in for $15.00. Kids ages 6-12 are
$10.00, and children 5 and under are free.
Active military members with proper ID get
in for $5.00. Parking is $20.00.
Advance tickets for all PAS shows are
available now at

Fans who do not wish to purchase advance
tickets will still be able to buy plenty
of tickets at the ticket windows on race
night.
