URSS promoter Rick Salem said he was extremely happy that Alan Davis and the El Paso County Fairboard stepped up and replaced a couple of lost National shows to bring the URSS’s best of the best to Colorado for all the fans and drivers in area. This race not only counts for Colorado points, but also Kansas points and National points and is sure to attract all the heavy hitters.
“The Colorado drivers have done a good job this year coming out to support the National shows in Kansas and I feel we’ll get a good bunch of Kansas region cars to come out and support them in their first ever National show in Colorado.” said Salem. The Saturday night feature will pay $1000 to the winner along with a minimum $200 just to start the 30 lap A feature.
The race is also being sponsored by KW Schramek Landscape Materials, Benson Floor Coverings and USA Performance Engines.
Colorado’s own Jake Bubak, who is currently leading the Kansas and National points races along with Colorado point leader Joey Schmidt will lead the Rebels into Calhan. Bubak with many laps of experience on the tight ¼ mile oval will face the toughest competition yet as Liberal’s Steven Richardson, Jetmore’s Zach Blurton, Green River Wyoming’s Zac Taylor and a host of URSS’s best will be on hand, all vying for the $1000 winners share.
