Extending his points lead to 21, Rick Ziehl continues his quest for his ninth consecutive Carlyle Tools ASCS Southwest Region Championship. Hot on the New Mexico veteran’s heels is Arizona’s Bob Ream, Jr. with Colton Hardy third. After leading the points earlier this season, mechanical gremlins have pushed the No. 75x of J.T. Imperial to fourth with Lance Norick advancing to fifth from ninth in standings following his victory this past Saturday at the Canyon Speedway Park.
Casey Buckman holds sixth with Wes Wofford, Jeremy McCune, James Aragon, and Logan Forler completing the top-ten in driver standings.
Saturday, April 23 at the Central Arizona Speedway will get underway at 7:00 P.M. (MT). Along with the two divisions of Sprint Cars, the Sport Mods, Pure Stocks, and Bombers will also be in action.
