EL PASO, Texas (July 29, 2016) The final trip for the Carlyle Tools ASCS Southwest Region to the soon to be closed Western Tech Speedway Park in El Paso, Texas it was only fitting that an El Paso native should make it to Victory Lane as John Carney II climbed through the field from ninth for his tenth overall win of the 2016 season.
A victory worth $2,000, the night’s races were presented by Consolidated Solar Technology.
The third leader in the night’s 25 lap feature event, the opening six rounds were controlled by Arizona’s Bob Ream, Jr. before traffic allowed Colton Hardy to advance to the top-spot. Leading the way into the closing laps, Carney moved past the No. 74 on Lap 18 to lead the remained of the rotations.
Wes Wofford was also able to sneak by for the runner-up spot with Hardy settling for the show position.
Lorne Wofford was fourth with New Mexico’s Rick Ziehl rounding out the top five. Bob Ream, Jr. ended up sixth after leading early on. C.J. Hulsey from 11th came up to a seventh place finish with Casey Buckman, Darrell Sickles, and Don Grable making up the top-ten.
Looking to Saturday, June 30 the Carlyle Tools ASCS Southwest Region returns to the Southern New Mexico Speedway in Las Cruces, N.M. with races getting underway at 7:45 P.M. (MDT) where another $2,000 payday awaits thanks to Consolidated Solar Technology. For continued updates on the Carlyle Tools ASCS Southwest Region, log onto http://www.ascsracing.com.
