  BRODY ROA COMPLETED HIS 2022 SEASON AT THE TURKEY NIGHT GRAND PRIX

  (Cypress, CA, December 7, 2022) Nearly eleven months after it started, Brody Roa finished his 2022 racing season in the 81st annual Turkey Night Grand Prix at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway. Contesting the USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series portion of the program in Jayson May's pretty #8M sprint car, the Garden Grove, California driver ended up finishing 17th in the 30-lap main event due to some late-race bad luck. 310350912_10166729824325201_6527411594461310400_n.jpg Brody Roa's Turkey Night Grand Prix ride. May photo. The two-night program featured heat races, qualifiers, and a dash for the sprint cars on Friday night. An outstanding field of 49 entries showed up for the event. Drivers did not qualify but rather drew for positions in the Friday night heat races. Roa pulled a number that placed him in the second heat race on the famous 1/5-of-a-mile clay oval. The 31-year-old started in the fourth position in his heat race. By the end of the opening go around he was second and was applying immediate heat to the leader. The veteran racer kept the pressure up all the way to the Kris Kornder checkered flag but he had to settle for second. The finish placed him on the outside of row number one for his 12-lap qualifier. From there, he steered the #8M into the lead and proceeded to stay out front every inch of the way. Two races down and everything was working to perfection. However, that was about to change. With the heat and qualifiers out of the way, there was only one thing left for Roa on the night. That was the 15-lap dash for the top 10 drivers in points after the heat races and the qualifiers. The way they finished the dash would be the way they started the main event straight up. Roa was on the outside of the second row in fourth for the start. He stayed in that position over the first two circuits before slipping back to fifth on lap three. On lap nine Roa moved back to the 4th place spot. That pass moved him up a full row in Saturday's main if he could stay there. Everything went smoothly until lap 12. Entering turn three, the second-place car clipped one of the huge tires protecting the end of the crashwall at the pit entrance. That caused the car to spin and it also kicked the tire onto the track. The third-place driver, Roa's teammate Chase Johnson, hit the tire and turned over. Roa, who was close behind, had nowhere to go and slid into the mess. For good measure, another car sailed into Roa and the red flag came out. For all intents and purposes, it looked like Roa was done for the night. In fact, he climbed out of his car and took off his helmet. But after a closer look, he realized his car was not damaged as much as he thought. The veteran racer pushed his helmet back on, climbed back in the car, and bumped off for the restart. By that time there were only seven cars left in the race. That meant Roa had to restart at the back in seventh. In the remaining laps, he passed one car to finish sixth and start one spot closer to the front in Saturday's championship main event. Saturday night Roa and his fellow competitors were greeted by a near-capacity crowd at one of America's most popular dirt tracks. In addition to the packed house, the race was also seen by thousands more around the world on Flo Racing. Being that he finished sixth in points the previous night, Roa did not have to race in any of the preliminaries. He was seeded right into the 30-lap finale and would start on the outside of the third row in May's gorgeous #8M. At the drop of the Chris Kornder green flag, Roa immediately went on the attack. However, the green flag was short-lived as the caution came out on the second circuit. For the restart, Roa was in fifth and he dogged the fourth-place car for the first 1/3 of the race. By lap 20, he had slipped back to seventh. As the race reached the waning laps, he was still in seventh, but with an engine issue and an overzealous driver clobbering him from behind, Roa was knocked from the action with two laps to go. He ended up 17th. The Ventura result was not the way "The Pride of Garden Grove" wanted to conclude the season but he did have a very good year. He had 15 top-10 finishes and 11 of those were in the top five. Despite not running the full USAC/CRA schedule, Roa's total of three wins was second-best on the circuit and he finished sixth in points. Highlights of the year included his win at Mohave Valley after he started 11th in the main event. At Santa Maria, he drove to the win in the 410 race in May's 360 powered rocketship. He also had a win in May's car in a USAC West Coast Series race at Ventura. In addition to his non-wing endeavors, Roa, also qualified for his first-ever World of Outlaws main event at Perris on March 26th. It was only his second-ever race in the legendary series. The first came 24 hours earlier at Bakersfield. While the 2022 season just ended, 2023 will kick off in just five weeks in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the Chili Bowl. The sprint car season will kick off two weeks after that at the Cocopah Speedway in Arizona. In between now and Cocopah, the team will be working on cars, ordering parts, and exploring marketing opportunities with potential partners.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON GETS A THIRD-PLACE FINISH ON LAST WEEKEND OF THE SEASON AT PLACERVILLE

  (Warner Springs, CA, December 1, 2022) Shane Sexton brought the curtain down on his 2022 racing season at the three-night Hangtown 100 at the Placerville Speedway. Driving for Brian Fonseca, whom he has teamed with for two victories in 2022, the 18-year-old driver had a third-place finish on the second night on the quarter-mile banked red clay Oval. Night #1 A stellar field of 26 cars showed up for the race that was co-sanctioned by the California Lightning Sprint Car Series, and Northern California's Bay Cities Racing Association. The affable 18-year-old got off to a good start when he recorded the fourth-fastest qualifying time with a sizzling lap of 13.751. That effort placed him in the first 8-lap heat race of the three-night affair. Fortunately, that heat result did not resonate on the entire weekend as Sexton started in the 5th place spot and ended up 7th. He followed the heat up by starting the 25-lap main in 10th in Fonseca's #3F. He moved the car forward four spots and finished six. Night #2 Sexton, who makes his home in Warner Springs, California, had another good qualifying effort on night number two. That time he recorded the fifth-fastest lap at 13.644. Things went much better for his heat race on the second night when he began in fifth and finished fourth in the quick 8-lapper. Not long thereafter, the driver who picked up preliminary main event wins at Washington's Clay Cup and the Cal Cup at the Lemoore Speedway was fired up and ready for the main event. He started on the inside of the second row and 100 turns later, he crossed the finish line in third place. It was his 7th top-five finish of the 2022 season. It was an impressive finish considering that the condition of the track for the main caught the team by surprise. "I did not think it was going to be this dry," Sexton explained. "We probably could have went a little bit tighter. Hats off to my guys, Brian Fonseca, and my dad. They work their tails off throughout the night. We have had some success all around the country. We normally do not do the local stuff for Brian, but he called and asked if I wanted to drive it and I could not say no. Third place on the podium is not too bad." 316166392_1752841241764061_2197171293471255483_n.jpg Shane Sexton with his Friday night third place trophy at Placerville. Sexton photo. Night #3 Hopes were high for the Sexton/Fonseca duo in the final race of the year. Coming off the previous night's podium finish combined with their success in big events this year, there were plenty of reasons to believe that the night was going to be special. Those expectations grew higher when Sexton started and finished second in his 12-lap qualifier. That put him on the outside of row two for the feature. However, this is no fairy tale and the main event did not have a happy ending. On lap six, Sexton tangled with another car in turn one. While it was not a heavy crash, the damage done was enough to knock him out of the race. He ended up with a very frustrating 18th-place finish. While the 2022 campaign is done, the work is already underway for 2023. Sexton will be spending countless hours in the shop getting his family-owned GAS Chassis 410 sprint car ready to go at the season openers in late January. He plans to run the full season with USAC/CRA. He also hopes to see some time in Fonseca's potent car in select events when his 410 racing schedule permits. In addition to prepping the cars, the young driver is looking to have some corporate marketing partners join him for the year. If you are interested, please contact him via the information that follows: e-mail mailto::Shanesexton7@gmail.com or by phone at (619) 362-5921. If you are looking to get into sprint car racing, you can use the same contact information to purchase or get information on a new GAS Chassis for the 2023 campaign. Sexton would like to thank Brian Fonseca and Samantha Sproull for the opportunity to wheel their lightning sprint and he would like to thank their team sponsors for making it possible. They are the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians, Foothill Tractor & Heavy Equipment, KB Rod Benders, and MJK Auto Sales. Sexton and the #74 team wish to extend their thanks to the following 2022 racing season partners. GAS Chassis, Key Brothers Racing, Nita Gatlin, Hugh Jorgan, Mike Pridgeon Racing Engines, AG Sandcars, Powder 1, Ron's Tire and Brake, and Savage Racing.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. POSTS A CAREER-BEST THIRD-PLACE FINISH IN USAC/CRA SERIES POINT STANDINGS

  (Chino, CA, November 26, 2022) When the Heimark Anheuser-Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals closed the 2022 season at Perris Auto Speedway earlier this month, Eddie Tafoya Jr. ended up a career-best third place in the 2022 USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series championship standings. The outcome was five spots better than his previous career best of eighth place in 2021. The biggest key to Tafoya's prowess in 2022 was his consistency. The Specialty Fasteners hauler pulled up into racetracks 24 times this year. Every single time, the Chino Hills, California racer started the A main event. Those 24 races took place on nine different racetracks in 3 different states (California, Arizona, and South Dakota). Of the 24 main events he started, Tafoya finished in the top ten 13 times. Of the 13, six were top five. His best finish of the campaign was a second-place result on January 29th at the Cocopah Speedway. He recorded a third at the Mohave valley Raceway on April 24th and placed fourth at Perris on June 25th. By contrast, the team appeared at 29 races in 2021 and made the A main 17 times. He finished in the top ten on six occasions. Four of the six top 10s in 2021 were in the top five. His best finish of that season was a third at Perris in July. Tafoya, the 2018 Perris Auto Speedway Young Guns champion and 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year, finished off his 2022 season with the two biggest events on the USAC/CRA schedule. First up came the Western World Championships at the Cocopah Speedway near Yuma, Arizona. That was followed by the Oval Nationals at Perris the first weekend in November. Each of those race weekends saw the 25-year-old not only squaring off with the best that USAC/CRA has to offer but also the finest drivers from the National Series as well. They were tough main events to make but the handsome 25-year-old did so every time. Going into those final five races, Tafoya was 17 points out of third place and 25 points out of second. By the time he left Arizona and headed to Perris, he had taken over third place and only trailed the second-place driver by 18 points. When the final checkered flag of the season closed the campaign, he had sewed up third place and was only 21 points out of the runner-up spot. The 2023 schedule should be out soon. It is safe to say that Tafoya will continue his rise in the sport and will be a contender for the 2023 USAC/CRA championship. During the off-season, Tafoya, and the Specialty Fasteners #51T team, will be prepping for that very important campaign. In addition to the work on the cars in the shop, the team will be busy exploring corporate partnership opportunities for the upcoming campaign. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the Specialty Fasteners team in 2023, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at mailto:teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Tafoya's great-looking shirts and hoodies will make great Christmas presents for the special racing fans on your Christmas list. They are available online at www.specialty-fasteners.com. Tafoya has a great YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU. Tafoya and the #51T team would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, DRC Chassis, Ryder Racing Engines, Simpson Safety Products, Bell, Benic Enterprises, BR Motorsports, PSC Powder Coating, Magik Graphics, Gasper Transportation, Owen's Insurance Services, and Weld Wheels for making the 2022 season possible. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51. The same contact point can be used to purchase his great-looking shirts via mail.

  BRODY ROA WRAPS UP THE 2022 CAMPAIGN IN THE TURKEY NIGHT GRAND PRIX AT VENTURA

  (Cypress, CA, November 25, 2022) Southern California racing veteran Brody Roa will close out another successful season tonight and Saturday, November 25th and 26th, in the USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series at the 81st running of the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway. The veteran driver will be back behind the wheel of Jayson May's gorgeous #8M sprint car that has already carried him to a pair of victories in 2022. 297879254_2204237209743457_8079382424926505894_n.jpg Brody Roa in Jayson May's #8M. SCRAFAN.COM Photo. Roa's prowess at Ventura and in May's car makes him one of the favorites in this week's race. In two appearances at the beach side track in 2022, he has a win and a second-place finish. Driving his own #91R car in a USAC/CRA race on June 11th, Roa ended up second in the main event. He was clearly the fastest car on the track, but on the night, the track was one lane on the bottom. Rather than wreck the first-place car and possibly take himself out as well, Roa wisely settled for second. Two months later, he steered May's car to the USAC West Coast Series main event win on the tiny, challenging oval that is located a stone's throw away from the breaking surf of the Pacific Ocean. After returning from Indiana Sprint week, Roa jumped into May's 360 and led every inch of the way in the USAC/CRA 410 race at the grand re-opening of the Santa Maria Raceway on August 6th. His other 2022 appearances in May's equipment came in early February in a pair of CAS/ASCS events at the Central Arizona Speedway. The first night Roa had the main event in the bag, but the competition was plagued by an exorbitant amount of yellow flags and Roa ran out of fuel near the end of the race. He restarted at the rear and came back through the field to finish fifth. Twenty-four hours later he placed second on the same track. Gates will open at 3:00 p.m. each day at Ventura with cars on the track at 3:15. The sprint cars will have heats and a dash for cash on Friday. On Saturday, they will have preliminary main events and a $3,000.00 to win A main. The USAC National Midgets will join the action with practice on Friday. On Saturday, the midgets will qualify, contest preliminaries, and finish the night with the historic 98-lap main event. The Ventura Raceway is located on the Ventura County Fairgrounds at 10 W. Harbor Boulevard (93001). The website is http://venturaraceway.com/ and the office phone number is (805) 648-RACE. Friday night adult tickets are $22.00. Seniors, military, and students get in for $18.00, and it is free for kids under 12 on Friday. On Saturday, reserved seats are $45.00 for those 13 and older. Reserved seats for those 12 and under are $25.00. General admission tickets are $35.00. Roa comes into the event after ending the 410 sprint car portion of his 2022 season at the 26th running of the Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. The first night of the Ovals saw the Garden Grove, California racecar chauffeur being the most competitive of the local drivers at the race on the famous Riverside County half-mile clay Oval. In qualifying in the stellar 40-car field that showed up for the last USAC National and USAC/CRA race of 2022, Roa only managed to qualify 18th fastest. He shrugged off the time trials result with a convincing win in the first heat race of the three-day event. For the 30-lap main, Roa, 31 started in the ninth spot. Racing in the toughest field on the famous Riverside County half-mile clay oval in 2022, the veteran driver was the highest-running USAC/CRA driver in the field. He was just behind the USAC National Series regulars in the early part of the race. As the laps dwindled down, he began to infiltrate the invaders and advance toward the front of the pack. Running on the top, which had an unforgiving cushion, he was in the sixth spot with two laps to go when the cushion bit him and sent the #91R careening into the wall. Roa looked at the car, saw little damage, and climbed back in. He restarted at the back and ended up 16th. On the second night at the Ovals, Roa qualified 22nd fastest. He backed that up with a third-place finish in his heat race. That gave him his second straight ticket into the 30-lap main event. The veteran driver started that race in 20th and finished 17th. The tangle with the cushion on Thursday, combined with the 17th place finish on Friday, meant that Roa would have to qualify again on Saturday and make it to the main event through his heat race or the B main. The affable racing star was the ninth-quickest qualifier and placed third in his heat. That automatically sent him into the A main for the third consecutive night. For the 40-lap championship main event, Roa started in the 10th place spot and was 11th when the checkered flag ended the contest and the 410 season. That was the best performance by a USAC/CRA driver in the race. Roa and the team want to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. HD Industries, Burris Racing, Sander Engineering, Inland Rigging, Caltrol, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Competition Suspension, ALR Virtual Services, K-1 Race Gear, Molecule, Rod End Supply, Driven Racing Oil, Baldwin Filters, and NGK Spark Plugs. In addition, the veteran driver offers thanks to RDM Mechanics, Fastenal, KC Keen Concrete, Coopers Propane, Ten West Towing, Ten West Environmental, TJM Distribution, and Westco International for sponsoring May's #8M.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON'S RACING SEASON ENDS THIS WEEK AT THE PLACERVILLE SPEEDWAY

  (Warner Springs, CA, November 16, 2022) Young Warner Springs, California racer "Shugah" Shane Sexton will conclude his 2022 racing season this Thursday through Saturday, November 17, 18, and 19, in the annual Hangtown 100 on the red clay of the Placerville Speedway. The friendly driver will be in Brian Fonseca's wingless lightning sprint car for the three-night event. Thus far in 2022, 18-year-old Sexton has driven Fonseca's owned Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians/Foothill Tractor & Heavy Equipment/KB Rod Benders/MJK Auto Sales #3F nine times at four different tracks. First off came the two-day POWRi Lightening Sprint Nationals at the Central Missouri Speedway in May. The highlight of that trip was a second-place finish on opening night. In July, they teamed up and went to the prestigious Clay Cup at Washington's Deming Speedway and took the victory on the second night. They attended the re-opening of the Santa Maria Speedway in early August and the friendly driver placed third in the main event. The last time they joined forces was five weeks ago at the Cal Cup at Central California's Lemoore Raceway. That weekend, Sexton again posted the win on the second of three nights of racing. All told in the nine starts, Sexton has only finished out of the top five two times. Each of those two came when he was clobbered by another car and knocked out of contention. 313102816_10166816417445201_7101363667430222325_n.jpg Shane Sexton (right) after his October win at Lemoore Raceway. Maxwell Patrick photo. Overall, this weekend's races will be #18, 19, and 20 for Sexton this year. When all the races have been logged into his ledger after Saturday, it will show that he competed in lightning sprints 12 times. Also, he will have raced his 410 USAC/CRA car eight times in 2022. Look for his schedule to increase significantly in 2023 as he plans to have several more dates in the 410 GAS Chassis house car throughout the year. To see "Shugah: Shane in action at Placerville, you can purchase advance tickets at https://www.eventsprout.com/event/hangtown-2022. Gates will open at 3:00 p.m. each day with racing at 6:00. Fans can find the track at 100 Placerville Drive in Placerville. The website is https://www.placervillespeedway.com/ and the track phone is (530) 344-7592. While Sexton's 2022 season comes to an end this weekend, the young driver and his team are about to get very busy going over cars, ordering parts, and looking for marketing partners for the 2023 season. If you wish to become involved with the up-and-coming team next year, please contact Shane Sexton via e-mail mailto::Shanesexton7@gmail.com or by phone at (619) 362-5921. Sexton would like to extend a thank you to Brian Fonseca and Samantha Sproull for the opportunity to wheel their lightning sprint and he would like to thank their team sponsors for making it possible. They are the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians, Foothill Tractor & Heavy Equipment, KB Rod Benders, and MJK Auto Sales. Sexton and the #74 team wish to extend their thanks to the following 2022 racing season partners. GAS Chassis, Key Brothers Racing, Nita Gatlin, Hugh Jorgan, Mike Pridgeon Racing Engines, AG Sandcars, Powder 1, Ron's Tire and Brake, and Savage Racing.

  MATT McCARTHY AND LOGAN WILLIAMS WILL END 2022 SEASON AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY

  (Ontario, CA, November 2, 2022) The Flowdynamics sprint car racing duo of Matt McCarthy and Logan Williams will close the 2022 season this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, November 3rd, 4th, and 5th, at the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. Heading into the finale, both drivers are in the top 10 in the USAC/CRA Series point standings. Williams, who lives in Yorba Linda, California, joined forces with Flowdynamics and McCarthy in May of 2021. When Williams signed on with the team, his father, National Sprint Car Hall of Famer Rip Williams, joined on as well. It also brought on a relationship with Williams' brothers, Cody, and Austin, who are also regulars in the series. The joining of forces and sharing of information has done well for both McCarthy and Logan Williams in their first full season together. PAS 3-26-22=28m 5w=1085-3.jpg Matt McCarthy (inside) and Logan Williams at Perris earlier this year. Doug Allen photo. Williams comes into the three races this week seventh in the point standings. He is only five points out of sixth and 35 points out of fifth. Riverside's McCarthy, who flexed his muscle at August's California Racers Hall of Fame Night at Perris by being the fast qualifier and winning a four-segment high-dollar trophy dash, will enter this weekend's fray 10th in the points. McCarthy's best appearances of the season both came at Perris. He kicked off the campaign at the famous Riverside County oval with the 7th place finish on March 28th. Three months later on June 25th, he took his beautiful #28M to an eighth-place result on the same half-mile track. Williams' best outings thus far in 2022 were 4th place finishes at the Bakersfield Speedway on May 14th and the Santa Maria Raceway on August 6th. His best result at Perris was a 6th place in the annual Salute To Indy on May 28th. Both drivers are hoping to rebound from a disappointing weekend last week at the Western World Championships at Arizona's Cocopah Speedway. Williams finished 21st and 23rd in the A mains, and McCarthy placed 14th and 21st in the B mains. This week's event, which will feature both the USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Cars, will include qualifying, heat races, preliminary mains, and an A main event every single night. The show will culminate with a 40-lap, $ 20,000.00-to-win Oval Nationals finale on Saturday. For those who wish to see McCarthy and Williams in action this week, advance tickets are available at the following link https://www.tix.com/ticket-sales/pas/7 or by calling 1-800-595-4849. If you do not wish to buy tickets in advance, there will be plenty available for everyone at the ticket window all three nights.

The track website is www.perrisautospeedway.com and the office phone number is (951) 940-0134. Be sure to visit the pits and meet both friendly Flowdynamics drivers after the races this weekend and pick up one of their fine-looking team shirts. Even though the end of the 2022 season is nearly over, the hard work for 2023 will begin almost immediately.

They will also be ordering parts and discussing the possibility of marketing opportunities for 2023.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. IS ONE POINT OUT OF THIRD GOING INTO THIS WEEK'S OVAL NATIONALS AT PERRIS

  (Chino, CA, November 2, 2022) Eddie Tafoya Jr. will close his sprint car season this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, November 3rd, 4th, and 5th at the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. Entering the final weekend of the eight-month season, the 2019 USAC/CRA "Rookie of the Year" is one point out of third place and only 20-points out of second in the championship standings. 313399486_10166826944290201_5018192168403270918_n.jpg Eddie Tafoya in the Specialty Fasteners #51T. Doug Allen photo. Tafoya's quiet demeanor and smooth style on the track make him one of the best-kept secrets in west coast sprint car racing. In only three full seasons of 410 sprint car action, he has climbed to a lofty position that most can only dream of attaining in their racing careers. The key to the 25-year-old driver's success has been his consistency. Thus far in 21 total starts in 2022, he has seen the checkered flag 20 times. That shows he knows how to race, and he knows how to take care of his equipment. In the only race he did not finish this year he was clobbered by another car at Perris in March. Combining his ever-growing smooth skill with his keen ability to avoid trouble, he has 13 top-10 finishes in 18 USAC/CRA starts this year. Six of the top 10s were in the top five. His best outing of the season was a second place at Cocopah Speedway on January 29th. His other podium finish came on June 25th at Perris. The Chino Hills, California resident also recorded his first-ever series fast qualifying time at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway in early June. Last weekend Tafoya journeyed to Yuma, Arizona's Cocopah Speedway for the 55th Annual Western World Championships. On the first night, "Mr. Smooth" qualified with a time of 17.459 which was good for the 26 fastest time in the 40-car field. He missed the transfer spot in his heat race by one position and was forced to run the B main event. There, he clawed his way forward to finish 4th and transferred into the A main. He started the A in the 22nd position and moved forward three spots to finish 19th. Twenty-four hours later, the handsome driver reeled off a lap of 16.413, which was good for seventh quickest in the stacked 37-car field. He then avoided having to start in the B main again when he placed fourth in his heat race. For the finale, Tafoya was on the outside of the front row and ran in the top three for the first five laps. However, his car was, "the tightest I've ever been and wasn't even close to tight enough." That cost him and he eventually ended up finishing 16th. Look for an improvement on that finish this weekend on his home track. Tafoya has a new load of great-looking shirts and hoodies that will be on sale at the Oval Nationals. Fans can meet the driver and the team and pick up a shirt or hoodie in the pits after each night of racing. For those who cannot make it to the tracks, they are also available online at www.specialty-fasteners.com. For fans who wish to see Tafoya in action at this week's Oval Nationals, spectator gates will open at 5:00 PM with racing at 7:00 each night. Advance tickets are available at the following link https://www.tix.com/ticket-sales/pas/7 or by calling 1-800-595-4849. For those who do not wish to buy advance tickets, there will be plenty available for everyone at the ticket window each night. The famous racetrack is located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds at 18700 Lake Perris Drive in the city of Perris. The track website is www.perrisautospeedway.com and the office phone number is (951) 940-0134. After Saturday's race is over, Tafoya, and The Specialty Fasteners #51T team, will be prepping for the 2023 campaign. The cars will be stripped down to bare frames before being rebuilt and ready to go on the other side of the New Year. In addition to the work on the cars in the shop, the team will be busy exploring corporate partnership opportunities for the upcoming campaign. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the Specialty Fasteners team in 2023, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Tafoya has a great new YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU.

  BRODY ROA FINISHES 410 SPRINT CAR SCHEDULE AT THIS WEEK'S PERRIS OVAL NATIONALS

  (Cypress, CA, November 1, 2022) Brody Roa will wrap up the 410 portion of his 2022 sprint car schedule when the USAC National and CRA Sprint Cars converge on Southern California's Perris Auto Speedway this Thursday thru Saturday, November 3rd, 4th, and 5th, in the 26th running of the Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals. For Roa, the Oval Nationals brings back a fond memory of the finest weekend of his career. In the three nights from November 9th to the 11th, 2017, the Garden Grove, California racer stood on the podium two times and never finished worse than sixth in the prestigious race. It started out on Thursday the ninth when the friendly driver qualified fourth fastest in the 43-car field. He followed that up by placing fourth in his heat race and third in the main event. Twenty-four hours later, Roa, then 26 years old, qualified ninth fastest and finished fourth in his heat race on preliminary night #2. For the 30-lap main event, he started on the pole. After trading the lead back and forth over the first circuit, he took full control on lap two and went unchallenged the remainder of the way. Every time the yellow waved, Roa would simply drive away from the pack to score a convincing win. "I can't believe I just won a National Sprint Car race," the excited driver told the crowd after climbing out of his car five years ago. "I don't know what to say. This is the coolest thing I have done in my racing career so far. I did not like seeing all of those yellows and reds. I was waiting for a slider on a restart and I kept seeing Chad's (Boespflug) nose a few times. I cannot say enough about this team. We are clicking right now and this thing runs like a banshee. We are going to celebrate a bit tonight, but not too much because we have got to get the job done tomorrow." download.jpg Brody and his wife Tailor celebrate after his Oval Nationals preliminary win in 2017. Surfnsprint photo. The following night Roa had enough points to bypass the heat races and contest the "Super Six Dash." That race was for the six highest point-scoring cars from the first two nights. Roa started and finished 6th in that one and that meant he would be coming from outside row three in the 40-lap championship. He placed sixth in the finale and that was the best of any of the CRA cars in the field. Flash forward to 2022 and Roa has had a very impressive season at Perris. The now 31-year-old driver from Garden Grove, California has three podiums including a win on June 25th in five USAC/CRA starts at the track this year. He also qualified for his first-ever World of Outlaws main event when the touring troupe came to the famous Riverside County clay oval on March 26th. In addition to his USAC/CRA win at The PAS in June, Roa has two other victories in the series this year. The first came when he outdistanced the 410 field in Jayson May's 360 sprint car at the Santa Maria Raceway on August 6th. On October 8th, he came all the way from the 11th starting spot to win the main event at the Mohave Valley Raceway. In addition to his wins in USAC/CRA, he also steered May's 360 to a win at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway in the USAC West Coast Series on August 27th. Roa comes into the Oval Nationals after contesting last week's 56th Annual Western World Championships at the Cocopah Speedway in Yuma, Arizona. Last Friday night he timed in 17th fastest of 40 cars on hand with a lap of 17.365. He followed that up with a second-place finish in his 10-lap heat. In the 30-lap main, he began the race in 17th and advanced two places to finish 15th. Twenty-four hours later, he was the 14th fastest out of 37 cars with a time of 16.699. Another second-place result in his heat secured the 15th starting spot in the finale. Just like the night before, he ended up 15th. While Saturday will be Roa's last 410 race of 2022, he will still have one date left on his racing calendar. He will be in Jayson May's car for the historic 81st running of the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway on Thanksgiving weekend. Roa and the team want to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. HD Industries, Burris Racing, Sander Engineering, Inland Rigging, Caltrol, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Competition Suspension, ALR Virtual Services, K-1 Race Gear, Molecule, Rod End Supply, Driven Racing Oil, Baldwin Filters, and NGK Spark Plugs. In addition, the veteran driver offers thanks to RDM Mechanics, Fastenal, KC Keen Concrete, Coopers Propane, Ten West Towing, Ten West Environmental, TJM Distribution, and Westco International for sponsoring the #8M he will pilot for Jayson May on 10 occasions in 2022. If you or your company would like to jump on board and receive recognition as a team partner throughout the 2022 racing season, please give the two-time USAC champion racer a phone call or drop him a note at the contact information on the top of this release.

  MATT McCARTHY AND LOGAN WILLIAMS IN WESTERN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS AT COCOPAH SPEEDWAY

  (Ontario, CA, October 27, 2022) After a two-week break to get the cars prepared for the final two events of the 2022 racing season, Flowdynamics drivers Matt McCarthy and Logan Williams will be in action this Friday and Saturday, October 28th and 29th, in the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented by Yuma Insurance and Avanti at Arizona's Cocopah Speedway. 299656987_5639960102722091_1864525540843387049_nsave.jpg The Flowdynamics cars are ready for racing at the Cocopah Speedway this weekend. Doug Allen photo. With just five races to go in the 2022 USAC/CRA campaign, Williams is fighting to get into the top five in the championship point standings and McCarthy is hoping to advance forward from 10th. For the majority of the season, Williams was fifth in points. However, some bad luck in recent races has seen him drop back to 6th. Coming off the last race at the Mojave Valley Raceway on October 8th, Williams is a mere three points out of fifth. Trailing him in 7th and only 38 points behind is his oldest brother, Cody. His other brother, Austin, is currently 3rd. That gives the family three drivers in the top ten in series points. For Riverside, California-based McCarthy, he has been in ninth or 10th in the standings for most of the season. The affable racer enters this weekend in 10th and is 45-points out of ninth. He will need to be locked in for the remaining races not only to catch the racer in ninth but to fend off the driver in 11th who comes into this Friday only 32-points behind McCarthy. The series last appeared at Cocopah for the first three races of the 2022 campaign. Yorba Linda, California resident Williams, the youngest of the three Williams brothers who race in the series and the son of National Sprint Car Hall of Famer Rip Williams, was on his game. The #5W driver left the Somerton, Arizona track with two sixth-place finishes and a seventh. McCarthy's best finish of the opening weekend was a 14th. However, that number is a bit misleading. After starting 10th and slipping back to 16th at the season opener, he was coming on like gangbusters and passed five cars in three laps. He was clearly one of the fastest cars on the track, but a lap 16 flip knocked him out of the race. At the series' last race at Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway on October 8th, McCarthy steered his #28M to the 13th fastest time in qualifying and finished second in his 10-lap heat race. In the 30-lap main, he started in the 12th position and came home 10th. Williams' box score for the Mohave race saw him qualify 21st, and finish third, directly behind McCarthy in their heat. He started 19th in the main event and ended up finishing 16th. All of the action at Cocopah will kick off with the first race of the two nights at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. For fans who wish to attend, the track is located at 3450 W County 15th St. in Somerton, Arizona. Reserved tickets are $40.00. General admission is $35.00 and pit passes are $45.00. They are on sale now, along with VIP Camping spots, on the track website www.racecocopahspeedway.com. Gates will open at 5:00 p.m. each night with racing at 7:00. The office phone number is (602) 292-7607. After this weekend, the Ontario, California-based team will wrap up its 2022 campaign on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th at the 26 annual Heimark Anheuser-Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. Even though the end of the 2022 season is nearly over, the hard work for 2023 will begin almost immediately. The team will be tearing down the cars, going over them, and making any repairs and adjustments needed. They will also be ordering parts and discussing the possibility of marketing opportunities for 2023. If you or your company would like to be a part of one of the West coast's most prominent Sprint car teams for the upcoming season, please contact John McCarthy at 909 930-5522 or mailto:john@flodyinc.com When you are at a race that the Flowdynamics drivers are competing in, be sure to head down to the pits to meet McCarthy and Williams and pick up one of their fine-looking team shirts. McCarthy and Williams would like to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. Flowdynamics Inc., JFK Design Build, Cal Therm Mechanical Insulators, CRC Component Repair Co., Encore Gas and Supply, Drink-Pac, and Benic Enterprises.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. READY FOR SEASON-ENDING COCOPAH AND PERRIS RACES - NEW SHIRTS AND HOODIES AVAILABLE

  (Chino, CA, October 27, 2022) Eddie Tafoya Jr. will close his 2022 sprint car racing season with five races over the next 9 days in co-sanctioned shows with the Amsoil USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Cars. The first of the two shows will be this Friday and Saturday, October 28th and 29th, in the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented By Yuma Insurance and Avanti at Arizona's Cocopah Speedway. He will follow that up on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th in the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Southern California's Perris Auto Speedway. 307114239_10166690540515201_3467836010581480012_n.jpg Eddie Tafoya Jr. photo courtesy of Doug Allen. All five of the season-ending races will be full points-paying shows for the USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Car Series. The National points are of no concern for Tafoya as up to this point, he has only contested three National races this year. However, the USAC/CRA points are vital. Heading into the show at Cocopah, which is located 14 miles north of the US/Mexico border in the town of Somerton, Arizona, the 25-year-old Chino Hills, California resident is fourth in the series standings. He is only 19-points out of third and just 23-points out of second in his third season of racing 410 sprint cars. In racing at Cocopah, Tafoya and his #51T team are returning to the track where they opened the 2022 campaign with three races at the end of January. In those three events, Tafoya placed seventh on the opening night. Twenty-four hours later, he came home in ninth. At the finale of the three-day show on January 29th, he notched his best finish of the 2022 season when he finished second on the half-mile clay oval. This weekend's Western World will be the first time the prestigious race has been held at Cocopah. Last year's event was held at the Arizona Speedway which was just south of Phoenix. Tafoya qualified for the A main on both nights last year finishing 12th and 21st. Soon after that race ended, the wrecking ball was brought in and the track was razed for development purposes. In the last 10 USAC/CRA races, Tafoya has finished in the top 10 each time. In 16 USAC/CRA races this year, he has been in the top-ten 13 times. All told including three races in the USAC National Series in July, the handsome Southern California driver has finished all but one race. The one he did not finish was on March 26th at Perris when he was clobbered by another driver and flipped into the turn-one crash wall. In addition to the on-track news, Tafoya has a new load of shirts and hoodies that will be on sale at both Cocopah and Perris. Fans can meet the driver and the team and pick up a shirt or hoodie in the pits after the race. For those who cannot make it to the tracks, they are also available online at www.specialty-fasteners.com. image_50736641.JPG For fans who wish to see Tafoya battle with the best in the nation this week at the Western World, the track is located at 3450 W County 15th St. in Somerton, Arizona. Reserved tickets are $40.00. General admission is $35.00 and pit passes are $45.00. They are on sale now, along with VIP Camping spots, on the track website www.racecocopahspeedway.com. Gates will open at 5:00 p.m. each night with racing at 7:00. The office phone number is (602) 292-7607. As soon as the 2022 season ends, Tafoya, and The Specialty Fasteners #51T team, will be prepping for the 2023 campaign. The cars will be stripped down to bare frames before being rebuilt and ready to go on the other side of the New Year. In addition to the work on the cars in the shop, the team will be busy exploring corporate partnership opportunities for the upcoming campaign. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the Specialty Fasteners team in 2023, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Tafoya has a great new YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51. The same contact point can be used to purchase his great-looking shirts via mail.

  BRODY ROA IS READY FOR WESTERN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS THIS WEEKEND AT COCOPAH

  (Cypress, CA, October 25, 2022) Brody Roa begins a busy five-race barrage in the space of nine days when the USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Car Series converge on Arizona's Cocopah Speedway this Friday and Saturday, October 28th and 29th. They will be there for the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented By Yuma Insurance and Avanti. After this weekend's race, the action will switch to Southern California's Perris Auto Speedway for the 25th annual Heimark/Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval nationals on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. With such an ambitious schedule to begin the wind-down of the 2022 campaign, Roa, his wife Tailor, and their two-year-old daughter Addison have taken time to relax in Utah's Zion National Park. A week of tranquil exploring, bike riding, and camping is coming to an end as the 31-year-old racer returns to the rough-and-tumble world of sprint car competition at two of the country's nicest racing facilities. 312804152_2433880210084487_507415768567728849_n.jpg Brody Roa, his wife Tailor, and their 2-year-old daughter Addison enjoying Zion National Park. Roa comes into the two weekends of racing as the hottest driver in the USAC/CRA Series. Dating back to June 25th, the Garden Grove, California resident has won three of the last five series main events. The three wins have come at Perris Auto Speedway, the Santa Maria Raceway, and Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway. In one of the other races in that period, Roa was on the podium when he came home third at Perris in September. His victory at Mohave capped one of the best races in the series in 2022. Roa came all the way from his 11th-placeth place starting spot to take that win. That is the farthest back any driver has come from to take a USAC/CRA main event this year. Additionally, he is one of only four drivers who have started farther back than sixth to win this season. This weekend will be Roa's second trip to Cocopah this year. He began his sprint car season there at the end of January. In three nights of action, Roa finished fifth, sixth, and fourth on the track that is located approximately 12 miles north of the US/Mexico border. In addition to his main event placings, he also won a heat race at Cocopah. This year's version of the Western World will be the first time it has been staged at Cocopah. In the previous five years when the race was staged at the now-defunct Arizona Speedway, there were 11 main events including preliminary nights. Roa made all 11a of the mains and had six top-10 finishes. His best was a sixth-place result in 2017. Roa last raced two weeks ago on October 15th when he drove the Jason May #8M in the USAC West Coast Series event at the Kern County Raceway Park in Bakersfield. After qualifying eighth in the 19-car field, "The Pride of Garden Grove" finished fourth in his heat and started the main event in ninth. He methodically worked his way forward throughout the race and was up to fourth at the checkered flag. A procedural technicality after the race resulted in a 17th place result. For fans who wish to attend the Western World, the track is located at 3450 W County 15th St. in Somerton, Arizona. Reserved tickets are $40.00. General admission is $35.00 and pit passes are $45.00. They are on sale now, along with VIP Camping spots, on the track website www.racecocopahspeedway.com. Gates will open at 5:00 p.m. each night with racing at 7:00. The office phone number is (602) 292-7607. If you wish to hear Roa's recent appearance on the Dirt Tracks and Rib Racks podcast, you can do so at the following link https://spoti.fi/3cjQrLL. In 2022, Roa is racing in the USAC/CRA, USAC National, and other select events, in his #91R BR Performance/HD Industries Eagle. He will also drive the #8M for May Motorsports in select USAC West Coast events. Roa and the team want to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. HD Industries, Burris Racing, Sander Engineering, Inland Rigging, Caltrol, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Competition Suspension, ALR Virtual Services, K-1 Race Gear, Molecule, Rod End Supply, Driven Racing Oil, Baldwin Filters, and NGK Spark Plugs. In addition, the veteran driver offers thanks to RDM Mechanics, Fastenal, KC Keen Concrete, Coopers Propane, Ten West Towing, Ten West Environmental, TJM Distribution, and Westco International for sponsoring the #8M he will pilot for Jayson May on 10 occasions in 2022.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON GETS SECOND 2022 WIN WITH BRIAN FONSECA AT CAL CUP

  (Warner Springs, CA, October 24, 2022) Young Warner Springs, California racer "Shugah" Shane Sexton combined with Northern California car owner Brian Fonseca for their second win of 2022 when they captured night #2 of the California Cup at the Lemoore Raceway on October 14th. They previously combined for a victory on July 15th in the Clay Cup at Washington's Deming Speedway. 311920417_677369627080459_7992972016389176023_n.jpg "Shugah" with teammate Harlee Aguilera and car owner Brian Fonseca at Lemoore. Maxwell Patrick photo. Sexton and Northern California-based Fonseca did not have plans on contesting the Cal Cup. However, when Sexton received a late call from Fonseca asking him if he wanted to race, the 18-year-old jumped at the opportunity. Less than 24 hours later he made the 320-mile drive from his San Diego County home to the track that is located in California's fertile Central Valley for the three-day race. Once there, Sexton set the fifth-fastest qualifying time on opening night. In his opening night heat, he began on the inside of the third row in fifth and advanced one spot forward for a fourth-place result. He then started and finished fifth in the 25-lap main event. The second night had a slightly inferior start for the Savage Racing #3F than the previous evening. The driver with the flowing locks qualified sixth fastest. He started eighth and finished ninth in his preliminary heat race. However, everything worked like a dream in the 25-lap main event. Sexton started on the pole and was the first car under the green flag. Twenty-five laps later, he was the first car to the checkered flag and thus picked up his second win of the year. For Saturday's finale on the brightly lit oval, there was no qualifying or heat races. It was just a 40-lap main event. Like the first night, Sexton started on the inside of the third row, and 160 turns later, he finished in fifth. That gave him two wins and five top-five finishes in seven starts with Fonseca in 2022. For Sexton and Fonseca, it was not the duo's first rodeo together at Lemoore. In 2021 they also combined to race there in the Cal Cup. The then 17-year-old surprised everyone in the stacked 26-car field when he set the fastest qualifying time on opening night. His best finish of the three nights in 2021 was a seventh on October 15th. This Friday and Saturday, Sexton will be in his GAS Chassis #74 410 sprint car when the USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Car Series combine forces in the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet Of Yuma Western World Championships Presented By Yuma Insurance and Avanti at the Cocopah Speedway. It will be the young driver's second trip to the beautiful track in Somerton, Arizona. One week later the personable teen will finish the 410 Sprint car portion of his 2022 schedule when the same two series switch locations to Southern California's Perris Auto Speedway for the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals. Sexton and the #74 team wish to extend their thanks to the following 2022 racing season partners. GAS Chassis, Key Brothers Racing, Nita Gatlin, Hugh Jorgan, Mike Pridgeon Racing Engines, AG Sandcars, Powder 1, Ron's Tire and Brake, and Savage Racing. If you would like to be a part of this fun, upcoming team and get exposure not only at the tracks but around the world on Flo Racing, please contact Shane Sexton at mailto:Shanesexton7@gmail.com or (619) 362-5921. Sexton would like to extend a thank you to Brian Fonseca and Samantha Sproull for the opportunity to wheel their lightning sprint and he would like to thank their team sponsors for making it possible. They are the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians, Foothill Tractor & Heavy Equipment, KB Rod Benders, and MJK Auto Sales.

  THREE PAST WINNERS - THOMAS, BALLOU AND LEARY - ENTER 26TH OVAL NATIONALS

  #saveperris (Perris, CA, October 24, 2022) Three more past winners are among the latest entries into the November 3rd, 4th and 5th 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. The trio is made up of three-time and defending champion Kevin Thomas Jr., C.J. Leary, and Robert Ballou. In addition, Justin Grant, and Brady Bacon, who are currently ranked first and second respectively in the USAC National Sprint Car point standings, have also submitted their entries. Thomas has been the dominant driver in the Oval Nationals in recent years. The Cullman, Alabama native has won three of the last four running's of the prestigious race. He went back to back in 2017 and 2018. In 2019, he started 16th in the stacked field and came all the way forward to sixth at the finish. Due to Covid, the race was not held in 2020, but last year Thomas came back to win again. That victory tied him with Concord, California's Damion Gardner (2009, 2011, 2016) and Bud Kaeding of Campbell, California (2001, 2002, 2007) as one of only three drivers to have won the Ovals three times. Thomas will be wheeling a car for California native Michael Dutcher while Gardner will be in Mark Alexander's famous silver #1 as they each try to become the first four time winner of the race.

When Thomas finished sixth in 2019, all eyes were on Leary at the end of the 40-lap grind. The Greenfield, Indiana star started on the pole and led 24-laps to secure his first-ever win at the Ovals. While Leary was the winner of the race, he was not the favorite going into the final night. Broken Arrow, Oklahoma's Bacon started on the pole in the Thursday preliminary and proceeded to lead all 30-laps. On Friday night he dominated again. He started third and led every single lap for the second night in a row. Anyone would have been a fool to bet against him in the 40-lap finale. Starting fourth he was a contender throughout and was challenging for the lead when a yellow flag came out. Leader Chase Stockon slowed dramatically going into turn three when he saw the yellow light. Bacon clipped Stockon's left rear tire and slid to a stop by the wall ending his hopes of sweeping the weekend. For Ballou, 2022 will be his first Oval Nationals since 2017. In 2014, the Rocklin, California native finished 23rd in the Thursday preliminary main. However, from that point on, he was on a roll. He won the Friday night preliminary and backed that up with a win in Saturday's 40-lap final. Twelve months later in 2015, Ballou mowed through the competition and won the 30-lappers on both preliminary nights. Counting the prelim mains and the 2014 finale, he had won four main events in a row at the Ovals. He was the favorite for the finale, but Bryan Clauson stole the show. After blowing an engine late in the Friday preliminary, Clauson left the track and drove to Phoenix to borrow a loner engine from Mike Martin. He picked up the bullet and drove straight back to Perris, arriving early in the morning. He then proceeded to win the main event from the middle of the pack. Ballou ended up fifth. While Ballou lost the battle that night, he won the war by winning his lone USAC National Sprint Car Series championship. Thus far, entries have been received for the top six drivers - Grant, Bacon, Leary, Ballou, series leading rookie Emerson Axsom of Franklin, Indian, and Suter, California's Logan Seavey - in the USAC National Sprint Car Series. Going into this weekend's 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet Of Yuma Western World Championships Presented By Yuma Insurance and Avanti at the Cocopah Speedway, Grant sits on top of the National Sprint standings. He has a 78-point lead over three-time series champion Bacon. Leary is third and trails Grant by 129 points. Ballou is fourth and Axsom is fifth. The title will be decided at the Oval Nationals. The eight combined wins by past champions Thomas, Ballou, Leary, and Gardner accounts for 32% of the first 25 Oval Nationals. Tickets for the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals are on sale online at the following link or by calling 1-800-595-4849.

  MATT McCARTHY AND LOGAN WILLIAMS BOTH MOVE UP IN MAIN EVENT ON WINDY NIGHT AT MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY

  (Ontario, CA, October 15, 2022) On a night when the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series saw more than its share of torn up race cars at the Mohave Valley Raceway, Flowdynamics drivers Matt McCarthy, and Logan Williams each stayed out of trouble and moved forward from their initial starting positions in the 30-lap main event. The team is now preparing for its final two races of the 2022 campaign at the Cocopah Speedway and Perris Auto Speedway. Making its second appearance at the Arizona racetrack, the team was greeted by the same breezy conditions to start the night that they faced at the track six months earlier. In addition to the gorgeous #28M and #5W cars of McCarthy and Williams, 30 other USAC/CRA teams had gathered for the event in the "Copper State." Riverside, California resident McCarthy timed in 13 fastest with a lap of 15.066 in qualifying. Yorba Linda, California's Williams, who always competes in USAC CRA against his two older brothers, was 21st quickest in the time trials with a lap of 15.309. 308011970_8817249351625888_1653948878277159748_n.jpg Logan Williams is sixth in the UCAC/CRA Series points. Bobby Kimbrough photo. The two young teammates found themselves pitted against each other along with six other competitors in the first heat race of the night on the 1/3 of a mile Arizona banked clay oval. Williams started on the pole in the 10-lapper with McCarthy right behind him on the inside of the second row. They commandeered the second and third spots as soon as the race took the green flag. A late race pass netted McCarthy a second-place finish with Williams taking third. 308202719_8818751531475670_9050085584540182177_n.jpg Matt McCarthy is 10th in USAC/CRA points. Bobby Kimbrough photo. For the last 30-lap sprint car main event on the Arizona Oval for this year, McCarthy began the race on the outside of row 6. Williams was coming from the inside of row 10 in the 19th position. Both drivers managed to stay out of trouble in the 30-lapper and they both advanced forward. McCarthy brought it home in the 10th spot. That is the same position he finished in April. Williams advanced three spots forward and finished 16th. That was six positions better than he finished at the track in April when a faux pas by another car knocked him out of the race on the first lap. McCarthy remains 10th in the standings and is 61-points out of ninth going into Cocopah. William stayed in the sixth-place spot and is only 38-points out of fifth. The flow dynamics team will not return to action until October 28th and 29th in the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented by Yuma Insurance and Avanti at Cocopah Speedway. One week after that, the Flowdynamics drivers will close the 2022 campaign at the November 3rd, 4th, and 5th 26 annual Heimark Anheuser-Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. Even though the end of the 2022 season is only three weeks away, the hard work for the 2023 campaign will begin almost immediately. The team will be tearing down the cars, going over them, and making any repairs and adjustments needed. They will also be ordering parts and discussing the possibility of marketing opportunities for 2023. If you or your company would like to be a part of one of the West Coast's most visible sprint car teams for the upcoming season, please contact John McCarthy at 909 930-5522 or mailto:john@flody.inc mailto:john@flodyinc.com When you are at a race that the Flowdynamics drivers are competing in, be sure to head down to the pits to meet McCarthy and Williams and pick up one of their fine-looking team shirts. McCarthy and Williams would like to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. TAKES EIGHTH PLACE IN MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY USAC/CRA SPRINT CAR MAIN EVENT

  (Chino, CA, October 15, 2022) Eddie Tafoya Jr. came home with an eighth-place finish on October 8th in the USAC/CRA Series 30-lap main event at the Mohave Valley Raceway. The finish gave the rising young star 13 top 10 results in the series' first sixteen races of 2022. Next up on October 28th and 29th will be the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented By Yuma Insurance and Avanti at Arizona's Cocopah Speedway. Both nights will be full points paying shows for the Amsoil USAC/CRA and National Sprint Car Series drivers. 308007319_8813902748627215_2717159562557978817_n.jpg Eddie Tafoya Jr. lifts his front wheels coming off turn two at Perris Auto Speedway. Bobby Kimbrough Photo. The October 8th race was the 25-year-old driver's second appearance at the track that is located minutes from the Colorado River. His first attempt at racing on the banked 1/3 mile clay oval came on April 23rd of this year when he placed third in the main event. At the race on the second weekend in October, he opened his show with a sizzling lap of 16.667 in qualifying. That was the second-fastest time in the stout 32-car field. After starting sixth in his ten-lap heat race, Tafoya went from fifth to third on the second lap before a yellow sent him back to fourth due to a couple of cars tangling in turn four. Once racing resumed, the Chino Hills, California resident drove back into third and stayed there until slipping to fourth on the last go-around. The fourth-place finish guaranteed him a spot in the first three rows of the main event. After a long track prep for the 30-lapper, Tafoya was starting on the outside of the third row in sixth as he was the fastest qualifier to finish in the top four in the heat races. After racing into fifth early on, the 2019 USAC/CRA and Southwest Rookie of the Year, slipped back to ninth. However, he clawed his way back to eighth in the waning laps on the windy night in Arizona. The finish extended his USAC/CRA streak of finishing no worse than eighth to six months and 10 races. The 8th place result allowed Tafoya to close to within 19-points of the third-place driver in the season-long championship point standings with five races to go. Starting with opening night at the Western World on October 28th, the final five races will combine the USAC/CRA Series with the USAC National Sprint Car Series. After the two nights at Cocopah, the action will return to Tafoya's home track, Perris Auto Speedway, to close the season with the 26th annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals on November 3rd, 4th and fifth. As soon as the 2022 season comes to an end, Tafoya, and The Specialty Fasteners #51T team, will be prepping for the 2023 campaign. The cars will be stripped down to bare frames before being rebuilt and ready to go on the other side of the New Year. In addition to the work on the cars in the shop, the team will be busy exploring corporate partnership opportunities for the upcoming campaign. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the Specialty Fasteners team in 2023, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's plans. Be sure to stop by the Specialty Fasteners hauler after the races race to meet Tafoya and his team and to pick up one of his great-looking team shirts.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON MAKES USAC/CRA MAIN AT MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY - GOING TO LEMOORE THIS WEEK

  (Warner Springs, CA, October 12, 2022) A surprise Tuesday night phone call was gladly welcomed by "Shugah" Shane Sexton when car owner Brian Fonseca was on the other end of the line. Once he answered the call, he was asked if he would like to drive in this week's annual Cal Cup at the Lemoore Raceway. This week was supposed to be an off week from racing for "Shugah," but he jumped at the opportunity to drive in the prestigious race. 1 308100399_8818754241475399_7398490641119522908_n.jpg "Shugah" Shane Sexton in his USAC/CRA 410 Sprint Car. Bobby Kimbrough photo. Sexton, 18, comes into this week's event after a road trip to Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway to compete with the USAC/CRA 410 sprint cars last Saturday night. Wheeling the always pretty #74 car, the Warner Springs, California driver qualified 24th out of the 32 cars gathered at the 1/3 mile clay oval. His time of 15.663 placed him in the fourth heat race. The young driver finished fifth in the 10-lapper and that forced him into the 12-lap B main. After battling in the top five through the first seven laps of the B, a car in front of Sexton spun in turn four leaving the recent high school graduate nowhere to go. He slammed sideways into the car. Fortunately, Sexton was able to continue, but he had to restart at the back. A late race charge in that B saw him come back to take the final transfer spot into the 30-lap main event on the windy Arizona night. For the 30-lap finale, "Shugah" was starting 21st. The teen avoided trouble on the second lap heading into turn one where a five-car tangle took place in front of him. He managed to get stopped before he contacted any of the cars and restarted when the track went back under green. As per his usual, once the race got going again, he stayed out of trouble and moved forward from his 21st starting spot to finish 17th. For this week, Sexton journeys to California's fertile Central Valley for the Cal Cup. While it will be his first time at the track in 2022, he is certainly no stranger to the racy little joint. Last year he teamed with Northern California's Fonseca for the same race and was the fastest qualifier on the final night. His best finish of the three-night competition came on night two when he placed seventh in the main event. Thus far in 2022, Sexton and Fonseca have raced together five times. They have finished in the top five on four of those occasions. Those finishes include a win at the Deming Speedway in Washington at the Clay cup on July 15th in a second place in the POWRi Lightning Sprint Car Nationals on May 28th at the Central Missouri Speedway. The Lemoore Raceway is located at 1750 Highway 41, Lemoore, CA 93245. The track website is http://www.lemoorejetbowl.com/ and the office email is mailto:lremembership@gmail.com. Sexton and the #74 team wish to extend their thanks to the following 2022 racing season partners. Gas Chassis, Key Brothers Racing, Nita Gatlin, Hugh Jorgan, Mike Pridgeon Racing Engines, AG Sandcars, Powder 1, Ron's Tire and Brake, and Savage Racing. If you would like to be a part of this fun, upcoming team and get exposure not only at the tracks but around the world on Flo Racing, please contact Shane Sexton at mailto:Shanesexton7@gmail.com or (619) 362-5921. Sexton would like to extend a thank you to Brian Fonseca and Samantha Sproull for the opportunity to wheel their lightning sprint and he would like to thank their team sponsors for making it possible. They are the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians, Foothill Tractor & Heavy Equipment, KB Rod Benders, and MJK Auto Sales.

The veteran driver started 11th in the 30-lap main event and took the lead with three laps to go and raced on to victory. The current hottest driver in USAC/CRA, the win was his third in the series' last five races. 310827843_172659162092098_8638555873193670549_n.jpg Brody Roa and crew after last Saturday's win at Mohave Valley Raceway. USAC/CRA Photo. It was the first race for the 31-year-old Garden Grove, California driver at the track that is located just minutes inside the Arizona border. His bright green #91R was one of 32 cars at the track's second sprint car race of the season. Roa's qualifying time of 14.907 was only the 11th fastest of the night. That time was not going to do him any favors when it came time to line up for the main event. Before the main, Roa had to contest a 10-lap heat race. For that one, he was starting on the outside of row two. By the end of the third circuit he was out front and soon thereafter he established a lead of more than a half straightaway. His prowess was hindered late in the race when a yellow flag brought the field to the back of his car. However, when the green flag waved again with just a couple of laps remaining, he streaked away and won by nearly a half straight. Before the main event, the track staff completely reworked the racetrack. Roa was coming from the inside of row 6 in the 11th starting position. Odds on winning from that far back in the field are usually stacked against the driver. Somebody forgot to tell Roa about that! He methodically worked his way forward early on and was up to sixth at the halfway point. However, five laps later, he became the driver to watch. Roa advanced to the 5th place spot on lap 20 and moved up one position in each of the next three laps. That put the streaking #91R in the runner-up position with seven laps to go. Running the top through one and two and the bottom in three and four, he was clearly the fastest car on the racetrack. Within a couple of laps, he was on the pace setter's tail. On lap 27, he blew by for the lead. From that point on he easily pulled away and scored the win by nearly a half straightaway. Overall, that was his fourth sprint car victory of 2022. "It had a lot of character, that is for sure," Roa replied when asked what he thought of the track on his first visit. "We went with that same package we have been experimenting with recently. With all the character on the track, we really had to tune on it all night." "With how good we were in the heat race, I wasn't ruling it out," the veteran said when queried about starting 11th. "Did I think we were going to win, maybe not. I definitely knew we could have driven up to the podium. It became one of those tracks that fell into what I think my wheelhouse is. Especially with the bottom of three and four where you had to be really patient getting in through the center to hit the exit. It seemed that is where everybody else seemed to struggle and where I drove through the field with them committing to the top or missing the bottom. I don't know if I passed anybody down in one and two." This Saturday Roa will be right back at it as he will be steering Jayson May's #8M in the USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series' George "Ziggy" Snider Classic on the Dirt Track at the Kern County Raceway Park in Bakersfield. Roa drove the same car to victory at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway on August 27th. Four weeks ago at Ventura, he drove the same car to a win in his heat race but the team withdrew the car before the main event due to a parts malfunction. Fortunately, the damage was minor and they are ready to return. Gates at Kern County will open at 4:00 p.m. With racing at 6:30. Adult tickets are $25.00. Juniors 6-10 are only $5.00 and children 5 and under are admitted free. The track is located at 13500 Raceway Blvd at Interstate 5 and Enos Lane in Bakersfield. The track website is https://www.kernraceway.com/ and the phone number is 661-835-1264. If you wish to hear Roa's recent appearance on the Dirt Tracks and Rib Racks podcast, you can do so at the following link https://spoti.fi/3cjQrLL. In 2022, Roa is racing in the USAC/CRA, USAC National, and other select events, in his #91R BR Performance/HD Industries Eagle. He will also drive the #8M for May Motorsports in select USAC West Coast events. The 2019 USAC Southwest and 2017 USAC West Coast champion is always open to discussing other driving opportunities. Roa and the team want to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. HD Industries, Burris Racing, Sander Engineering, Inland Rigging, Caltrol, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Competition Suspension, ALR Virtual Services, K-1 Race Gear, Molecule, Rod End Supply, Driven Racing Oil, Baldwin Filters, and NGK Spark Plugs. In addition, the veteran driver offers thanks to RDM Mechanics, Fastenal, KC Keen Concrete, Coopers Propane, Ten West Towing, Ten West Environmental, TJM Distribution, and Westco International for sponsoring the #8M he will pilot for Jayson May on 10 occasions in 2022.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. CONTINUES IMPRESSIVE SEASON SATURDAY AT MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY

  (Chino, CA, October 7, 2022) When the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars return to the Mohave Valley Raceway for the second time in 2022 this Saturday night, one of the drivers for fans to pay attention to is Chino Hills, California resident Eddie Tafoya Jr. The 25-year-old is poised to make a good run in the final six races of the year beginning this Saturday at the 1/3 of a mile Arizona clay oval. The handsome driver goes into the race fourth in the season-long point standings and is only 36 points out of third, and less than 80 out of second. 307165398_8817313458286144_1530755967684030224_n (1).jpg Eddie Tafoya Jr. finished third in his first ever race at Mohave Valley Raceway. Bobby Kimbrough photo. On his first trip to the track on April 23rd, Tafoya adapted quickly. He was the sixth-fastest qualifier in the 27-car field. He then moved from his fifth place starting spot to finish third in his 10-lap heat race. In the 30-lap main, he started second, but early on he slipped back to sixth. In the second half of the competitive race, "Mr. Smooth" made some exciting moves and advanced all the way forward to third at the checkered flag. That result was his second-best of the season only trailing a runner-up finish at Cocopah on January 29th. Going back to the Mohave race five and a half months ago, he has contested nine USAC/CRA races. He has placed in the top eight in all of them. Included in the streak are five top-five finishes. They include the third at Mohave, a fourth, and three fifth-place results. After this weekend's race, the USAC/CRA schedule will be down to five dates that will all take place in a nine-day period. First off will be the October 28th and 29th 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented by Yuma Insurance and Avanti. The following week, Tafoya will close his 2022 season when Perris Auto Speedway Presents the 26th Heimark Anheuser Busch/Budweiser Oval Nationals on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Be sure to stop by the Specialty Fasteners hauler after Saturday's race to meet Tafoya and his team and to pick up one of his great-looking team shirts. To catch Saturday's race at Mohave Valley Raceway in person, the spectator gates will open at 5:30 with racing at 7:00. The track is located at 2750 E. Laguna Road, Mohave Valley, Arizona (only about four and a half hours from Los Angeles). The track website is https://www.mohavevalleyraceway.com/ and the office phone number is (928) 346-3000. The track is a cash-only facility with no ATM on site. While the season will end the first week in November, Tafoya, and The Specialty Fasteners #51T team will be hard at work getting ready for next season. The cars will be stripped down and gone over with a fine tooth comb in preparation for Tafoya's fourth year of 410 sprint car racing. In addition to the work on the cars in the shop, the team will be busy exploring corporate partnership opportunities for the upcoming campaign. If you or your company would like to be a partner with the Specialty Fasteners team in 2023, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at teamtafoya@aol.com.

  McCARTHY AND WILLIAMS HEAD TO MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 2022

  (Ontario, CA, October 7, 2022) For the second time in the 2022 racing season, Flowdynamics sprint car team drivers Matt McCarthy and Logan Williams will head to the Mohave Valley Raceway this Saturday night, October 8th, to compete in the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series. Going into the race on the 1/3 of a mile bank clay oval, Williams is ranked sixth in series points and McCarthy is 10th. Yorba Linda, California's Williams slipped one position back to sixth in the standings after a couple of recent crashes at Perris Auto Speedway. However, the second-generation sprint car driver is only three points out of fifth. His oldest brother, Cody Williams, is seventh in the standings with his other brother, Austin Williams, currently third. McCarthy, who lives in Riverside, California, is ranked 10th in the championship standings. That is the position he has been in for most of the 2022 campaign. With six races to go, he trails the ninth-place car by 48 points. PAS 9_17_22=28M=314-3#32A0.jpg Matt McCarthy driver of the Flowdynamics #28M. Doug Allen photo. It has been nearly six months since the Flowdynamics duo competed in the first series race at the track that is minutes away from the Colorado River, and only about 20 minutes away from downtown Laughlin, Nevada. When they entered that race in late April, Williams was fifth in the championship standings and McCarthy was 10th. McCarthy, who has noticeably stepped up his qualifying efforts in 2022, was the third-fastest driver of the 27 on hand in time trials that night with a lap of 14.318. Williams timed in 15th quickest at 14.998. Williams placed second in his 10-lap heat race and earned a ticket directly into the 30-lap main event. McCarthy ended up fifth in his heat race and to make it to the A main he had to run the 12-lap semi. PAS 9_17_22=5w=3126-3#AC67.jpg] Logan Williams in the Flowdynamics #5W. Doug Allen Photo. McCarthy started on the pole in the semi and led every inch of the way. When the race finished, he was a full straightaway ahead of the second-place driver. Performing in front of one of the largest crowds in track history, McCarthy was starting seventh in the 30-lap finale. Williams was coming from the 14th spot. When the green flag sent the 23-car field on its way in the first sprint car race at the track since 1998, things did not get far. The race only got as far as turn 2 when the red lights came on. The car in front of Williams slowed coming off turn two and drifted up the track. That left Williams with nowhere to go. He caught a piece of the slowing car's right rear tire, flipped into the air, and landed on top of another car before coming to rest on all four wheels. Unfortunately, his car was too damaged to restart. McCarthy became embroiled in a wild seven-car battle that raged throughout the entire event. When the checkered flag ended the race, he flew across the line in 10th. At the series' last race at Perris Auto Speedway on September 17th, McCarthy and Williams qualified sixth and 11th respectively in the 21-car field. McCarthy was fifth in his heat race. Williams was knocked out of action for the night when he crashed in his heat. McCarthy started eighth in the main event, but a flat tire sent him to the back. From there he dazzled the fans with a determined drive that saw him come all the way back to finish in 12th. The young racing duo got an unexpected night off last Saturday when the race at Perris was canceled due to a festival at the lake next to the track. That left six more dates on the USAC/CRA schedule this season. Spectator gates will open at 5:30 on Saturday with racing at 7:00. The Mohave Valley Raceway is located at 2750 E. Laguna Road, Mohave Valley, Arizona. The track website is https://www.mohavevalleyraceway.com/ and the office phone number is (928) 346-3000. The track is a cash-only facility with no ATM on site. After Mohave, McCarthy and Williams will get two weekends off before returning to action at the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet Yuma Western World Championships Presented by Yuma Insurance and Avanti on October 28th and 29th. The following week they will close the 2022 campaign at Perris Auto Speedway's 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch/Budweiser Oval Nationals on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Fans can meet the friendly Flowdynamics drivers in the pits after Saturday's final race. McCarthy and Williams will also have their team shirts available at that time. McCarthy and Williams would like to thank the following sponsors for making the 2021 season possible. Flowdynamics Inc., JFK Design Build, Cal Therm Mechanical Insulators, CRC Component Repair Co., Encore Gas and Supply, Drink-Pac, and Benic Enterprises.

  BRODY ROA MAKES MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY DEBUT ON SATURDAY

  (Cypress, CA, October 4, 2022) One of Southern California's most popular Sprint car racers, Brody Roa, will be making his first-ever appearance at the Mohave Valley Raceway this Saturday night, October 8th. The decision to race at Mohave Valley came after originally planning to race a winged car at Keller Auto Speedway in Hanford this weekend. In addition to announcing that he would be competing in Saturday's race at Mohave Valley, the veteran driver announced that the team has decided to contest the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented by Yuma Insurance and Avanti at Cocopah Speedway on October 28th and 29th. 123790329_10217040850644335_2822016236474858647_n.jpg Before the start of the 2022 campaign, Roa announced that he was not going to be chasing points this season. Thus far he has contested 10 of the 15 USAC/CRA races on the schedule. The 31-year-old has an impressive record of only finishing out of the top six one time and placing in the top five six times. Included in those finishes were back-to-back series wins at the Perris Auto Speedway and the Santa Maria Raceway in late June and early August. His average finish with USAC/CRA this year is 5.55. Even though the Garden Grove, California driver is not point racing, he goes into Saturday's event eighth in the USAC/CRA championship standings. He is only 31 points out of seventh and 72 points out of fifth. Saturday will be Roa's sixth start in Arizona in 2022. He opened his sprint car season in late January with three straight nights of USAC/CRA racing in the state at the Cocopah Speedway, which is also known as "The Diamond In The Desert." He followed that up on the second weekend of February with two races in the ASCS/CAS 360 series at the Central Arizona Speedway. It was on that weekend that he had his best finish in Arizona this year when he placed second. All told he has four top-five finishes when crossing the Colorado River to race in the "Copper State" and his worst finish was sixth. His average finish in Arizona this year is 4.40. While the season is winding down for many drivers across the nation, Roa is going to be quite busy through the Thanksgiving weekend. In fact, the likable driver still has nine races on his schedule. Following this weekend's race at Mohave, he will head to the Dirt Track at Kern County Raceway Park in Bakersfield to drive Jason Mays #8M in the USAC West Coast series on October 15th. Following that he will be headed back to Arizona for the previously mentioned Western World Championships. To start the month of November, Roa will have three nights of racing in the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. He will then wrap up his 2022 season driving for May in the 81st running of the historic Turkey Night Grand Prix at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway. Spectator gates at the Mohave Valley Raceway will open at 5:30 on Saturday and racing will start at 7:00. The track is located minutes across the California/Arizona state line at 2750 E. Laguna Road, Mohave Valley, Arizona. The track website is https://www.mohavevalleyraceway.com/ and the office phone number is (928) 346-3000. The track is a cash-only facility with no ATM on site.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON ON THE ROAD TO ARIZONA'S MOHAVE VALLEY RACEWAY THIS SATURDAY

  (Warner Springs, CA, October 3, 2022) If you are a sprint car fan living in Southern California, all roads will lead to Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway this Saturday night, October 8th, when the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series makes its second-ever appearance at the 1/3 mile bank clay Oval. One of the drivers who will be on the road is "Shugah" Shane Sexton of El Cajon, California. 308339317_8818752381475585_1598402315327103474_n.jpg "Shugah" Shane Sexton has not finished in a worse position than he started in seven USAC/CRA starts in 2022. This Saturday he will be at the Mohave Valley Raceway. Bobby Kimbrough photo. Sexton rolls into the race at the track that is mere minutes from the Colorado River and only 20 minutes from downtown Laughlin ranked 19th in USAC/CRA points. That is two places higher than he was before the series last raced at Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday, September 17th. The 2022 El Capitan High School graduate has contested seven USAC/CRA races in 2022 and he has qualified for the main event every single time. In the seven starts, he finished the race in a better position than he started every time. All told, he has passed 40 cars in those seven races. That works out to a fine passing average of 5.71 cars per race. Sexton's best passing performance of the year came at the series' only other appearance at Mohave valley on April 23rd. On that night, the young driver started 21st in the main event and he passed nine cars on his way to a 12th place finish. In his other six races, he has passed eight cars, seven cars twice, three cars, five cars, and one car. The night he only passed one car was on April 29th when he flipped wildly and was knocked out of the race on lap two at Perris. In addition to passing nine cars the last time he was at Mojave Valley, Sexton qualified 19th fastest and was fifth in his heat race. After Saturday's race, Sexton will get two weekends off before returning to Arizona for the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championships Presented by Yuma Insurance and Avanti on October 28th and 29th. One week later he will wrap up the USAC/CRA portion of his 2022 program at the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Spectator gates at the Mohave Valley Raceway will open at 5:30 on Saturday and racing will start at 7:00. The track is located minutes across the California/Arizona state line at 2750 E.

  PROMISING NIGHT ENDS EARLY FOR BRODY ROA AT VENTURA

  (Cypress, CA, September 30, 2022) After winning the USAC West Coast Sprint Car Series race at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway on August 27th, Brody Roa, and the May Motorsports #8M team had high hopes for a great night on the same oval last Saturday. However, the team's effort was cut short due to mechanical ills before the main event. 308013351_630008442171043_2513047703648094291_n.jpg The fresh graphics on the May Motorsports #8M. May Motorsports photo. Sporting some sparkling new graphics, the #8M was ready for another successful night at the track that is located a stone's throw from the Pacific Ocean. Things started off in fine fashion when Garden Grove, California-based Roa steered the car to the third fastest time in qualifying with a lap of 12.977. The veteran driver started last in his heat race, weaved his way through the field, and scored the win. However, that was his last hurrah of the night. An engine issue had reared its ugly head and rather than cause extensive and expensive damage, the team parked the car for the night. With the cancellation of this Saturday's race at Perris Auto Speedway, Roa will be spending time with his wife Tailor and their daughter Addison. He will be back in his #91R next Saturday at the NARC King of the West Twin 25's at Peter Murphy's Keller Auto Speedway. If you wish to hear Roa's recent appearance on the Dirt Tracks and Rib Racks podcast, you can do so at the following link https://spoti.fi/3cjQrLL. In 2022, Roa is racing in the USAC/CRA, USAC National, and other select events, in his #91R BR Performance/HD Industries Eagle. He will also drive the #8M for May Motorsports in select USAC West Coast events. The 2019 USAC Southwest and 2017 USAC West Coast champion is always open to discussing other driving opportunities. Roa and the team want to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. HD Industries, Burris Racing, Sander Engineering, Inland Rigging, Caltrol, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Competition Suspension, ALR Virtual Services, K-1 Race Gear, Molecule, Rod End Supply, Driven Racing Oil, Baldwin Filters, and NGK Spark Plugs. In addition, the veteran driver offers thanks to RDM Mechanics, Fastenal, KC Keen Concrete, Coopers Propane, Ten West Towing, Ten West Environmental, TJM Distribution, and Westco International for sponsoring the #8M he will pilot for Jayson May on 10 occasions in 2022. If you or your company would like to jump on board and receive recognition as a team partner throughout the 2022 racing season, please give the two-time USAC champion racer a phone call or drop him a note at the contact information on the top of this release.

  MATT McCARTHY PLACES 12TH IN THE GLENN HOWARD CLASSIC AT PERRIS

  (Ontario, CA, September 27, 2022) Matt McCarthy steered his number 28M USAC/CRA Sprint Car to a 12th place finish in the annual Glenn Howard Memorial at Perris Auto Speedway on September 17th. The finish kept the Riverside, California driver in the 10th place spot in the season-long series point standings. McCarthy and his teammate Logan Williams were among the 24 drivers in action for the mid-September race. After being the fast qualifier one month earlier on the Riverside County half-mile clay Oval, McCarthy turned in another good qualifying effort. This time he was six fastest of the 24 cars on hand with a 16.532. Yorba Linda California's Williams was not far behind as he stopped the clocks in 16.681. That was the 11th best time of the night. Williams was the first of the two on the track for heat race action. He started on the inside of row two in the first heat and was battling for the fourth-place spot through the first four circuits. When he got into turn one on lap five, he clipped the cushion entering the corner. His car was thrown into a series of nasty airborne flips that launched him into the turn-one billboards. The young driver climbed out uninjured but the #5W car sustained enough damage that it was done for the night. McCarthy was up in the 3rd and final heat race in which she started in the fifth position. He battled for 4th most of the way through the 10 lapper but in the end, he had to settle for the fifth place position. For the Glen Howard 30-lap memorial main event, McCarthy was starting in the eighth spot which is outside of row four. He stayed in that spot through the first half of the exciting race. He was still there when a yellow flag came out on lap 16. As the cars circled the track under caution conditions, McCarthy suddenly darted down into the work area with a flat left rear tire. The Flowdynamics crew immediately jumped on it and got him back onto the track in plenty of time before racing resumed. However, he would have to restart at the back due to stopping. From the back, McCarthy raced his head off. He passed numerous cars and when the checkered flag ended the race, he had moved all the way back up to 12th position. It was an impressive display that if he had some more laps, would have produced an even better result. This Saturday night, October 1st, McCarthy, and Williams were supposed to be back in action at Perris Auto Speedway. However, that race was canceled due to a large concert taking up all the fairground's parking. Therefore, the Flowdynamics duo will not be on the track until Saturday, October 8th when the series makes its second-ever appearance at the Mohave Valley Raceway in Arizona. After Mohave Valley, there will only be two weekends and five total race dates left on the USAC/CRA schedule. On October 28th and 29th there will be two nights of racing at the 55th Annual Western World Championships at the Cocopah Speedway. The following weekend the series will close out the campaign when it returns to Perris for the 26th Heimark Anheuser Busch/Budweiser Oval Nationals on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Both of those events will pay full points for the USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Cars each night. When you are at a race that the Flowdynamics drivers are competing in, be sure to head down to the pits to meet McCarthy and Williams and pick up one of their fine-looking team shirts. McCarthy and Williams would like to thank the following sponsors for making the 2021 season possible. Flowdynamics Inc., JFK Design Build, Cal Therm Mechanical Insulators, CRC Component Repair Co., Encore Gas and Supply, Drink-Pac, and Benic Enterprises.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. FINISHES 8TH AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY

  (Chino, CA, September 26, 2022) Eddie Tafoya Jr. maintained his grip on fourth place in the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series championship standings when he placed eighth in the September 17th 30-lap main event at Perris Auto Speedway. With just six races remaining in the season, he is now 108 points ahead of the 5th place driver. 307284638_8817312504952906_409493830939414744_n (1).jpg Eddie Tafoya Jr. at Perris Auto Speedway on September 17. Bobby Kimbrough photo. A healthy field of 24 410 Sprint cars showed up for the race at the track that is located 76 miles east of Hollywood. The 25-year-old driver with movie star good looks began his night by qualifying 13th fastest with a time of 16.779. While that 13th place qualifying time may not seem up to Tafoya's normal standards, one must realize that it was only.577 slower than the fastest qualifier in the tightly packed field. Tafoya started on the outside of the front row in the tough first 10-lap heat race. As soon as the race began, the Chino Hills, California driver jumped ahead of the pack and proceeded to lead the first four laps. When the checkers ended the hard-fought battle, Tafoya was in third. When the field assembled on the famous half-mile clay Oval for the 30-lap main event, Tafoya was on the outside of row six. There was only one way the 2019 USAC CRA and USAC southwest series rookie of the year wanted to go in the race and that was forward. That is exactly what he did. By the halfway point he had marched up to the eighth spot and he stayed there for the duration. The result kept Tafoya's best season in sprint car racing rolling along. He has a perfect attendance record through the first 15 USAC/CRA races. Besides a seven-day period when he finished out of the top 10 three times in a row, he has not finished worse than ninth in the other 12 races and he has six top five results. His overall finishing average in main events this year is 7.86. In the three races that he finished out of the top 10, his average was 15.33. In the other 12 races of the year where he has not finished worse than nine, he has a fine 6.00 finishing average. As mentioned earlier, Tafoya is 108 points ahead of the fifth-place driver as the season hits the home stretch. In addition, he only trails the racer in front of him by 36 points. This Saturday's scheduled race at Perris Auto Speedway has been canceled due to a concert at the nearby lake. Next up for Tafoya will be a return to Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway. Earlier this year he made his first-ever appearance at the "Copper State" track and placed third in the 30-lap main event. After the trip to Mohave, there will only be two weekends of racing remaining in 2022. The 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet Western World Championship at Cocopah Speedway in Somerton, Arizona on October 28th and 29th and the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway from November 3rd through the 5th. Tafoya has a great new YouTube channel at the following link https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1hrmC5L80EU. Be sure to stop by the Specialty Fasteners hauler after a race to meet Tafoya and his team and to pick up one of his great-looking team shirts. If you or your company would like to be a part of the Specialty Fastener team's effort, please contact Eddie Tafoya Jr. via phone at (909) 393-3999 or by e-mail at teamtafoya@aol.com. He will be happy to talk to you and lay out the team's 2023 plans. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON FINISHES 14TH IN PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY RETURN AND BREAKS INTO THE TOP 20 IN POINTS

  (Warner Springs, CA, September 24, 2022) Shaking off the 410 cobwebs after nearly five months out of action, "Shugah" Shane Sexton returned to USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series competition last Saturday night at Perris Auto Speedway. The affable driver started 19th in the 30-lap main event and drove forward for a 14th-place finish. Driving a new GAS Chassis, Sexton timed in with a lap of 17.187 and contested the third 10-lap heat race. After a disappointing seventh-place finish in the heat, the Warner Springs, California driver lined up in the 19th position to start the 30-lap main event. He steered clear of all the tangles happening on the track and moved forward throughout the race. When Steve Russell's checkered flag brought the proceedings to a halt at the end of the 30th lap, "Shugah" was all the way up to 14th. Moving forward in the race also propelled Sexton higher up in the series championship point standings. To be exact, he jumped from 21st to 19th position heading into the next race at Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway on October 8th. Sexton's only other appearance at the track which is located a few minutes from the Colorado River and only 20 minutes from Laughlin, was a prosperous one. After qualifying 22nd fastest and placing eighth in his heat on April 22nd, Sexton started 21st in the main and advanced nine positions to finish 12th on the racy 1/3 mile oval. Sexton was due to be back on the track on October 1st at Perris with the USAC/CRA Series but that race has been canceled. As previously mentioned, he will return to action at Mohave Valley. The young driver will then wrap up his 410 sprint car season with five races in nine days. The first two dates are at the 55th Annual Chapman Chevrolet of Yuma Western World Championship at Arizona's Cocopah Speedway on October 28th and 29th. That will be followed by the 26th Annual Heimark Anheuser Busch Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Sexton and the #74 team wish to extend their thanks to the following 2022 racing season partners. Gas Chassis, Key Brothers Racing, Nita Gatlin, Hugh Jorgan, Mike Pridgeon Racing Engines, AG Sandcars, Powder 1, Ron's Tire and Brake, and Savage Racing.

  BRODY ROA TAKES THIRD IN PERRIS USAC/CRA RACE - RACING IN USAC WEST COAST SERIES THIS WEEK

  (Cypress, CA, September 22, 2022) Brody Roa rebounded from a disastrous USAC/CRA Sprint Car race at Perris Auto Speedway in August to finish third in the Glenn Howard Memorial last Saturday night. This Saturday he will journey north to team up with Jayson May in the USAC West Coast Series race at the Ventura Raceway. 297879254_2204237209743457_8079382424926505894_n.jpg Brody Roa will be trying to steer Jason May's #8M to the win Saturday at Ventura. Lance Jennings photo. After two weeks of scorching heat, race teams and fans were greeted by temperatures in the mid-80s for Saturday's show. Roa, who lives in Garden Grove California, was one of 24 USAC/CRA Sprint Car drivers on hand for the show. Stopping the clocks at 16.540, the 31-year-old veteran racer was eighth fastest on the night. That is not the ideal place to qualify. If the seven cars who qualified faster than him all finished in the top four in their heat race, that would mean the best Roa could start in the main event would be eighth. However, things worked out perfectly. He won his heat race and two cars who qualified faster than he finished, fifth or worse. That meant Roa would be on the pole for the 30-lap main event. Before he got to that main event, Roa contested a 10-lap heat race. Starting on the outside of row 2, he led the last 6 laps for his fourth heat win of the year in the series. "Seems like we are always pretty good in heat races here this year," the popular driver told the crowd after his win. "We are trying something a lot different with the car tonight. We have to work on it a little bit for the feature. Cody (Cody Williams who was leading Roa in the heat before dropping out), was definitely way better. He would have smoked us if he didn't break or whatever happened. So, we have to work on it a little bit for the feature and we will be all right." Whatever crew chief Zac Bozanich and the crew worked on before the main, it worked out well. As soon as the race started, Roa burst into the lead. He proceeded to set the early pace and led the first nine laps before relinquishing the top spot. The friendly driver stayed close to the leader. He was second after a restart with a couple of laps to go, but a small bobble coming off turn two cost him and he dropped to third. He stayed on the throttle and crossed the finish line only two lengths behind the second-place car. It was his fifth USAC/CRA podium in only 10 races this year. Two of the podiums, Perris in June and Santa Maria in August, were wins. "We brought a really different package tonight on the car," Roa said at the end of the race. "We worked on it all night. It needs a few tweaks on it. We will take it and learn from it. It was worth trying something as we are not point racing. We are not worried about it if we run third. Winning would have been nice and the paycheck is a little bit better. We come to win and we also come to get better. Trying things is what we need to do to do that. Thanks to all my guys. My dad, Zach, Joe, Uncle B, Zach's mom Tracey, my wife and daughter, she turns two tomorrow. That is big and exciting. I wish I could have brought her a trophy home. We will go have a party tomorrow and enjoy the weekend." This Saturday, September 24th, Roa will be back in Jayson May's #8M for the USAC West Coast Series race at Jim Naylor's Ventura Raceway. Thus far in 2022, Roa has made two appearances at Ventura. On June 11th he placed second in the USAC/CRA main and on August 27th, he won the West Coast Series main in May's car. Three weeks before that, he drove May's car, which is a 360, to the win in the USAC/CRA 410 main event at the Santa Maria Raceway. For fans who would like to attend Saturday's race to see Roa driving the #8M, spectator gates will open at 3:00 p.m. and the first race will be at 5:30. The track is located on the Ventura County Fairgrounds at 10 W. Harbor Boulevard (93001). The website is http://venturaraceway.com/ and the office phone number is (805) 648-RACE. Adult tickets are $22.00. Seniors 60 and over, military with id, and students with id get in for $18.00. Children 12 and under are free when they are accompanied by an adult.

In 2022, Roa is racing in the USAC/CRA, USAC National, and other select events, in his #91R BR Performance/HD Industries Eagle. He will also drive the #8M for May Motorsports in select USAC West Coast events. The 2019 USAC Southwest and 2017 USAC West Coast champion is always open to discussing other driving opportunities.

  "SHUGAH" SHANE SEXTON RETURNS TO THE PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY 410 SPRINT CAR BATTLES ON SATURDAY

  (Warner Springs, CA, September 16, 2022) Nearly five months after his wild crash, "Shugah" Shane Sexton will return to 410 sprint car action in the USAC/CRA Series Saturday night at Perris Auto Speedway. The effervescent teen will be debuting a brand new GAS Chassis in his return. Spectator gates at the popular half-mile clay oval will open at 5:00 p.m. and racing will start at 7:00. 294095087_1658893874492132_7192374924082014097_n.jpg "Shugah" Shane Sexton. GAS Photo. Saturday will be the sixth start of the year for the 18-year-old in the premier wingless sprint car series West of the Mississippi. Four of those starts have been in Arizona and the other two have been at Perris. Sexton's plan was to race most of the races in the series this year. The season started out that way when he started five of the first seven races only sitting out a pair in Central California. His early season was punctuated by some impressive main event passing jobs. His best finish came at Cocopah on January 29th. On that night, the talkative racer started 18th in the main event and drove all the way to 11th for his best finish of the year. He also earned the Hard Charger Award on that night. Even though he has only started six of the 14 races in the series this year, he is still ranked 21st in the championship point standings. He should move back into the top 20 tomorrow night. Things were rolling along well for Sexton until the last Saturday in April at Perris. Heading into turn one on lap two of the main event, he tangled with another car and began a series of nasty flips that saw him tumble all the way to the crashwall. The car was bent, but it did its job and Sexton climbed out unscathed and ready to race again. In fact, he was supposed to race a couple of times already in a new chassis, but there was a delay in getting his engine back after it was sent out to be refreshed. Sexton should be very familiar with the GAS Chassis as his father Stan is the proprietor of the new company and builds them in his Warner Springs Ranch shop. GAS stands for Gatlin And Sexton. The Gatlin in the name is Sexton's grandmother Nita Gatlin. For more information on the new chassis or for pricing, please use the contact information in this press release. While he was out of his 410 sprint car, Sexton stayed busy wheeling a Brian Fonseca owned Lightning Sprint Car in six races in three different states. Included in the six starts was a win in a preliminary at the prestigious Dirt Cup at Washington's Deming Speedway on July 15th. He also placed second in the POWRi Lightning Sprint Car Nationals at the Central Missouri Speedway on May 28th. Last month, he finished third in the CLS race at the Santa Maria Speedway. Adult tickets to see "Shugah" Shane and the rest of the stars in action on Saturday are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over get in for $25.00. For kids 6 to 12, it is just $5.00. Children 5 and under are admitted free. There will be plenty of tickets available for everyone at the ticket window on Saturday, this event will not sell out. Perris Auto Speedway is located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds at 18700 Lake Perris Drive in the city of Paris (91767). The track website is http://www.perrisautospeedway.com/ and the office phone number is (951) 940-0134. The fairgrounds charges $10 for parking. For fans who come east on the 91 Freeway to get to The PAS, the eastbound lanes will be shut down all weekend in Corona. Fans can take the 91 east to either the 605 or the 57 north to the 60 Freeway east. Sexton and the #74 team wish to extend their thanks to the following 2022 racing season partners. Gas Chassis, Key Brothers Racing, Nita Gatlin, Hugh Jorgan, Mike Pridgeon Racing Engines, AG Sandcars, Powder 1, Ron's Tire and Brake, and Savage Racing.

  MATT McCARTHY AND LOGAN WILLIAMS RACING IN GLENN HOWARD MEMORIAL SATURDAY

  (Ontario, CA, September 15, 2022) After four weeks off, the Ontario, California-based Flowdynamics Sprint Car team, which is comprised of Matt McCarthy and Logan Williams, will return to action in Saturday's 14th Annual Glenn Howard Memorial at Perris Auto Speedway. The competition will be the first for the two veteran drivers since the California Racer's Hall of Fame Night at Perris on August 20th. Spectator gates at the famous Riverside County half-mile clay oval will open at 5:00 p.m. and racing will commence at 7:00. PAS 3-26-22=28m 5w=1085-3.jpg Matt McCarthy (inside) and Logan Williams will be at the Glenn Howard Memorial Saturday. Doug Allen photo. The team returns to the track that is located about 75 miles east of Los Angeles after having mixed results there at the last race. To start off the night, McCarthy, who makes his home in Riverside, California, set the fastest time in qualifying with a sizzling 16.845. It was his first ever fast time and it could not have come on a better night. The California Racer's Hall of Fame Night features a lot of extra money up for grabs. McCarthy grabbed some of it when he pocketed $1000.00 for the Billy Wilkerson Fast Time Award. If that was not enough, a few minutes later he won the Junior Kurtz/Bill Simpson Trophy Dash. That dash was comprised of four separate three-lap races with the four fastest qualifiers. When the checkered flag waved over the last one, McCarthy had scored more points than his three foes and took the win that paid $2000.00. For the main event, McCarthy started seventh. In storybook fashion, he would have won the main event as well, but that did not happen. Early in the race, he was battling to get into the top five when contact was made with another car and he stopped on the track. He had to go to the back for the restart and ended up 13th. Williams night ended just after it started with a violent crash in turn four in qualifying. The Yorba Linda, California racer walked away from the incident uninjured, but his car suffered heavy damage and it was through for the night. Each Flowdynamics driver has started four of the five A main events at Perris this year and each has two top 10 finishes. Williams recorded his best Perris finish when he placed fifth on June 25th. McCarthy's best finish this year at the team's home track was a 7th at the March 26th season opener. That is his overall best finish of the year (all tracks combined). Williams best overall finish came at the Bakersfield Speedway when he placed fourth on May 14th. Despite his qualifying tumble, Williams remained fifth in the series championship standings. McCarthy is currently 10th. The two teammates will get one week off before returning to Perris on October 1st. From there it will be on to Arizona's Mohave Valley Raceway on October 8th. After that, there will be a total of five dates left in the year. They start with two nights of action at the 55th Annual Western World Championships at the Cocopah Speedway on October 28th and 29th. The following weekend they will return to Perris to wrap up the season at the 26th Heimark Anheuser Busch/Budweiser Oval Nationals on November 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Both of those events will pay full points for the USAC/CRA and USAC National Sprint Cars each night. After Saturday's race ends, be sure to head down to the pits to meet the Flowdynamics drivers and pick up their team racing shirts. Adult tickets to see the Flowdynamics drivers in action on Saturday are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over get in for $25.00. For kids 6 to 12, it is just $5.00. Children 5 and under are admitted free. There will be plenty of tickets available for everyone at the ticket window on Saturday, this event will not sell out. For those who wish to purchase advance tickets, they are available 24 hours a day online at https://www.tix.com/ticket-sales/pas/7/event/1256365 or by calling 1-800-595-4849.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR. IS RESTED AND READY FOR SATURDAY'S PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY SPRINT CAR RACE

  (Chino, CA, September 15, 2022) After an unplanned break in the schedule and a quick, relaxing trip to Hawaii, Eddie Tafoya Jr. will return to the sprint car wars when the USAC/CRA Series visits Perris Auto Speedway for the Glenn Howard Memorial this Saturday night. The race will be the 18th of the year for the Chino Hills, California-based driver and his sixth at Perris. Tafoya last raced on August 20th on the same ½-mile clay oval he will be competing on this Saturday night. On that evening, he was the 9th fastest qualifier in the 21-car field. He backed that up with a second-place finish in his heat race. He then led the main event early on before eventually finishing fifth. That finish was Tafoya's sixth top-five finish in 14 main event starts in the series this year. It also stretched his streak of finishing eighth or better in the series to eight races dating back to April 2nd. PAS 8_20_22=51t=6326-3#0916.jpg Eddie Tafoya Jr. is fourth in the USAC/CRA standings headed into Saturday's race. Doug Allen photo. Since that last race, Tafoya and all the other series drivers were scheduled to race at the Bakersfield Speedway on September 3rd. However, blistering temperatures would have made conditions unsafe for fans, drivers, and crews. In addition, the extreme heat would have made it hard to keep the track racy and would have played havoc with tires. Tafoya, 25, the 2018 PAS Young Gun Champion and 2019 USAC/CRA and USAC Southwest Rookie of the Year, is still near the top of the season-long championship standings. Manning the fourth place spot for most of the season, he enters Saturday's show at Perris just 23-points out of third and 58-points out of second. Tafoya still has plenty of time to advance higher in the standings. Including Saturday's race at Perris, there are seven races left before the season ends on November 5th. After Saturday's race on the famous Riverside County half-mile clay oval, Tafoya will have a week off before returning to the same track on October 1st. The following week he will journey to the Mohave Valley Raceway, which is minutes away from the Colorado River and only about 20 miles from Laughlin on October 8th. On his first ever appearance at that track on April 23rd, Tafoya placed third in the main event. Tafoya will be back in Arizona to finish the month of October at the 55th Annual Western World at the Cocopah Speedway on October 28th and 29th. At the end of January, Tafoya kicked off his campaign with three straight nights of action on the track which is located near Yuma. After finishing seventh at the season opener and ninth the following night, Tafoya wrapped up that trip with a season-best second-place finish on January 29th. After Cocopah, he will wrap up his season the following week with three nights of action at the 26th Annual Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway. Adult tickets for Saturday are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over get in for $25.00. For kids 6 to 12, it is just $5.00. Children 5 and under are admitted free. There will be plenty of tickets available for everyone at the ticket window on Saturday, this event will not sell out.

  BRODY ROA ENJOYING A RELAXED SEASON IN 2022

  (Cypress, CA, September 15, 2022) When Southern California sprint car star Brody Roa released his 2022 racing schedule, it shocked many that he was running in a variety of different series and was not chasing championship points in any of them. As the season is about to hit the homestretch, Roa is completely happy with the decision and has absolutely no regrets. This Saturday night he will be competing in the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series at Perris Auto Speedway. PAS 8_20_22=91r=6322-3#BC08.jpg Brody Roa will be back at Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday. Doug Allen Photo. The story of Roa's racing the past few seasons has been with the USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series, USAC West Coast Sprint Cars, USAC National Sprint Cars when they headed west to end the season, and his annual trek to the Chili Bowl. To date this year he has raced the Chili Bowl, a few races in the USAC West Coast Series, the USAC National Series at Indiana Sprint Week, and periodic appearances with USAC/CRA. Additionally, he has raced with the World of Outlaws, ASCS/CAS Series in Arizona, King of Thunder winged 360s, and NARC King of the West 410s. With such a varied schedule, he has not had to think about the stress that comes along with point racing, and frankly, he is not missing it. "I am enjoying it, especially as it comes nearer to the end of the year," Roa said on Wednesday night. "I know the last few months, September, October, and November, are really stressful when you are point racing. You are counting points all night and you are trying to focus. It is always in the back of your head no matter what anybody says. You think about it. It is nice going into the end of this year not worrying about that. Going into the Ovals I will be focused on making good runs all three nights." "It has been our goal the last 10 years to run for that championship," Roa continued. "It is a different kind of fun I guess you could say. If we have a little off night, we are not worrying ourselves too much. We can move on to the next one. I have tried some things with the car this year that I probably would not have done (if they were chasing points). We have learned a lot this year and we have had a lot more fun. The tension level amongst the team is a little bit lower. It has been nice." The obvious question is if he has been having so much fun this year, is he going to do the same thing next year? One would think the clear answer would be "yes," he is going to stick with what he did in 2022. However, one must consider that the 31-year-old Garden Grove, California resident is a longtime successful racer with competitive juices that run deep. "I am not sure yet," Roa stated when asked if he would race for points in 2023. "It's a conversation I guess everybody has to have and decide what we want to do next year. I had fun with the wing deal this year, so I would like to do that occasionally. I want to run with Jayson (Jayson May who owns the #8M 360 sprint car Roa drives when available) more next year, too. When we get to the end of the year and schedules start coming out, we will all get together as a team with all of our partners, supporters, and families and see what we can and what we want to do next year." Roa's season will end a little over two months from now in the sprint car portion of the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Ventura. He has several races on his schedule including a stretch of five straight Saturdays of racing in three different series starting with this Saturday's USAC/CRA race at Perris. The rest of that stretch will include another USAC/CRA show at Perris, USAC Western Sprint Series races at Ventura and Kern County Raceway Park, and the NARC King of the West Twin 25's at Peter Murphy's Keller Auto Speedway. In addition to the October date at Keller, there may be one more wing race on his schedule in 2022. "We are going to put the wing back on a couple of times," Roa said. "Well, maybe a couple times. We only have one wing left. We have to get through the first one. We are going to do it once for sure. We will see about the second one and do whatever we feel at the end of October with the wing or non-wing." This Saturday Roa returns to Perris for his fourth wingless appearance at the track this year. His first three appearances on the famous Riverside County half-mile clay Oval in 2022 saw him finish in sixth place, third, and first. The win came on June 25th. The next time the series was at the track was on August 20th. To say the results were 180 degrees different would be an understatement. Between his heat race and getting clobbered and knocked out of the main on lap two, it seemed as though Roa was hit by everyone at the track except for the infield ambulance driver. "We still show up to run good, but having those nights hurts no matter what," Roa affirmed. "Whether it is points or just money. We rely a lot on the purse money to get the car ready again for the next one. When we have nights like that (August 20th) and we tear up everything in the trailer in like a total of 10 laps, it hurts the ego and the bank account. But it is definitely less stressful when I have a night like that this year as I am not worrying about a bad night points-wise." Roa is looking forward to this weekend in a big way. Not only will racing at Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday be on his agenda. On Sunday, Roa and his wife Tailor will be celebrating their daughter Addison's second birthday with family and friends. Adult tickets to see Roa and the rest of the stars in action on Saturday are $30.00. Seniors 65 and over get in for $25.00. For kids 6 to 12, it is just $5.00. Children 5 and under are admitted free.

Roa and the team want to thank the following sponsors for making the 2022 season possible. HD Industries, Burris Racing, Sander Engineering, Inland Rigging, Caltrol, "Biker" Bruce Fischer, Competition Suspension, ALR Virtual Services, K-1 Race Gear, Molecule, Rod End Supply, Driven Racing Oil, Baldwin Filters, and NGK Spark Plugs.
