ASA Tours, ASA Member Tracks Schedule For August 8-11, 2013
DAYTONA BEACH, FL (August 8, 2013) – The ASA OK Tire Sportsman Series presented by Advance Testing, ASA Pro Trucks and a host of ASA Member Tracks headline ASA racing action around the country this weekend.
This weekend is the fifth and penultimate race on the 2013 ASA OK Tire Sportsman Series presented by Advanced Testing in year one of the merged British Columbia-based sportsman series. The series visits Agassiz Speedway, a quarter-mile paved oval in Agassiz, BC on August 10 with competitors battling for the $12,000 purse.
Korbin Thomas enters the weekend atop the championship point standings and is the winner of one previous race this season. Matt Stephenson, who won the season’s first two events is second in the point standings followed by Logan Jewel, Ian Graham and Dave Olson, who won the series last outing in Quesnel.
For the second consecutive year the ASA Pro Trucks are part of the Clash of the Titans at ASA sanctioned Rocky Mountain Raceways in West Valley City, UT.
The ASA Pro Trucks and Monster Trucks are teaming up for a two-day (Aug. 10-11) show with Sharp Transportation presenting the truck portion of the weekend.
Drew Reitsma enters the weekend as the favorite coming off a commanding win in at Magic Valley Speedway last month. The “Iron Man” completed every lap of the 2012 season only to see his streak snapped after being collected by a lapped truck while fighting for the lead in the 2013 season opener.
Reitsma enters Rocky Mountain Raceways sitting third in the season standings.
Hannah Newhouse leads the points coming into the event and will have local favorite Mark Ith Jr. wheeling her truck on Saturday while planning to compete on Sunday.
Johnny Pierre hopes to turn his luck around after leading the point standings for most of the season. Pierre found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time early in the Magic Valley race finishing 41 laps behind with a heavily damaged truck.
Defending ASA Pro Trucks champion Scott Luttmer sits fourth in the standings but with other commitments Sunday he is currently not scheduled to run on Sunday. That just might be the break Alan Larson is looking for. Larson will be hauling not one but four trucks to Rocky Mountain Raceways.
The ASA-sanctioned ProAutoSports visits Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, CA this weekend offering two days of track time on August 10-11, the weekend is hosted by Speed Ventures.
