EAST MEETS WEST SHOWDOWN AS WERA NATIONAL SERIES TRAVELS TO CALIFORNIA SPEEDWAY

FONTANA, Calif.- Round four of the WERA National Challenge Series and the Dunlop/WERA National Endurance Series presented by roadracingworld.com will be a showdown between racers from the East and the West coast at California Speedway, June 11-13.

A high turnout of local racers is expected for the event, which will feature the Dunlop/WERA six-hour endurance race on Saturday, June 12, and 16 National Challenge and Sportsman Series sprint races on Sunday, June 13.

For the first three rounds of the season, the competition has been comprised primarily of racers from the eastern United States. As the series heads west, the series regulars will face a challenge from the local racers in California, who are already familiar with California Speedway’s challenging 2.8-mile road course.

After a practice day on Friday, June 11, the endurance race will get underway on Saturday at 11:30 a.m. Vesrah Suzuki has won two rounds this
year, but they still trail behind Army of Darkness in the championship. With the additional teams that will be on the grid, all five classes in the endurance race will have new competition.

On Sunday, the National Challenge and Sportsman Series eight-lap sprint races will start at noon. The Sportsman Series races will be awarding points for the new WERA West region.

“The WERA National Series hasn’t traveled out west for a couple of years,” commented WERA owner Evelyne Clarke. “We have the only amateur series that spans the entire United States, and we’re excited that the racers in our WERA West region can participate in a National event with us.”

Tickets for the WERA National Series presented by roadracingworld.com will be available at the gate.
