ASCS / Wesmar Challenge Leader Board

 

 

Lonnie Wheatley, TULSA, Okla. (August 29, 2007) – Just three weekends of racing action remain for American Sprint Car Series competitors to earn points towards the ASCS / Wesmar Challenge, which will take place during the Devil's Bowl Winter Nationals in Mesquite, TX, on October 13.

 

 

 

Drivers ranking among the top two in each Region's ASCS / Wesmar Challenge points along with the top O'Reilly ASCoT National contenders at the September 15 deadline will earn invitations to the unique event, in which one lucky driver will come away with a new, ASCS-legal Wesmar Racing Engine.

 

 

 

The ASCS / Wesmar Challenge will be run in multiple segments, with an inversion in place after the opening segment. Passing and finishing points will be in effect for each segment, with the top points earner winning a new Wesmar Racing Engine.

 

 

 

Drivers earn points towards the Wesmar Racing Engines Challenge by earning three points for a feature win, two points for a runner-up finish and one point for each third-place feature finish. A driver must compete in at least 60% of a respective Region's events and be a registered member of the American Sprint Car Series to represent that Region in the ASCS / Wesmar Racing Engines Challenge.

 

 

 

Thus far in 2007, 60 different drivers have reached ASCS victory lane on at least one occasion in the 125 winged ASCS features throughout the country.

 

 

 

A total of 694 different drivers have competed in at least one of the 125 winged ASCS events through August 26, with the wingless Canyon Region drivers bumping the total to 749.
