For Immediate Release

AUGUST 15TH USAC/CRA HEAT RACES AT PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY PAY BIG MONEY!

(Perris, CA, August 5, 2015) When the Amsoil USAC/CRA Sprint Cars return to Perris Auto Speedway for the “California Racer’s Hall of Fame Night” on August 15th, it will be like Christmas in August for the competing teams and drivers. Thus far nearly $7,500.00 in extra money has been added to the normal purse.

The latest infusion of cold hard cash was revealed when longtime PAS infield announcer Chris Holt spoke with Dave Stall on the San Diego Motorsports Radio Show on Sunday night. Mark Atchison and his company, AMA Plastics, is putting up some crazy money for the winners of the USAC/CRA heat race according to Holt. If there are four heat races on the night, the winner of each 10-lapper will pocket a cool $250.00. If there are three heats, the winner of each will get $300.00.

“Normally in the heat races guys are just racing to get into the top four spots so they can get into the main event,” promoter Don Kazarian said. “If they get a win in a heat race on a normal night, they get a pat on the back from their crew when they get back to the pits. $250.00 - $300.00 to win a heat race on August 15th? Those are fighting words and these guys are going to go all out to not only transfer, but to collect that money for the win.”

The heat race money is just one part of the extra booty being dumped into the purse on the night. In addition to the $100.00 the fast qualifier gets from the Woodland Auto Display at every USAC/CRA race, the quick timer on the 15th will earn an extra $500.00 from the family of two-time CRA Champion Billy Wilkerson.

After qualifying, Junior Kurtz and Bill Simpson have put up $2,000.00 for an old school winner take all four-car, four-lap trophy dash. Also, as this piece went to press, there is nearly $4,000.00 up for grabs in main event lap money. All of this money is on top of the normal USAC/CRA purse.

In addition to the racing, many of the sport’s top drivers from the past will be signing autographs and posing for photos with the fans in the track’s sports bar before the races begin.

As well as the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars, The PAS Senior & Young Gun Sprint Cars and the California Lightning Sprint Cars will also be on the quadruple header program. Spectator gates will open at 5:00 PM with racing at 7:00.

Adult reserved tickets are $25.00. Seniors 65 and older get in for $20.00. For active military members with proper id, teens 13-18 with their school id and kids 6-12 it is just $5.00. Children 5 and under get in for free.

Camping is available for $25.00 per night for all PAS events. The campground opens at noon the day before each event. Tailgating in the spectator parking lot will begin at 1:00 PM for all PAS events as well.
