CHASE JOHNSON GETS 1ST USAC MIDGET WIN AT VENTURA

VENTURA, CA – OCTOBER 26, 2019… Taking advantage of slower traffic, Chase Johnson (Penngrove, CA) earned his first USAC Western States Midget win at Ventura Raceway. Racing Tom Malloy’s #25 Trench Shoring / Ed Pink Racing Engines King, Johnson slipped by Ben Worth on lap 13 and led the rest of the way to become the fifth first time winner in nine races. Worth, fast qualifier Cory Elliott, Shannon McQueen, and Josh Lakatos rounded out the top-five drivers.

Kyle Beilman earned the night’s Saldana Racing Products Hard Charger Award / Best Passing Job honors with a tenth place run from eighteenth. Randi Pankratz claimed her second Wilwood Disc Brakes “Lucky 13 Award” with a thirteenth place finish in the main event.

Elliott posted his second Woodland Auto Display Fast Time Award of the year with a time of 13.112 over the 20-car roster.

The ten-lap heat race victories went to Johnson (Extreme Mufflers First Heat), point leader Robert Dalby (Brown & Miller Racing Solutions Second Heat), and Lakatos (Competition Suspension Inc. / Ultra Shield Race Products Third Heat).

The USAC Western States Midgets will battle the NOS Energy Drink USAC National Midgets at the November 15th and 16th “52nd Annual Western World Championships” at Arizona Speedway. The AMSOIL USAC National, USAC/CRA, and Sands Chevrolet USAC SouthWest Sprint Cars will join the action packed card at San Tan Valley, Arizona.
