RYAN TIMMONS SCORES FIRST USAC/CRA WIN AT KERN COUNTY DEBUT

BAKERSFIELD, CA – MARCH 12, 2021… Holding off veteran Davey Ray, Ryan Timmons (Pleasant Hill, CA) earned his first career $3,000 AMSOIL USAC/CRA Sprint Car victory at The Dirt Track at Kern County Raceway Park (KCRP). Piloting the family owned #29 Timmons Auto & Truck Repair / Evergood Fine Foods CS9 with 360 power, the 2016 USAC West Coast Sprint Car Rookie of the Year won the Kern County debut over hard charger Ray, Chris Gansen (first podium), “The Big Game Hunter” Austin Williams, and “Chargin” Charles Davis Jr. Ray earned the night’s In Memory of Jim & Chet Gardner Hard Charger Award with a fifteenth to second place run. 

“The Demon” Damion Gardner scored his 92nd career Woodland Auto Display Fast Time Award by posting a new track record with a time of 14.104 over the 30-car roster. The 8-time champion scored twentieth in the main event after an early flip ended his night.

The 10-lap heat race victories went to Gardner (Flowdynamics / Factory Wraps First Heat), Troy Rutherford (Huntington Beach Glass & Mirror / Factory Wraps Second Heat), Austin Liggett (All Coast Construction / Factory Wraps Third Heat), and Max Adams (Component Repair Company / Factory Wraps Fourth Heat). Former Ascot veteran driver Verne Sweeney topped the 12-lap semi-main.

The traditional 410 sprints are back in action tomorrow night (March 13) at The Dirt Track at Kern County Raceway Park.
