Gary Wright Leads The Challenge Points In The National Ranks



With 17 of 238 scheduled events for the 2007 American Sprint Car Series season in the books, it’s time for a quick look at the ASCS / Wesmar Challenge Leader Board.

Gary Wright leads the Challenge points in the National ranks, with Regional leaders including Michael Dupuy and Marshall Skinner (Coastal), Jason Johnson (Gulf South), Chuck Swenson (Midwest and Northern Plains), Wade Oliver and Marshall Skinner (Rebel) and Kevin Ramey (Sooner).

The top two drivers in ASCS / Wesmar Challenge points for the National Tour and each of the eleven winged Regions at the September 15 cutoff date will earn invitations to the October 13 ASCS / Wesmar Challenge at the Devil’s Bowl Speedway Winter Nationals in Mesquite, TX.

The ASCS / Wesmar Challenge will be run in two 15-lap segments, with an inversion following the first segment. Passing and finishing points will be in effect for both segments, with the top points earner coming away with 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.
