18th Annual BUDWEISER OVAL NATIONALS | Perris Auto Speedway | Perris, CA

Thursday - "USAC Grudge Series" USAC Western Sprint Car Series VS USAC Southwest Sprint Car Series.

Last night was the 360 part of the 3 days of the Budweiser Oval Nationals with the ‘Grudge Series’, where 36 of the nation’s best sprint drivers and teams put it all out on the track. It was an exciting night of racing!
Stanbrough and JFMJon Stanbrough and the dialed in JFM King Racing Products / A&A Precision CNC Machine / Berry Pack #73 put in a time of 16.902 for 4th fast to get the evening started. A bit of bad luck on Stanbrough’s heat race, where Jon got into Bruce St. James coming around turn 2 on the third lap and flattened his right front tire. This put him in the back where he stayed for the Heat 4. Stanbrough started on the pole and easily stayed out front through the 10 lap semi, taking the checkered and winning it.

The Feature for the 1st round of the 2013 Budweiser Oval Nationals, Stanbrough started on the inside of the 9th row, 17th. Coming from the back, Jon quickly powered his way up to 12th/13th where we had some yellows around the 3rd through 5th laps. By the 10th lap of the 30 lap feature, Stanbrough was running 9th where he traded the 8th and 9th positions all the way through to the long yellow of the 27th lap where several cars got tangled in turn 1… should have been a red. On the restart, Jon was running 8th and surged to 6th. With 1 lap to go, Clauson taking hold of the race but got up on the rubber and spun into the wall on 3/4 just as Stanbrough was charging 5th and even 4th as they threw the yellow. The race ended there on the 29th lap and they gave Stanbrough 5th. Jon did get the Hard Charger for the 17th – 5th.

Qualified – 4th
Heat 4 – NT (6th)
Semi – WINS (1st)
Feature – 5th (17th)

Tonight we are still here in Perris where the perfect 72 degree is agreeable with JFM and fans alike. This will be the USAC National & CRA Sprint Cars. For the next 2 days we will have Stanbrough wheeling the 410 #73. Excited to get out there and put it all on the track!!

Josh Ford Motorsports has decided not to participate in the winged portion of the Trophy Cup in Tulare.

Evaluating the #73 car after Mitchell flipped leading the 40 lap Main 2, there is too much damage to repair in time for tonight’s and tomorrow night’s race at the Thunderbowl.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause with plans you may have made.
