SPENCER RESUMES CHASE OF KRUSEMAN WHEN CRA SPRINTS RETURN TO THE PAS SATURDAY
APRIL 21, 2008 --- Mike Spencer of Temecula, Calif. continues his pursuit of his initial USAC championship Saturday when the USAC/CRA Sprint cars return to Perris (Calif.) Auto Speedway. He trails former series champion and 2008 point leader Cory Kruseman by 42 points.
It’s “Power of Purple Night” at the 1/2-mile dirt track, saluting the American Cancer Society and a 30-lap feature is on tap.
Spencer is one of five drives who have already posted feature wins at the PAS this year. The others are Kruseman (twice), Danny Sheridan and Johnny Rodriguez, who piloted a new car to victory in his first outing two weeks ago.
Blake Miller, who has a 2008 win but not at Perris, ranks third in the standings, 82 behind Kruseman.
