JOHNSON HOPES TO EXTEND SW STREAK AT CASA GRANDE SATURDAY
R.J. Johnson of Phoenix, Ariz. will try for a sixth consecutive USAC Southwest Sprint Car points victory Saturday when the series makes its only 2014 stop at Central Arizona Raceway in Casa Grande.
A victory Saturday would tie the all-time record for consecutive single-season USAC Sprint wins at six. Larry Dickson set the mark in the USAC National series in 1968!
Johnson enjoys a comfortable 131-point lead over runner-up Josh Pelkey, but Pelkey's margin over third-place driver Charles Davis Jr. stands at just four points.
2014 USAC Southwest Sprint Car Standings: 1-R.J. Johnson-1,029, 2-Josh Pelkey-898, 3-Charles Davis Jr.-894, 4-Shon Deskins-843, 5-Matt Rossi-786, 6-Mike Martin-756, 7-Tye Mihocko-749, 8-Nick Aiuto-570, 9-Andy Reinbold-559, 10-Michael Curtis-540.
