Hollywood Herrera Stars in ASCS Southwest Go at USA!
Lonnie Wheatley, TUCSON, Ariz. (April 3, 2010) –
Johnny Herrera
dropped in on the ASCS Southwest Region at USA Raceway on Saturday
night with familiar results by racing to victory lane in the
evening’s nightcap.

While two-time and defending series champion Rick Ziehl set the
early pace, Herrera took command following a restart and charged to
the checkered flag unabated for the sixth time in as many ASCS
Southwest starts over the past two seasons.
The Albuquerque racer was chased to the line by Las Cruces shoe
Ziehl, with El Paso’s John Carney II climbing from eighth to take
the show position.
Fifteen-year-old Joshua Hodges was fourth, with Calvin Landis
rounding out the top five.
John Gaston crossed the stripe sixth, while R.J. Johnson turned in
the night’s top passing performance by racing from 17th
to seventh after winning the “B” Main. |
