WILD WEST SHOOTOUT
RESULTS FROM USA RACEWAY
(January
22, 2012) The Chris Simpson Racing team saved
their best 'Wild West Shootout' performance for last, as they
notched a solid top ten in the $10,000 to win 'Bill Cheesbourg
Memorial' earlier today. Chris Simpson ran fifth in heat race
action, but later won his B-Main to transfer into the 40-lap
feature event. After starting fifteenth on the grid in the
'Wild West Shootout' finale, Chris blew past eight competitors
en route to a seventh place effort at the USA (AZ) Raceway!

Round five of the annual 'Wild West Shootout' took place earlier
today at the USA (AZ) Raceway and another $3,000 top prize
was on the line. Unfortunately, track conditions provided
little passing all day and Chris Simpson wound up posting
a seventh place finish in his heat race and a twelfth place
effort in his consolation event. The Oxford, Iowa native was
forced to watch the 30-lapper from the grandstand, but will
look for better luck in tomorrow's $10,000 to win 'Wild West
Shootout' finale!
