Note: Officially it's the first race of the series under the new name:
the NASCAR Grand National WEST Series. The first 9 races of the season
were run under the name NASCAR Pacific Coast Late Model Series. But
actually for technical reasons we can not divide the season into two
different names in the database of the website.

This was a willingness on the NASCAR to standardized the names of the
different series. It was decided to name the PCLM in NASCAR West Series
(also called NASCAR Western Grand National). Moreover it coincides with
the requirement by NASCAR to have radio communication between the race
director and all drivers. The beginnings of the modern era of the West
Series (1971-...)
