Jason Bowles has this track figured out. I have attended this track for
five years and he is the most dominant driver I have seen at the track.
In the last 3 races, he has 3 wins, 3 poles, never run lower than 2nd,
led 406 of 600 laps, and only been passed for the lead twice in the last
3 races. Brian Wong tore the whole rear end off his car on a spin down
the front stretch.

This was the smallest individual race purse for a West series race in 13
years, since 1996 at Madera. The East and West series moved to pay out a
greater percentage of prize winnings as part of the year-end fund
instead of the "full" amount each race for 2009, and with motorsports
being one of the many industries hit hard by poor economic conditions of
the time the series' health took a turn for the worst. The West series
saw four races with car counts in the teens for the first time since the
1997 season. The East series promptly saw its lowest number of starters
in a race since 1989, 20 years prior. Both divisions found themselves in
holes that they really haven't dug out of since.
