Dylan Kwasniewski came into this race with a 2-point lead over his
teammate Greg Pursley and finishes four positions in front of him to ice
the 2012 K&N West series title. It's the first championship for
Kwasniewski as Pursley comes up six points short of back-to-back crowns.

Michael Self leads flag-to-flag to claim his first real West series
victory on an oval. Self earned the West win earlier in the year at Iowa
Speedway in the combination race but East Series driver Corey LaJoie won
that event overall.

I think Kwasniewski is a name to keep an eye out for in the next couple
of years in either Nationwide or the Truck Series. He turns 18 next May
and his K&N West results have been very impressive. He's run essentially
2 full seasons in the West series and he's racked up 20 top 5's and 24
top 10 finishes in 28 starts. Impressive numbers for somebody who's 17
years old.

To put all the effort into a fifty lap race... seems sort of pointless.

Congrats to Dylan. Hopefully he will break the mold of young drivers
moving up the ranks with no open seats at the top.

It's 100 miles. For a series that only runs two races on oval tracks
one-mile or bigger, fifty laps is more than acceptable. I've seen
similar cars run on tracks of similar size to Phoenix much more than
fifth laps and it was awful.

Cale Conley makes his NASCAR West debut, wins the pole, and finishes in
the top-5. To date it's still his lone start in the series.
