RJ Johnson Sets Out to Earn His Wings
Kevin Montgomery Tucson, Arizona (March 18th, 2010) – Still dealing with the heart ache of last weeks Canyon Region opener where victory slipped through his grasp due to a last lap pass by Dave Darland, RJ Johnson will attempt to ease his pain as he returns to USA Raceway for the ASCS Southwest Region Wing opener.
While Johnson will still be considered virgin to the wing ranks, he did have a one successful outing in 2009 that earned him a 6th place finish in his first ever attempt with a lid on. This time he will be aboard the familiar Bobby Martin owned Weiler Farms/Arizona Race Mart/Proflyer powered Maxim!
Johnson will join Rick Ziehl, Mike Martin and Ronnie Clark as they all are expected to bolt on the wing for this weekends show.
USA Raceway will continue the trend of an action packed opening month as the 2010 debut of the ASCS Southwest Region takes off this weekend. March 27th will mark the return of the Barnett Harley Davidson UMP West Modifieds as the championship season goes into full swing.
