ROSEVILLE, California — 19-year old Michael Self won his second consecutive NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Late Model race at All American Speedway on Saturday, but not without a fight.
"It was a fun race,"— Jonathan Mawhinney
Self battled it out with No. 29 Jason Fensler for a good part of the race with some exhilarating side-by-side racing.
Self is also racing in the K&N Pro Series where he posted a top ten finish in Phoenix on April 8.
"We had one of the best cars out here again tonight," Self said. "It was awesome run for the Rockwell Timekeepers Motorway Motorsports Chevy. The last two weekends this car has been unstoppable. "
The win marked Self's third career stock car win since transitioning from karting to stock cars in 2008.
For the second week in a row No. 17 Jonathan Mawhinney posted a second place finish to Self. "It was a fun race," Mawhinney said. "The car was good. It was a little tight on the first four laps of the restart, but overall it was a good clean race."
No. 29 Jason Fensler came in third, No. 27 John Moore fourth, and No. 20 Bobby Grewohl rounded out the top five.
In Modified racing No. 24 Scott Winters ran away from the field and never looked back. "This Ferrari Kramer race team is just really strong. We've got a lot of depth, we've got a great crew chief Ron Austerero, the motor builder Don Kramer does a great job and the owner provides us with all the things we need to get up front," Winters said.
Winters is the 2007 and 2008 Modified champion at All American Speedway.
In Bomber racing No. 24 Cody Rickard picked up his first Bomber win and he was excited. "It was fun. I've been out here five years trying to win and I finally got one. I've had a lot of bad luck over the years and finally it all paid off. It feels really good."
2008 Street Stock champion Mickey Owens showed everyone who was boss by running away with the Street Stock race. He clearly was in control, but did have some great competition and great side-by-side racing with the 2009 Street Stock champion No. 50 Chris Lambert.
NASCAR Whelen championship series racing returns to All American Speedway on April 24. Coming up April 17 at All American Speedway will be USA Sprints, Legends and Vintage cars with high car counts in all divisions. For more info go to: www.allamericanspeedway.com
