ASHLEY UTTS READY FOR RACING RETURN AT VENTURA MAY 1PONY STOCK @ VENTURA RACEWAY
Source: Elder/Utts Racing
The 17-year-old is a junior and an honor student at Oaks Christian High School. She is also a varsity volleyball player at Oaks Christian and plays club volleyball during the off-season. She was recently the subject of a feature story in the Los Angeles Daily News. “Volleyball and racing are very different sports,” Utts said. “But they have some things in common. Preparation is real important before a match or a race and experience means a lot, too.” Utts’ car is prepared by veteran driver Charles Utts, her father, and award-winning mechanic Kristen Utts, Ashley’s mother. Ashley Utts begins the May 1 event 18th in points after a disappointing 18th-place finish on April 24. Her competition that night was curtailed by a lap-three collision that resulted in a flat tire that was not repaired in time to resume racing.
Utts drives the Custom Printing-sponsored Ford Mustang. She represents the
third generation in her family to drive a racecar, following her grandfather
and both parents. Utts Racing has a total of 50 main event victories scored
at racetracks around the Southwestern states. See Also .: News Index | E-mail to a Friend Article posted by RacingWest.com staff on 04/27/2004. http://www.racingwest.com
