~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PRESS RELEASE March 5, 2010 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For Immediate Release Contact: Kevin Ramsell,ASA Public Relations Director (kramsell@asa-racing.com [mailto:racingpr@me.com]) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HAVASU 95 SPEEDWAY IS ROLLING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AS AN ASA MEMBER TRACK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ American Speed Association PR DAYTONA BEACH, FL (Friday, March 5, 2010) - When you talk to Bill Rozhon, Promoter of Havasu 95 Speedway, an ASA Member Track in Lake Havasu City, AZ, you will find someone who is proud of what they have accomplished in four years of operation of the 1/4-mile track. Including a great relationship with the city. "The city has embraced the track and is very supportive," Rozhon exclaimed. "The track is located at the SARA (Special Activities and Recreation Area) Park which is about 1,100 acres that includes the Raceway, softball and baseball fields, hiking trails, BMX track, dog park, and a shooting range. It's in a great area and is truly a sports lovers paradise." With the hot weather they have in the summer, Havasu 95 Speedway runs their season from September to May. This year, the weather has been unusual which has helped and hurt the track, "The weather has hurt us the last few weeks and it has kept some of the fans away but we are doing pretty well," Rozhon said. "Our car count has been doing very well and the racing has been great." Their Saturday night racing program varies from week to week where you could find Late Models, Street Stock, Bandoleros, Modifieds, Factory Stocks, and Powder Puffs racing. Rozhon keeps a close eye on the late models when they compete, "My 16-year-old granddaughter, Shelby Orozco, does a lot of our press releases and flyers. But she is racing in our Late Model model division," Rozhon said. "I also have my 13-year-old grandson, Jeremy Orozco running in the bandoleros. So this is truly a family sport." Shelby is currently fourth in points while Jeremy is sixth in bandoleros. The hot shoe at Havasu is veteran driver Ralph Adams who goes out and typically beats other drivers half his age, "He is still winning races and the funny thing is that he offers advice to our young drivers and I don't think they listen to him because he still goes out and beats them," Rozhon said with a chuckle. Rozhon also is happy to work with ASA, "We have a great relationship with ASA. Dennis (Huth, ASA President) has been a great asset to us," he said. "Anytime we have a question, Dennis always puts whatever he is doing aside to listen and help us. This is our fourth year of running Havasu and his help has been valuable. I have been telling other tracks to talk to ASA, it's the best thing for short tracks." "Havasu 95 Speedway is located in a beautiful area and it has gained a great fan support, as they make it a weekly ritual to go there," Dennis Huth, ASA President said. "It is a happening place with the awesome racing action. They provide the finest racing entertainment to the fans who live in the area and the snowbirds who sneak away from the North in the winter. We are proud to have them as an ASA Member Track." Havasu is getting ready for its Third Annual Western Winter Nationals on March 19 & 20. The two days of racing will feature Legends, Bandoleros and Factory Stocks on Friday while Saturday will feature USAC Ford Focus Midgets, Legends, Factory Stocks and Bandoleros.
