Jonathon Gomez Scores First Career SRL Triumph At Stockton
Dominating Performance Puts 27-year old in Championship Hunt

TWIN FALLS, IDAHO (June 14, 2010) Jonathon Gomez, a 27-year old from
Twin Falls, Idaho dominated the action this past Saturday night at
Stockton (CA) Speedway starting on the pole and leading all 130-laps en
route to his first career SPEARS SRL Southwest Tour Series victory. The
victory moved Gomez up to fourth place in the point standings just
49-points out of the lead.

The Mid Valley Iron and Metals "130" had more than 25 cars on hand
vying for 21 starting positions in the 130-lap contest. Qualifying at
Stockton is one of the biggest challenges as the track is uniquely
shaped on both ends testing the driver's and teams. Gomez qualified
sixth for the feature race but but when quick qualifier Eric Holmes drew
a six invert, it put Gomez on the pole to start the race.

Armed with lessons learned from the previous three series events this
season, Gomez started the race with one thing in mind and that was avoid
on track incidents. Stockton Speedway is a track where you must drive
aggressively in order to set the pace but also be defensive as you will
be racing in lapped traffic throughout the entire race.

On this night Gomez had one key advantage that he had been missing all
season. He started out front and he took control of the race from the
onset hitting his marks every lap and holding off each challenge for the
lead. Over the closing laps he waged a spirited battle with three-time
series champion Jim Pettit II but kept the multi-time champion at bay
each time he edged closer.

"There is no doubt this is a huge win for our team," Gomez said. "When
we set out this season it was all about winning and this is the first of
what I hope are many more wins. I was a little nervous about the race
having never been to Stockton before but I can tell you this is one fun
track to drive and it is certainly one of my favorites."

Gomez is currently 4th in the SRL standings just 27-points out of third
place and closed the gap to within 49-points out of first place. He has
two top five and three top ten finishes in four starts this season. The
next event on the SRL schedule is Saturday, June 26 at Madera (CA)
Speedway, another track he has never competed at before.

Jonathon Gomez is in his fourth year of competitive racing having won
local track titles at Magic Valley Speedway in Twin Falls and competed
in various Late Model events the past couple of seasons. He has started
twelve NASCAR K&N Pro Series races since 2008 scoring seven top ten
finishes and currently sits fourth in the championship standings. Gomez
will contend for championships in both the NASCAR K&N Pro Series and the
SPEARS SRL Southwest Tour this season.

Jonathon Gomez is supported by Heritage Cattle Company, Century
Boatland, J&C Custom Harvesting, United Oil, Modern Machinery, DJ
Safety, and Gomez Farms. The next NASCAR K&N Pro Series event for
Gomez will be at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, CA June 19. The next event
on the SRL schedule is June 26 at Madera (CA) Speedway. For more
