FRAZIER PARK, Calif. (Wednesday, May 20, 2009, 1:45 p.m.)—Michael K. Kanke of Frazier Park leads the pack entering the “Performance Electrical 110” at Madera Speedway, Saturday, May 23 at 5:30 p.m. It is the third event of the 2009 SRL Southwest Tour Series championship season. Kanke has 106 points after winning the first two SRL events of 2009 at Roseville and Las Vegas.

“There are 10 races in the series,” Kanke explained Tuesday, May 19. “You can’t win them all, that’s why they call ‘em ‘races,’” he laughed. —PH
