WHAT TO WATCH FOR:

Napa150 Logo 2022With Love not competing at Irwindale this year, the window is wide open for a new face to visit Victory Lane this weekend.

Headlining the entry list for Saturday’s race is defacto West Series championship leader Jake Drew. The driver of the No. 6 Stilo USA-Offset Sport Ford for Bob Bruncati finished fifth in the ARCA Menards Series combination race at Phoenix Raceway on March 11 and was the highest West Series regular in the final running order.

Drew finished fourth and second in the two races at Irwindale last season. He’ll look to do one position better Saturday night.

Bill McAnally Racing will bring two cars to Irwindale, with Cole Moore and Austin Herzog aiming to give team owner Bill McAnally his first victory of the young season. Moore also raced at Irwindale last year with a best finish of fifth. This will be Herzog’s debut at Irwindale in West Series competition.

Other drivers with Irwindale experience on the entry list include Joey Iest, who scored a third-place finish at the facility last year. P.J. Pedroncelli also has a third-place finish at Irwindale on his résumé. Both drivers could be in contention to win Saturday night if the cards fall their way.

Other regular West Series competitors expected to compete are Bridget Burgess, Todd Souza and Takuma Koga.

Several other drivers will be making their Irwindale debuts Saturday night. They include Sunrise Ford Racing rookie Tanner Reif, Stafford Smith, Chris Lowden, Tim Spurgeon, Andrew Tuttle and Kyle Keller.
