The 2006 Hoosier Tire West Championship Belongs to Jason Patison

Jason Patison clinched the ASA Hoosier Tire West Modified Series Championship at the Havasu 95 Speedway on November 27, 2006. The points leader was sitting on top of the standings as he entered the last race of the year. Patison had a 10 point lead and needed to finish 5th or better to wrap up the championship.

After winning the trophy dash at Havasu, Patison raced against 23 other cars for the 50-lap main event. The first 5 laps of the low-banked 3/8 mile oval track were a side-by-side run for the lead between Patison and Dean Kuhn. Patison eventually completed a pass around the outside and never let go of the lead.

Patison drives a modified open wheel which is 2500 lbs and 550 hp. “The horsepower to weight ratio is powerful,” he said. “It was really great to win this championship.”
