Western Majors Action at Pacific Raceways

A Baker's Dozen Mazda victories are earned over two days of Memorial Day weekend racing in Washington.

Rounds Nine and 10 of the SCCA Western Conference U.S. Majors Tour were contested at Pacific Raceways on Sunday and Monday over the three-day Memorial Day weekend. Drivers representing 24 Runoffs-eligible classes took to the 10-turn, 2.25-mile circuit to run their 25-minute sprint races on Saturday and 20-lap races on Sunday. The sprint races were originally scheduled to last only 20 minutes, but a run group consolidation allowed each race to run an additional five minutes in length. The Saturday B-Spec battle, won by Eric Boucher, of Auburn, Calif., stole the show in the first group. In his No. 35 The Wife Mazda2, Boucher took the 0.481-second win over Derrick Ambrose. While Ambrose still holds a significant lead in the Conference standings, Boucher is still pushing hard to close the gap. Boucher repeated the feat on Sunday for the double victory.
