Champion Racing Association will open its 2012 regular season with this weekend’s traditional season opening event for the ARCA/CRA Super Series Saturday night at Anderson Speedway.
The famous high-banked quarter mile racetrack located in Anderson, Indiana has hosted more Super Series events than any other track since the series’ first ever event on Saturday, April 26, 1997. Anderson Speedway has hosted a total of 50 series events to date. Former two time series champion Brian Ross is the all-time series victory leader at Anderson Speedway with nine victories.
The entry list to date of 30 cars for the Anderson 125 may have the most talented group of drivers the series has ever had for a season opener or for any regular series event. Several former Anderson series winners top that list including 1997 series Champion Kenny Tweedy who has four series victories at Anderson.
Also three time series Champion Scott Hantz and two time series Champion Johnny VanDoorn are entered, both have three series victories apiece at Anderson.
