Westphal Sweeps Weekend

ROSAMOND, Calif. — Jeff Westphal had a point to prove when the Pacific F2000 Championship Presented by Hankook Tires visited historic Willow Springs Int’l Raceway this past weekend.

After an electrical gremlin robbed him of a potential clean sweep in the season opener at Auto Club Speedway last month, the 21-year-old bounced back to score a maximum 68 points – two poles, two race wins and two fastest race laps – in rounds three and four.

“We had a strong car right off the truck and just put our heads down and went session to session,” said  Westphal, “and fortunately we came out on top.”

Westphal posted a new lap record at an average speed of 115.045 miles per hour in qualifying on Saturday, . His No. 39 Cacci Construction/TNT Demolition/PR1 Motorsports Van Diemen was never headed during the 17-lap race. Robert Podlesni and Shaun Modisette completed the podium for Saturday’s race.

On Sunday, it was much of the same story with Westphal chased by Podlesni in second. Nicky Freytag finished third.
