Rob Kershaw & Bill Camarillo Start in Ventura's 1st Main Event of 2006

After a long awaited first race of the 2006 season, Rob Kershaw had a fun packed night. Rob raced the #26 Ford Focus Midget to 5th in the Main Event. He also pulled double duty by running in his #26 VRA Sprint Car. With all the stress and hard work of helping his two sons (Cody and Dakota) start their racing debut, Rob managed to win his heat race and transfer to the main event. Unfortunately, Rob was not able to avoid the parked car of #15 Trimble and was taken out early in the race. We know he had a top 5 car and would have finished well.

Bill Camarillo, who did not intend to even run this year, found his way into the main event. After starting 8th in his heat race, Bill managed to finish 3rd which earned him a 10th starting position in the main event. With a lot of luck and patiences and a great car set up by Wayne Pardini, Bill managed to finish 6th in the main event. Our best opening night finish ever.
