The first endurance race of the CRA’s second endurance series will take place on Saturday afternoon. The JackAss Racing and Customs team of Mark Nelson and Jason Jenkins will be looking to start off their 2006 Endurance Series Championship off right by fending off the Jenspeed team of Shane Keaveny and Fraser Scheibe, two teams from Shockwave Racing, along with several others.
