​WERA West: Aussie Dave Racing Dominates At Auto Club Speedway

© 2017, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc.

Fresh from the MotoAmerica pre-season tests at the Circuit Of The Americas, Aussie Dave Racing (ADR) took all the big-bore wins at the WERA West Sportsman Series Presented by Lucas Oil Products round at Auto Club Speedway on April 9.

Cameron Petersen started the day for the team with a win in the A Superstock race, leading home David “Aussie Dave” Anthony by 0.186 seconds on their Dunlop-shod, Fly Street/Motul/ADR Kawasaki ZX-10Rs. Petersen’s best time was a 1:28.456, edging his team owner’s 1:28.714, but a full second ahead of third-place finisher MotoAmerica and AMA Pro Road Racing competitor Sebastio Ferreira’s best of 1:29.471 on his OmegaMob-backed, Pirelli-shod Yamaha YZF-R1.

Anthony took the Formula One win over Petersen by a clean 2.452 seconds, with Justin Simons taking third on his Pirelli-shod, NextLevelCycles Kawasaki ZX-10R for his first career Formula One Expert podium.

Anthony completed the day with a win in the A Superbike race, lowering his best time to a 1:27.623, with Petersen 0.764 seconds back. Petersen also dropped into the 1:27 range, turning a 1:27.766 on his way to his third podium finish of the day. Christopher Carron bounced back from a DNF in the A Superstock race to take a fourth in the Formula One race and to take the final podium spot in A Superbike on his Kawasaki ZX-10R.
