Jason Patison Encouraged Despite Disappointing Finish |
| Jason Patison and his #17 NASCAR West Team traveled to Altamont for the 200 lap series finale. This was the first time Jason had been to the track and was only his second NASCAR West event. “Going into this race I was just hoping to qualify in the front half and keep the car in one piece,” Jason explained during a pre-race interview. Out of the box Jason and the #17 were a bit off the pace, posting 25th quick time out of 33 entrants during the 1st practice session. After several adjustments by crew chief Steve Teets and several adjustments to his line, Jason and the team improved by half a second, posting 16th quick in practice number 2. |

Jason Patison Wins his 3rd Series Race of 2007 |
The day didn’t start out the way he had planned but it ended up great for Jason Patison and team. After qualifying 4th out of 27 entrants, Jason lined up for the trophy dash, inside of Joey Mogar in the second row. Patison and Mogar battled side by side but as they headed down the front straight away on lap 2, sparks started trailing out of the back of Patison’s car. Unfortunately Jason didn’t realize he had a problem until he entered turn one and the car violently shot up the track and collected the number 5 of Mogar. The wreck only caused cosmetic damage to Mogar’s ride but severely crippled the right front of Patison’s.

After having to switch out an expired fuel cell and some other minor changes to get the car through tech, Jason made it out for the last half of the final practice session and only had a few laps to get a feel for qualifying. Luckily the #17 had tested the previous week so they decided to revert back to that set-up for their qualifying effort. |
