Fast Friday | 2018 ULTRA4 Season Finale
Wild West Showdown
JP Gomez was declared the winner of the final showdown in the 2018 ULTRA4 season, but not without lots of excitement along the way.
This is from a race report from ULTRA4 Racing…
More than 130 teams from across the country took to the track in front of a sold-out crowd for the fifth annual 4 Wheel Parts Nitto Nationals race held at Wild West Motorsports Park in Sparks, Nevada.
Fifty-three ULTRA4 4400 class drivers were narrowed down through multiple prelims and a last-chance qualifier to a field of 28 in the main event. As the dust settled in the rock-racing amphitheater, it was JP Gomez who took the checkered flag for his second ULTRA4 race win in a row, followed by Nick Nelson in a spectacular second-place finish that had him crossing the finish line in reverse, and third place went to Mike Bergman for his first podium in ULTRA4.
In the Can-Am 4900 UTV class, James Cantrell took the win, followed by National Champion Jacob Versey in second and Travis Zollinger in third.
