NASA Pro Series Points Leader Combats Weather at Buttonwillow
NASA Pro Series Points Leader Combats Weather at Buttonwillow
1 May 2007
Derrick Malcolm was fast and competitive all weekend at Buttonwillow Raceway
Park near Bakersfield, California. He took the class win in the NASA (National Auto Sport Association) Performance
Touring Series on Saturday and Sunday.

southern California chapter.

Malcom drove his No. 92 Nissan Sentra SE-R through rain showers and mud on
Sunday. “A car flipped two cars in front of me on the track,” he said. “I was
fighting to stay on the course when the other car went end over end and landed
hard. When a course is black flagged you think about safety, but you have to
believe in your safety gear and hope things like that aren’t going to happen to
you.”
The weather affected Malcolm’s visibility on the track. “The cage on my car
prevents me from having windshield wipers on my Nissan,’ he said. “The other
problem I had involved the intense amount of mud flying everywhere. I couldn’t
see the apex on the course. I could however, count on my K&N Air and Oil
Filters. K&N gives me more horsepower and keeps the debris out of my engine.”
Malcolm is the points leader in his class at this time. He will race at Willow
Springs International Motorsports Park in May.
