Billy Wease

Campers World      West Series

Billy "Stu" Wease is a USAC standout with tons of character and determination.  With raw talent and sponsorship appeal he is a PRs dream.

Many assume he is a pavement specialist with his wins at Iowa Speedway and the Turkey Night Grand Prix at Irwindale but his appearances in the Chili Bowl shows he can get it done on dirt.

Wease's biggest downfall is running with a USAC Silver Crown team that has no experience with the new generation Silver Crown car. In the midget and sprints the team is dominant. In stock cars, he stunned many with his 2nd place debut at Michigan in the ARCA Series but the IRL driver Sam Hornish has been given seat time instead.  Time is of the essence and if Penske doesnt pay attention, Wease could be driving Busch and Cup cars for the organizations competitors.

2004 Driving a limited USAC National Midget Car Series schedule in 2004, Billy Wease still had enough to put forth steady race results and in turn a 16th-place finish in the final series standings.
