#77 Pro-Cast competes at the NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown

Performance Motorsports and J & M Racing Score Top West Spot
Performance Motorsports and J & M Racing came away from the NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown with a couple of pretty impressive achievements. Running two cars in the NASCAR K & N Pro Series was a major undertaking for the team as they had not run since the last Fourth of July race at Toyota Speedway at Irwindale.
Andrew Myers took charge as he started in the 13th position. An electrical problem then put him a lap down. Andrew moved his way through the field and kept the # 77 Pro-Cast Products, Jan's Towing, A-1 Party Rentals, Toyota of Escondido Camry in position to get his lap back. Getting his lap back proved to be the catalyst that took Andrew to the front. "I knew I had a good car. Justin Holchek made sure that the car would turn and that nothing would fall off it" said Andrew. "That electrical problem had me worried because the car quit running and I couldn't get it to fire." he added. " I'm so proud of my team and share this top five finish with them." Finishing 5th in the race also made Andrew the top finishing west coast car. All this came despite getting outspent by a ratio of 20-1 by all the teams that finish in front of him.
Nick Joanides, driving the # 70 Pro-Cast Products, Eagle Transportation, Jan's Towing, USKO Ford Fusion had to do it the hard way. Racing his way into the field, Nick finished second in the qualifying race on Friday night and started the All-Star Showdown in the 36th starting position. Despite having an ill-handling car Nick was able to stay on the lead lap and pass the most amount of cars earning the "Coca Cola Move of the Race Award." He finished the night 14th. "I want to thank my crew especially Chris Kurisaki and Larry Nava for giving me a car that was able to make the 225 lap showdown and run the whole race."
Performance Motorsports and J & M Racing would like to thank all our sponsors including Pro-Cast Products, Eagle Transportation, A-1 Party Rentals, Jan's Towing, Toyota of Escondido, Intouch Signs, Neo Oil and USKO for making this race possible.

Precast Concrete Barriers


A Variety of Concrete Barriers are Available in California for Highway & Military Applications
K-Rail concrete barriers are used primarily on the highway as a buffer from traffic for construction projects. K-Rail is the standard for concrete temporary barrier for The California Department of Transportation (Cal Trans). K-rail is sometimes left in place at the completion of the construction projects. K-Rail is also used in landslide areas to protect the roadway. There are many other concrete barriers of different sizes & shapes available in Southern California.
Pro-Cast Products, Inc. in Highland California (San Bernardino County) makes a variety of concrete barriers & security barriers ranging from parking bumpers to the 32” tall k-rail, 5’ high Colorado barrier, 6’ 8” tall Texas T & 10’ tall Alaska barrier. These barriers are used on highways & for military applications. Some of the barrier shapes are similar to barriers made for the war theatre in Iraq. Pro-Cast also manufactures sound & noise barriers including a sound absorbing wall. Pro-Cast manufactures custom concrete barriers as they did for the Victoria Ave Bridge in Riverside. http://procastproducts.com/
