Eric Holmes works his way back in to NASCAR K&N Pro Series West championship picture

Eric Holmes won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West race at Phoenix International Raceway on April 8 and put himself in championship contention.

It was his first win at Phoenix in his West Series career. More importantly, it moved him into third place in the West Series standings and all but erased a disastrous start to the season.

He crashed and finished 20th in the West Series season opener at All American Speedway in Roseville last month.
