(Carnesville,
Georgia) – FASTRAK Companies International and Lavonia Speedway
dignitaries have made the official call to POSTPONE the 2nd Annual
Charlie Mize Memorial /Shrine Benefit Race till Saturday July 6thdue to
weather. “Mother Nature seems to not want to give us a break so we’ll
try again tomorrow. Lavonia Speedway has suffered rainy conditions all
week already and Friday’s projected forecast showed no signs of it
improving. We are having race teams that plan on making the trip and
haul for this event from as high as West Virginia to even low as
Florida. It’s in the best interest to look after them before coming here
for no reason at all especially cause of the weather that is pummeling
the Mid-Atlantic the last 2 weeks now.” stated FASTRAK Founder Stan
Lester.
The RAIN DATE again is now rescheduled for Saturday July
6th as it was announced later on in the week. Be advised that in the
event that the weather shows no signs of improving or getting better for
Saturday there will be an immediate announcement put out to inform
everyone. Please follow our website at www.fastrakracing.com. The

The 2nd Annual Charlie Mize Memorial Shriners 40
Race event which includes a $12,000 purse will be paying a nice $2,000
to the top driver at Lavonia Speedway and Entertainment Complex. Also
Chris Knight and the fine staff from City Chevrolet in Charlotte, North
Carolina are stepping up offering great bonuses and awards also. We are
also honored to have City Chevrolet as the proud sponsor of the
sanctioning body for the Southeast/Mideast division for the FASTRAK
Racing Series and have stood behind FASTRAK since its inception in some
shape or form.
It’s going to be special for many reasons including
a spectacular FIREWORKS DISPLAY to close the night. This will be the
best place to see FIREWORKS in this part of Georgia for the Independence
Day weekend celebration. The race this 4th of July weekend will also be
a Shriner Benefit Race supporting the Lavonia area which helps raise
money and takes donations through fundraisers and charity events to help
families and children with health needs and finances also.
The
2nd Annual memorial race in conclusion is to truly acknowledge a highly
respected and great pioneer to the dirt racing community - Charlie Mize.
Mize did it all from promoting, managing, racing, flagging and even
announcing all over the Southeast. Everyone that knew him says he was a
down to earth person who would help anybody personal or on the track in
any way he could which people treasure mostly about him.
