New Times Announced for Sunday’s FASTRAK NE Mountain Thunder 40 at I-77 Raceway Park, WV
**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** August 13th, 2013 FASTRAK PR
(Carnesville,
Georgia) – The Management at both FASTRAK and I-77 Raceway Park in
Ripley, West Virginia have reached a mutual agreement to push this
Sunday August 18th FASTRAK Mountain Thunder 40 to be raced later in the
day than at night. It will be the first ever visit by the FASTRAK
Northeast Touring Division paying $2,000 to the winner. The race will be
a day time event and we are planning to be done before night fall
roughly around 7-8PM. The Pit Gates will now Open at 1PM and On Track
Activity will be set to get underway at 4PM. AGAIN THIS WILL NOW BE A
DAY TIME EVENT!!
“We took this change into
consideration cause this is a Special Sunday show, plus school starts
for many kids on this coming Monday and there are many race teams coming
from regions all over to run this event.” stated Joseph Rush – I-77
General Manager. “We feel by making this change, it’s only going to make
this event better for everyone involved. We are really looking forward
to having the FASTRAK NE Touring Division invade the 3/8th mile I-77
Raceway Park and can’t wait for the show.”
“FASTRAK
Teams from all the regions in the Southeast, Mideast and Northeast plus
all the FASTRAK stars based out of “West Virginia” are showing a lot of
interest in coming. This could be the biggest field of FASTRAK Late
Models at a Northeast show this year. Reason being is because there will
be NO SUNDAY RACING anywhere except at I-77 in Ripley, West Virginia.
Day time racing is totally different than night time and we planned for a
night race but with the circumstances of distance and travel for teams
and also the little ones needing to get to bed for their 1st day of
school, it’s best to run during the day.” concluded Wesley Outland –
FASTRAK PR/Media Director.
Again make plans to be at
I-77 Raceway Park as the FASTRAK Northeast Touring Division will be in
action for the 1st time ever on August 18th for a $2,000 to win event
plus the Super Lates and Semi-Lates will also be running. Pit gates will
be Opening at 1PM and the Grandstands at 2PM. Drivers meeting will
begin at 3:45PM sharp and cars will hit the track immediately after at
4PM. We are planning to be complete with the entire racing program by
7PM. For more information call (304) 373 – 1110 or go online to
