American Cancer Relay for Life Pro Truck 50 set for April 1 at New Smyrna Speedway | by Jane Smith
Samsula, Fla. (March 28, 2006) Saturday, April 1, the American Cancer Relay for Life FASCAR Pro Truck 50 will headline the program at New Smyrna Speedway. This marks the second race for the FASCAR Pro Trucks in two weeks after running last weekend at Desoto Super Speedway.
"We are very proud to have the American Cancer Relay for Life at New Smyrna this Saturday," said General Manager Terry Roberts. "The American Cancer Society does many great things and to have this race named for the American Cancer Relay for Life is an honor for the FASCAR Pro Truck Series.
Coming off his first win at Desoto Super Speedway for the FASCAR Pro Truck Series is George Morales. Morales is new to the FASCAR Pro Truck Series and has already proven that he is a contender for the 2006 Pro Truck Championship.
In the field Saturday night will be two youngsters that have proven that racing with the "Big Boys" is just their cup of tea. Scott Bishop of South Carolina and Chad Akins of Orlando have proven more than once that they have the real stuff of Champions.
Bishop, who has a few wins under his belt including the last night of the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing in February, was second in the Desoto race. Fellow youngster Chad Akins has also gotten his fair share of wins and both are very competitive in trucks. Watch for the No. 0 and No. 60 trucks at New Smyrna.
Some new faces have graced the field this year in the FASCAR Pro Truck Series among them David Wilson, Mike Bailey, Ricky Moxley just to name a few. Plus some old familiar faces will also be in the field Saturday night such as Jamie Skinner, the 2005 FASCAR Pro Truck Champion, Danny Foster, Scott Reeves, Jim Reppi, Caesar Bacarella.
Pit gate will open at 2 pm on Saturday, April 1 with practice for the American Cancer Relay for Life Pro Trucks alone from 3 to 4 pm with division practice to follow. There will be an on-track autograph session with the Pro Trucks. Racing starts at 7:30 pm.
