Entering its 10th season of racing, “A Decade of Grassroots SPEED” the FASTRAK Racing Series announced during the “FASTRAK World Championship Weekend” in Beckley, West Virginia that it will sanction 3 nights of racing at East Bay Raceway Park in Gibsonton, Florida as a part of the 37th Annual DART Winternationals. The series will make its first visits in history to Florida on Wednesday, January 30th through Saturday, February 2nd at the historic 1/3 mile oval located near Tampa, Florida. “We owe this to all of our teams. This situation came about because of them and for that we are very grateful. This is a very exciting time for us at FASTRAK as we move into our 10th Anniversary Season.” exclaimed Stan Lester of FASTRAK Companies International.
East Bay Raceway Park’s Al Varnadore stated the following in a phone interview with FASTRAK Companies PR Director Wesley Outland early Tuesday morning and backed it on the FASTRAK Weekly LIVE Radio forums Tuesday night saying. “I thoroughly believe that Pro (crate) Late Model racing on Dirt is truly going to be the next big thing as it’s already taking shape all over the country. We have had other regional crate series be a part of the Winternationals in the past but we feel that the “visionary brainchild” Stan Lester who created (crate) late model dirt racing to begin with back in 2004 has now taking the original FASTRAK Racing Series through leaps and bounds and as they launch forward to their 10 Anniversary “Decade of Grassroots SPEED” I feel is the right Series to kick off a new change to open the 37th DART Winternationals to start the 2013 season at East Bay.”
Varnadore of East Bay Raceway Park also stated the following “I really believe that many people will begin to notice the FASTRAK banner start opening new dimensions and take the drivers, tracks, sponsor’s, contingencies and most of all FAN to rapidly realize that look at this series as the Top Crate Dirt Late model Series all over period!!” NATIONWIDE – is in the future for the FASTRAK Racing Series I believe also it will be right in the National attention cross hairs and spotlight with the Lucas Oil and World of Outlaws Super Late Model Series’ very soon. Super Late Model racing will never diminish but Pro (crate) Late Model Racing is building momentum every season and we noticed that with the FASTRAK Racing Series and we cannot wait to have them for the 1st visit come late January 2013 and hopefully a long lasting relationship with FASTRAK Racing Series and East Bay the “Clay by the Bay” to come!!
We have so many great things going on. Our first ever televised World Championship set to air January 21st with the 1st of 4 1-Hour HD Television episodes on FOX Sports right before the kickoff of the 37th Annual DART Winternationals at East Bay Raceway Park , now to add these events at East Bay and we will have more big announcements on to make as we get closer to the start on the 2013 season.” stated FASTRAK CEO and Founder Stan Lester.
