Week four of the NASCAR Whelen All America Racing Series at New Smyrna
\nSpeedway will provide lots of fun for the kids plus some great action for the
\nfans provided by the Pro Late Models, Sportsman Cars, Modifieds and the
\nBombers.
\nA big Easter Egg Hunt will be held for the kids during intermission sponsored
\nby the fine folks with Central Florida Racing Ministries who organize events
\nand crafts for the young ones throughout the year.<\/p>\n
\nThe Pro Late Model point standings are being led by Deland’s Rich Clouser on
\nthe strength of his opening night win and a second place finish two weeks ago.
\nClouser has a five point advantage over rookie Blake Cejner and is seven
\nmarkers up on Zach Jarrell.\u00a0 Ray Black, Jr. of Palm Coast won the feature on
\nMarch 21 but plans to run sparingly at New Smyrna this season as he is now
\nrunning full-time with the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series where he is
\ncurrently seventh in points.\u00a0 The NASCAR Trucks are off this week, so Black
\nwill have the chance to go back-to-back in the Pro Lates if he wishes to give
\nit a try again this week.
\nThe Sportsman class is looking to be New Smyrna’s “premiere” division this
\nyear as 19 cars have showed for each of their first two nights of racing with
\nseveral teams yet to make their debut.\u00a0 The early-season point race could not
\nbe any closer as Apopka’s Junior Beckner holds a one point edge over three
\ndrivers who are tied for second – John Emerson, Richard Goodrich and March 21
\nwinner George Gorham, Jr. who is coming off a big win at Orlando SpeedWorld
\nlast Sunday.\u00a0 Defending track champion Donny Williams is just three points
\nbehind Beckner along with Mike Pletka.\u00a0 Expect another big field of Sportsman
\nthis week including the usual “herd” of Jim Daley\/Sandy Lee-owned cars
\nheadquartered at Sheppard Racing Enterprises in Deland.
\nJerry “The Hammer” Symons of New Smyrna Beach is in his usual spot in the
\nModified point standings… first… but he has loads of challengers nipping
\nat his brake pads including opening night winner Ricky Moxley of Hobe Sound
\nwho has a new car being put together by Wayne Anderson up in Wildwood to add
\nto his arsenal of race cars.\u00a0 Moxley is five points behind Symons after two
\nweeks of racing while Tank Tucker is third in the standings, seven markers out
\nof first.\u00a0 Once again, Joe Jacolone of Jacolone Enterprises Auto Sales in St.
\nAugustine is putting up a $100 “Hard Charger Award.”\u00a0 That award was claimed
\nlast time by New Smyrna’s Matt Wheeler who plans to be in the field again
\nSaturday night.
\nThe Bomber class has Orlando’s “Shockwave” Shane Sutorus sitting atop the
\nstandings after three race nights.\u00a0 Sutorus has just a one point edge over
\nJames Skinner while Aaron Overman is ten points back in third.
\nPit gates open Saturday afternoon at 3:30 pm with practice slated from 5-6:30
\npm.\u00a0 Grandstand gates open at 6 pm and racing gets under way at 7:30 pm
\nstarting with 8-lap heat races for the Modifieds, Sportsman and Bombers.\u00a0 The
\nbig Easter Egg Hunt will take place during intermission, so make sure to bring
\nthe kids this week!\u00a0 Following intermission the Modifieds will be first up for
\n25 laps followed by 25-lap contests for the Pro Late Models and Sportsman
\ncars.\u00a0 The Bombers round out the evening of racing with a 20 lap event.
\nAdult admission is $15 with all seniors (65+) and military with ID being
\nadmitted for $13. All kids 11 and under get in free.
\nMake sure to arrive early for a huge special being offered fans by the
\nThrottle to Bottle Pub featuring $1.00 beers and half-off all bar food.\u00a0 This
