After a 2010 Pro Late Model season that was bittersweet at times,  the  former football star (hence, the nickname)  has come out of the box  smoking for 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Though winless thus far, the #12 Max Force\/ Ken  Stabler Team has run up front in each event, and captured their first  Pole in the Elantra 100 at 5 Flags on April 22<sup>nd<\/sup>. But this  Friday Night , \u201cMoose\u201d moves  back to the top of the pitbox.<\/p>\n<p>When the  back door of the hauler goes down, out will roll the #6 Chevrolet  Super  Stock used in the Hollywood movie, Final Destination 4.  Tommy Praytor,  the elder statesman on the Team, will once again climb behind the  steering wheel he handled for many years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of  people thought I  had retired, I think even more people hoped I had retired, but I don\u2019t  see that happening anytime soon. I\u2019ve had my time as the primary driver  and I loved every minute of it. It\u2019s the Moose\u2019s time now and I\u2019m  enjoying every minute of his success.\u201d   The elder Praytor stated that  Friday Nights Super Stock Showdown will be all about having a good time,  but based on the evolution of the Max Force Team in recent years, don\u2019t  be surprised to see the #6 near, or at the front of the pack.<\/p>\n<p>We only  hope the car fares better on Friday Night than it did in the movie. But  then, that was Hollywood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When the Praytor Realty Motorsports Hauler rolls in to 5 Flags Speedway this Friday Night, it won\u2019t be the only surprise in store for local [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"publish_to_discourse":"","publish_post_category":"","wpdc_auto_publish_overridden":"","wpdc_topic_tags":"","wpdc_pin_topic":"","wpdc_pin_until":"","discourse_post_id":"","discourse_permalink":"","wpdc_publishing_response":"","wpdc_publishing_error":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[22,13,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6549","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-featured","category-five-flags-speedway","category-front-page-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6549","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6549"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6549\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6556,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6549\/revisions\/6556"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6549"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6549"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6549"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
